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.

One lion thinks it's just hilarious to tackle us. He's very funny about it... and we always know when it will happen.

I wouldn't totally rule out doing Letterman or the Tonight Show if I had a set that I just happened to write that I thought was funny but was still appropriate for network censors. But I'm not going to go out of my way.

But if something funny happens I can't resist. I have to tell the people.

I didn't plan to be the rude middle-class comedian. You write a certain type of joke that you find funny and mine happen to be often rude. Yes it's juvenile but that's me.

And at the time it is funny how you can look at something and say for example with my shoulder injury when it first happened I said this is the worst thing that could happen to me. Why me why now? Now I look back and say it was probably the best thing that happened to me.

Funny things tend not to happen to me. I am not a natural comic. I need to think about things a lot before I can be even remotely amusing.

It sounds funny but the 2008 Olympics were something that just kind of happened and I was lucky they came at a point when I was uninjured and well prepared. As a gymnast you can't ask for much more.

It's funny with fiction - once you cut something it hasn't happened anymore.

When human judgment and big data intersect there are some funny things that happen.
