hurt bridges bugs
I'd love to be animated. I've always wanted to jump off of a bridge and not be hurt, like Bugs Bunny.
laughing people way
My way of fitting in was through jokes and making people laugh.
boys style way
Everybody has their own style. If you went to the movies every week and everybody acted the same way Tom Cruise did, boy, wouldn't that suck?
sports school shoes
I love to shop, especially in retro stores. I have about a million pairs of old-school sports shoes like Adidas, so that's probably my biggest vice.
night car payment
My manager has a car payment, so I work every night.
home school class
I was the class clown at school, but at home, my family wasn't very funny.
beach school weekend
On the weekends, I would go down and play these clubs in Key West or West Palm Beach or surrounding areas of Florida and then I'd go back to school for the week.
girlfriend two dating
It's weird, I never wish anything bad upon anybody, except two or three old girlfriends.
team thinking tennis
Before I got addicted to comedy, I was seriously thinking about playing tennis full time. I joined the tennis team and played with a lot of professionals.
thinking years important
I think it's important for me, for my crew and for the audience to bring something new to each show. I have friends who have done the same act, word for word for word, for 20 years. I have a problem with that. I think the audience should see something new in each show.
real names gone
My real name is Scott Thompson. I could have gone by that name, but when I started doing comedy I thought I needed to go by something that has a little more of a hook.
rocks comedian enthusiasm
When I was younger I always thought, 'If I were ever a comedian I'd make it like a rock concert.' I wanted to generate that type of enthusiasm and excitement.
laughter world props
Everyone has the gift of laughter inside of them. All the world is a prop.
thinking laughing wells
I've experienced plenty of times when something I think is funny doesn't do very well. And there are times when something I don't think is funny makes the audience laugh so hard.
