1 | You know something is a hit comedically if you can just call up one of your friends and belt out a line from the show and you both start laughing. |
2 | I've never seen 'The Goonies.' I've never seen 'Indiana Jones.' I watched 'UHF' over and over again when I was little, and that was it. I had no time for any other movies. I watched 'Naked Gun,' 'UHF,' and 'Airplane!' over and over. |
3 | I like Velvet Underground, but I was never really hardcore into them. I like them, and I like Nico, but I won't front like I'm super knowledgeable. I just never got around to it. |
4 | I was a class clown since second grade. |
5 | ABC is owned by Disney, so it's a little more conservative than Adult Swim. Polar opposites. |
6 | From 'Chappelle's Show' to 'Tosh.0,' there's so much race comedy. It's overdone. |
7 | I was eating beans by candle light for a decade. |
8 | Hannibal Burress is my polar opposite in energy. I can be crazy, and he grounds the 'Eric Andre Show.' |
9 | 'The Simpsons' is like Charlie Parker or Marlon Brando or Richard Pryor: Comedy couldn't go back to the way it was after 'The Simpsons' came out. |
10 | I want to be remembered for my poop jokes. Those are the most important kind. |
11 | I grew up in Boca Raton, Florida - the worst place on earth. |
12 | I don't really know how music and comedy are similar. I try never to dissect it theoretically or academically. |
13 | I loved 'Space Ghost' when I was in college. |
14 | I have a karaoke punk band called The Ungrateful Dead, but we don't exist yet. |
