moving thinking progress
I think if I pick the right thing to spend my time doing, then time moves differently, because I really can get fully immersed in things and feel very alive and challenged, but in a good way. I feel a sense of progress.

It's hard to know what's gay in life. Boxing. That's two men fighting over a belt.
gun water trying
When watering your plants, try to talk to them - say something like, Hold it right there and then shoot them with water gun.
years decision dumb
It's weird to make a decision where everyone in your life disapproves, pretty vocally and directly. They said, "You've got one year left. Just do it." I had a full scholarship so I didn't have to pay for it. They asked, "Why don't you just get the degree so you can have it?" And I said, "You don't understand. I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do and now I know. I have the answer and it's dumb to waste any more time."

When I trip, I feel like that's the world saying come here for a second. It just pulls me closer for a second, yeah what do you want? I just want to remind you that you're uncoordinated. I'm aware of that, thank you... can I go now? Yeah, you can go, but never ever try to outrun me. Ok, world, see you later. Yeah, I'll see you in about 50 years.

I went whale watching once. It was very similar to watching people on a boat become disappointed.

Timing is everything. That's a cliche. Now. If I'd said that a long time ago, I'd have been original.

I think hair gel was invented to make it easier to identify assholes from a distance.

I love Steven Wright. I was in high school in the '80s, and there was a lot of stand up on television.

If I were blind, I'd wear a blindfold all the time.
