I think comedians get too much credit or too much criticism for the style of comedy they do, and they generally do the style of comedy that works for them.

I believe that comedians do what they do, and then they get credit or criticism for doing it. There's nothing planned about this.

How'd we come up with the robe? Was some guy just like, 'Hey, I've got an idea! Why don't we make a coat out of a towel? You can have a little belt that goes around. You could dunk the belt in the toilet! Have a toilet belt.'

There should be a children's song: 'If you're happy and you know it, keep it to yourself and let your dad sleep'.
