mind generations fans
I'm a huge Groucho fan. There were some great comic minds that would transfer into any generation, and Groucho is certainly one of them.
funny pain guy
It's painful for me to watch someone who isn't funny. It's horrifying to sit in the back and watch some guy who just totally sucks.
talking bullshit people
I don`t like people that make their living talking about bullshit, and you see them in many shows that are made on the same subject. When you go looking at UFOs or bigfoot or what-have-you, there's just nothing there.
selfish thinking interesting-conversation
There's a lot of people that I disagree with that I think I could have interesting conversations with. What I don't want to get into is manufactured conflict. I would much rather talk to someone like Dr. Rhonda Patrick or Randall Carlson and be mesmerized by information. I guess in a way that's selfish, or maybe not objective of me. The older (and hopefully wiser) I get the less interested I am in conflict. I don't mind disagreeing with people in a civil way, but I definitely don't want to go out of my way to have an argument unless it's a really important subject.
people boards culture
You're sort of programmed a certain way because of your environment. That's all you know. But we don't have that anymore because of the internet. Because of the internet we're all communicating with each other all across the board, so you're getting information from people all around the world, hitting a much more diverse slice of culture.
jobs blow helping
Maybe we can combine 2 things that everybody loves. Helping out the poor and blow jobs.
reality way ridiculous
Reality really is theater. There's no other way to describe it. It's all so nonsensical, ridiculous and chaotic.
faces earth cult
Every single religion that has ever been on the face of the Earth, ever, is a cult. That’s all they are.
ideas tough action
Apartment living is tough action. Just the whole idea that you share a washer and dryer always freaked me out.
ambition work-out guy
I really never had any ambitions to be a standup comic. I was talked into it by guys that I used to work out with.
night thinking speak-your-mind
The audience changes every night. You're the same person. You have to speak your mind and do the stuff that you think is funny and makes you laugh.
ideas growth have-faith
Faith itself is a horrible mechanism that stunts the growth of ideas. It also stunts the act of questioning, and it does this by pushing the idea that you have to have faith - and that nothing has to be proven.
funny hard-work goal
That's my only goal. Surround myself with funny people, and make sure everyone has a good time and works hard.
art thinking mma
There's a very famous Miyamoto Musashi quote. "Once you understand the way broadly, you can see it in all things." The idea is once you understand what excellence is all about, whether it's in painting, or carpentry or martial arts, that you see how that excellence manifests itself in any discipline. I think that all the different things that I do enhance all the other things that I do.
