I don't want to say never, but I hope I don't become that 'take me seriously now' guy.
The Republicans didn't want the government to run your life, because Jesus should. That was really part of their thing: less government, more Jesus. Now it's like, how about more government and Jesus?
When someone goes, 'Oh, this group is really pissed off at what you said,' there's not a piece of my body that goes, 'Sweet!' That means I did it wrong. I'm just trying to make people laugh.
It's been a fascinating thing because we didn't really know how to write when we started South Park at all. It's been like, we've just sort of grown up a bit and it's amazing to just see how, if you take Butters and Cartman and put them in any scene, it works.
Before the church responded, a lot of people would ask us, 'Are you afraid of what the church would say?' And Trey and I were like, 'They're going to be cool.' And they were like, 'No, they're not. There are going to be protests.' And we were like, 'Nope, they're going to be cool.' We weren't that surprised by the church's response. We had faith in them.
My dad was just a big Joseph Campbell nut.
A scotch buzz is the best buzz in the world.
Jerry Bruckheimer creates comedy, he just doesn't realize because he's a turd.
I find Mormons adorable.
I try not to tune in to politics until it's two or three months before the election. Till then, it's like watching preseason football.
Me and Matt love to argue, but in general our sense of humor is pretty much alike.
Bargaining makes you come up with the best ideas.
It's funny because I think a lot of it is simply... We've never considered ourselves satirists, but because we're on Comedy Central and because we're South Park on Comedy Central, we can do any topic we want.
Well I looked in my moms closet and saw what I was getting for Christmas, an ultravibe pleasure 2000.
