 I also try to think of ways to articulate the joke more economically. |
| In New York there isn't that weird palpable competitive thing where it's friendly but everyone isn't trying to top one another with jokes when you're just hanging around. |
| I went to a bunch of marches in New York and Washington, and you know I believe in the cause, but to march with those people takes a lot of compromise on my end. |
| I'll think of the idea and then I'll write something down, then within that there will be a joke or two which is the original thing which I thought was funny. |
| Nobody is going to be as bad for free thinking, right-minded individuals than George Bush. |
| As for Tenacious D, of course it could work as a full length movie; all it requires is a great writer and great director with an ability to think outside of conventional film comedy. |
| Sketches have characters, exits, entrances and are vastly different. |
| Originally they wanted me to be Buster but I really like the Tobias part. |
| I love doing stuff with Todd Barry and Jon Benjamin. We give the stage to good bands and funny people. |

| I remember being a kid and the Vietnam War was huge and looking at Watergate. |
| Besides if people really want to support the troops they would vote democrat. |
| You can't just yell jokes at people. |
| I lived in LA for almost nine years and if I never went back there again it would be fine. |
| Occasionally I'll watch Fox News for as long as I can tolerate it, or CNN. I'll watch until I get infuriated, but you got to know what they're talking about and what they're not talking about. |
| There were a number of referendums in '98 that most of the things I voted for passed. That's very satisfying when you feel that most of the country is in step with your views. |
| I'd be curious to find out, but I don't think people in the entertainment industry are proportionally more or less serious politically than anyone in the landscaping industry. |
