I'm proud of The Hangover, but to be in movies like this, which are really the only places I can get work, it's really quite the opposite of what I am. I like sensitive art-house movies. I'm not even much of a partier. I mean, I'll drink myself into oblivion alone in my car.

But comedy is like music, it appeals to some people. Some people like Creed, those people are usually pretty stupid. But they probably also like Carrot Top. I would say that they're part of the same ilk.

I have to stop crying when I watch The View. It's not because of the topics at hand, I just feel sorry for that couch.

I've never been in love... But I imagine it's similar to the feeling you get when you see your waiter arriving with your food
