stupid hangover insult
You are literally too stupid to insult.
moving creative trying
Getting any movie made is just like trying to push a giant boulder up a mountain, and there's so many moving parts. Obviously, there's the creative side, and then there's the logistical side, and they're both colossal.
fun way conflict
Improvisation is about finding the best joke or the silliest way to get something across. Improvising conflict is always fun because you can just go for it.
sick may thailand
I love travel. I love to go spend time in new places. And even though I got horribly sick in Thailand, and it was the sickest I may have ever been in my life, I still loved the trip.
woven narrative way
I loved the show Lost, in part because the writers were so nimble in how they would take things from previous episodes, that probably weren't created with any intent towards a larger narrative, and they would get woven into narratives in a really elegant and exciting way.
profound comfortable
I have profound respect for Sacha Baron Cohen, but Borat is not a particularly comfortable movie for me to sit through.
fun math thinking
I found myself often asking the question, "Who deserves to be made fun of?" Depending on your mood, the answer can be no one or everyone. It took me a while to understand the math of how those field pieces came together. I don't think that ridicule is ever funny, but there are times when that gets the biggest response.
thinking news
[I read news] because no one's going to tell me what they really think of something.
imagination capture miniatures
As a hobbyist, there's something about miniature anything that captures my imagination.
nerd toys kind
I've always been into toys and kits and models. I'm kind of a toy nerd.
heat-and-humidity people lovely
I've been to Indonesia, but I've never been to Thailand. I hear the people are lovely, the food is delicious, and that the heat and humidity are lethal.
new-york real editing
Going into editing when I got to New York was part of that. I guess I just kind of wanted to know as much as possible. But I have a real love of the whole process, from start to finish. So right now, I fit into the acting part of the process, but I wouldn't rule anything out. I'm enamored with how the whole thing works.
air editing giving
Sometimes you just create a joke out of thin air in the editing room. So I'm really glad I've had that experience. It gives me a little more confidence in front of the camera.
fields shows daily-show
Working on The Daily Show, I co-produced all those field segments, and that's another huge thing.I probably did more than 100 field segments.
