amazing great large parts quite
What do I think of L.A.? It's boring, with some amazing nuggets. Like there are some parts of it that are great, but by and large I think it's quite boring.
friendship thinking hills
I can only think of one wacky best friend who I thought was awesome: Rhys Ifans in 'Notting Hill.' He really nailed the wacky best friend.
thinking nuggets boring
What do I think of L.A.? It's boring, with some amazing nuggets. Like there are some parts of it that are great, but by and large I think it's quite boring.
people
They don't get along with me, but I get along with other people.
thinking cities would-be
I think that would be great, if I could be in a city and wasn't even allowed to work.
effort stage bigs
There's something funny about being on a big stage and not making a big effort to fill it up
difficult-situations difficult situation
There are a lot of difficult situations that lead to awkwardness.
character play trying
I try to have a balance of things you like and things you don't like about a character. But once you start that, all these scripts are like, "You play the douchebag friend of Ashton Kutcher." It's all these characters that are overconfident or hyper-masculine.
tvs grew grew-up
I grew up in front of a TV.
jobs writing boring
The writing is just a boring job. It's just a horrible job.
guitar going-out porch
I'm actively going out onto the porch and noodling around on my guitar.
war cutting exercise
I don't think I'm cut out to be a supervillain. [Laughs.] I think I'd be a supervillain that would exercise some form of mind control. Rather than war, I'd force people to get on with each other and I'd force people to argue reasonably about things rather than be polemical. So I'd be a supervillain that makes everyone get on, but forcefully. There would be no choice about it. No free will.
real kids sneakers
They're turnin' kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers But what's the real cost 'cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper Why are we still payin' so much for sneakers when you got them made by little slave kids? What are your overheads?!
thinking guy booty
Why can't a heterosexual guy tell a heterosexual guy / That he thinks his booty is fly?
