I would start a revolution, but I just bought a hammock.
I tend to think of myself as a one-man wolf pack.
That's one of the great things about comedy: we can - and should - say the things that other people aren't supposed to say. If we didn't do that, if we didn't push against those limits, we'd just be standing around onstage and yelling.
My headshot is a scratch and sniff, it smells like failure and onions.
I kind of put myself out there as is. I'm a quiet person. I don't know if that's surprising. I'm a Pilates junkie.
It's not good for comedy to be like, 'Thanks for liking me.' Being popular is poison.
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.
I'm Greek. My body produces feta cheese.
I don't really have a pattern yet. I don't know if I'll develop one. As far as comedic integrity, I don't have integrity in general, comedic or otherwise.
I have never been much of a groomer. I take baths a lot, but I don't wear deodorant. I don't have to. I have a miraculous body scent. I've had women smell me and say that should be bottled. I would advise guys to lay off the Drakkar, because the cavemen weren't wearing it. They might have been putting mint leaves on their balls, but [your scent] is grown naturally. I have really good dating advice.
I'm not cynical when it comes to things that are important. I'm cynical about pop culture and all that horseshit.
I just could just shave my beard, and nobody would recognize me. Although I look like Jodie Foster.
