Animals are sentient intelligent perceptive funny and entertaining. We owe them a duty of care as we do to children.

I would call it a comedy variety show. We have some people just doing straight standup. We usually try to have one musical act of sort. So its just people being funny in different ways not just sketch not just standup not just characters all of those things.

Sometimes comics will make the observation that it's not jokes that are funny it's characters that are funny. And isn't that true! That's why I always kill jokes. I'm terrible at them because I get the joke right but I can't get the character right and it just goes down like a lead balloon.

It's funny how a chubby kid can just be having fun and people call it entertainment!

If it's inappropriate to write about if there's nothing funny about it then it's not funny.

We all know funny people who can't get it down on the page - even funny writers who can't get it down on the page.

For some reason people find me funny. It's quite hard to define why a thought is funny. It's even harder to define why a person would be funny. It's a word that I can't define at all. But whether I know quite what it is or not I seem to be it.

I was making my living from a joke about my appearance that I didn't understand and in a way still don't because when I look in a mirror it doesn't seem funny to me.

I don't happen to have a sense of humor personally so I don't know what's funny about a character... This happens to be a feature of my life generally.

You can go to a play that is enjoyable because it's funny and then on the next night you can go to a play that's enjoyable because it's 'disturbing.'
