Hookers don't like to snuggle.
Do you ever do something, and then think to yourself: That's So Raven?
I'm writing a book about Siamese Twins that are attached at the nose. It's called: Stop Staring at Me!
When I do stand-up for a long time, I'll get burned out, then I'll get an acting gig. For me, the grass is always greener. I'd like to do a mixture of all of it. My goal is just to do small movies that I've written. That's what I'm trying to do now, just write smaller movies.
I haven't been hit since Leon Spinks hit me in '92.
You know, sometimes if you work - if you do a lot of takes and you work long hours, for me, at least, there is a delirium that starts kicking in on the fifteenth hour, and that can help. Below the just thirteenth hour is where I have a concern, because everybody's so tired.
My girlfriend looks a little like Charlize Theron...and a lot like Patrick Ewing.
I'm Greek. My body produces feta cheese.
I don't mean to be gross, but the only time it's good to yell "I have diarrhea" is when you're playing Scrabble because it's worth a shitload of points.
I am not into publicity. I'm not good at it. I get anxiety about it.
Element of surprise is really fun for me in comedy. I have to be surprised, and everything's been done.
'Baskets' isn't a CBS show. Nothing against that, but this is an off-kilter show on cable that the channel lets you do interesting things. Look, if it works, it works. And if it doesn't, it's just a miniseries.
I think sadness and anger are really fertile ground for comedy. No one is really interested in a happy person doing comedy.
I know my face is turning red. I don't want you to interpret it as being embarrassed. It's rage. The color of my face is rage.
