[Bit 1]

I am originally from Iran.

You may know it as Iran.

Iran so fast, and I never look back.

[Bit 2]

Yeah, but don't be afraid of me.

You know, there are no terrorist women.

Can you imagine me going, stop it?

[Bit 3]

But also, women don't work in the Middle East.

Yeah, I don't know if you've heard.

There's been some downsizing, layoffs, furloughs, stoning.

Yeah, let's not even talk about equal pay between the men and the dead women.

That's a whole nother Netflix special right there.

[Bit 4]

Yeah, so while we're on the subject of terrorism,

how come there are no good looking terrorists out there?

Where are my GQ terrorists at, huh?

What are they, calling in sick on jihad days?

[Bit 5]

And I haven't seen any gay terrorists either.

I mean, that's pretty obvious.

Like, what are they gonna do with 72 virgins up in heaven?

Give them highlights or redecorate the harem?

[Bit 6]

Persian women rock once you go Persian.

You're like, "Hey, nice rug."
