You are laughing at our police officers but I'm proud of them,

I do what I did as a hobby as a kid, you know, and make a living at it. And I just feel like I'm one of the luckiest guys in the world 'cuz I get paid to make toys and play with them.
pain funny-relationship artist
It's a funny relationship that makeup artists have. I always feel kind of like a dentist. People look at me and think of pain.

I love making scary faces, that's just how I grew up.

I'm not a big gore hound but monster gore is different to me than killing a teenager in any way that you can when another human-like person does it. I don't know how I rationalize that really but it seems different to me.
