Father's Day just be Mother's Day the sequel.
I did a club one night - the speakers were old as hell. My jokes were coming out in black and white.
I don't consider myself a stand-up comedian. I consider myself a performer; a comic as opposed to stand-up comedian. Stand-up comedians stand there and do their bits; I break every rule in creation. If there's a rule that can be broken in stand-up, I'll do it.
I drive a big Dodge truck. I drive American cars.
I'm on my version of the protein diet, but there ain't no protein in it. It's a Krispy Kreme doughnut between two Cinnabons. And you soak it overnight in Red Bull. Then you chase it with a Snickers.
I believe, even when I'm doing my standup or my acting or whatever I'm doing, I believe in painting pictures.
I have big hands. I can't do the touch-screen thing. I'm a button guy. I want to press buttons.
I may even show up behind the camera. I love to put things together; I love to give direction. I have a great eye for pace.
I thought 'Pineapple Express' was hilarious.
I try to dress smooth, I try to keep my face shaved, I try to keep my head cut. I try to do all the things to keep it smooth going!
I was the hallway clown in high school.
I wish black people had a flag they could put into the ground, like when the troops stormed Iwo Jima.
I'm trying to be the Jay-Z of comedy one day. I don't know if there's any comedy moguls out there, but I would love to be the first comedy mogul.
It's not even race; it's a certain type of person that gets 'Pootie Tang.
