thinking found-you people
The one thing I've found you really can't joke about - and people think it's death or something - is money. No one thinks it's funny, whether you have it or you don't. Money is just something no one seems to like joking about.
thinking people hecklers
I think a theater show is a pure version of me doing my material. The theater crowd is a bit more polite, there really aren't hecklers, and there are a lot of people there to see me, and they're excited about the jokes and hanging out with me for a show.
thinking sharks care
I didn't care about the backlash. I think the reason it was so severe was because they didn't know anything about me in New Zealand. If I had made jokes about a shark attack in the US, no one would have cared.
world horrible horrible-things
The world is full of horrible things...
thinking people laughing
Everyone has the same kind of fears; everyone has the same big problems in the world, which is, like, fear of death and I hope horrible things dont happen to my family, but they do. And I think people laugh at them as this great release.
fun play villain
It seemed fun to play a villain on stage and I wanted my jokes to be so good that I could just calmly tell them on stage.
dog night homeless
I spent all night feeding the homeless to dogs.
tattoo want irony
I want to get a tattoo of the word irony, only misspelled.
silly dark people
I do dark [humor]. I like people who are silly and weird and people who are surprising and good at what they do.
thinking one-line firsts
I think brilliant stuff comes out of working with limitations. One liners are very limiting, but that's what drew me to them in the first place.
family simple want
My sister is going to have a simple wedding. Just immediate family. And whoever the hell would want to marry her.
men ideas guy
I like the idea of being the funny guy in the dramatic thing, playing a hit man with a weird sense of humor.
girlfriend lying guy
I had to break up with my last girlfriend for lying about being raped by her neighbor. But I've met her neighbor, he's a cool guy. Not like her other creepy ass neighbor though...
jobs thinking people
There is nothing that's off limits. If people think something is off limits, I make it my business to go make a joke about it; that's my job.
