I went up on stage, and said, "Why did the chicken cross the road? To check out the chicks." I was a genius at 10. Try telling that at 21, and you look hacky and stupid. That was the only joke I've ever told. Everything since has been character voices, doing impressions or just telling stories.
Kids, man, they're way too honest. They're like mini-alcoholics.
I'm not fat. I'm fluffy!
I love Australia. First of all, everyone is so nice. The people are down to Earth, and they like having fun with you.
I see a lot of nice hotels, but I never really get to enjoy the cities, because I have to be on a plane the next day.
I have very nice cars. I never get to drive them, because I'm never home.
I eat a lot of junk food, because that's what's usually available at 1:00am when I'm all done working.
I'm never home. I miss birthdays. I miss holidays. I miss anniversaries. I miss special moments. I'm not always there for important times, because I'm out on the road trying to make people laugh. I give up my privacy. I give up the ability to walk somewhere and relax.
Honestly, I really don't like acting. I don't enjoy it. What I do like is going to a movie theatre and seeing my face on a poster. I like seeing my name on a poster. That is cool.
It's because you alienate half the room talking about sports. Half the crowd will be against you no matter what you say.
When you're a comedian, the Holy Grail is an hour long HBO special.
I'm a big guy, but I'm really simple with the food. I'll hit the In-N-Out or just the regular buffets.
Comedians do movies and TV so that when they tour, they sell out. That's the goal: To get popular enough so the place is packed.
You wonder why I only talk about my personal life. But that's all I've ever done.
