I only wanted to get married once, so when I felt I was ready to handle it, I looked at my relationships and noticed that boyfriends get tired of girlfriends, and vice versa, but you never get tired of your friends.
Guys like Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Sacha Baron Cohen, they do things you love to watch. I like to do the other half.
I was just a lot smarter about not getting caught. I mean, I never stuck anything in my arm, but I certainly enjoyed my youth.
People have often asked if I'm gay because I don't go out of my way to spit and scratch and give people attitude.
Acting is just playing the violin in an orchestra. Directing is being the conductor.
Tony Hale is a devout Christian and is a complete retard when it comes to swearing. The script called for him to swear for about 30 seconds and he just couldn't do it.
I became an adult before I had a kid, which I highly recommend. I just like to throw her around. She's a really good snuggler, and she likes to give kisses and hugs.
Jennifer Aniston and I have always just really gotten along well... I was just fortunate to be a good fit for parts in her films.
I played a ton of team sports growing up, and team wins are just incredibly gratifying.
I have to warn you: I bet horses like a girl.
My hobbies have varied over the years. There were a whole set of new ones before I got married. Now I spend as much time with my wife, who is my best friend.
I'm not a 'celebrity'. I'm not a big huge star and so when people see me it's usually to talk about something I've done and that's a great conversation to have.
I actually enjoyed changing diapers and I enjoyed swaddling. I don't mind being swaddled either, on occasion.
I really enjoy playing that everyman part because that part is us, the audience. And you need somebody inside a comedy to tether the absurdity to reality.
