Aziz Ansari loves him some Reddit; he even used it as a research tool for his book, Modern Romance, which came out Tuesday. He made himself available—slightly late, due to a shoot—on Friday to face the world and field any question. No topic remained untouched, including his fervent love of pasta and tacos. Here are our six favorite moments from it.
