The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
Pete Holmes as Lightweight James Bond. It’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in my life.
The funniest book I’ve ever read …
This Is Going to Hurt, by Adam Kay.
The funniest TV show I’ve ever seen …
I’m going to go hack, but it is South Park.
The funniest film I’ve ever seen …
Tag. TAG! T-A-G! It went so under the radar this year and blew my mind how funny it was. It’s got genuine heart and it’s the closest ever actual representation of what real-life male friendships are like on screen that I’ve ever seen. It’s hilarious! Ed Helms, Jake Johnson who’s from New Girl. Who’s that big, sexy guy that was in Mad Men? Jon Hamm! He’s in it. Isla Fisher, Hannibal Buress and Jeremy Renner.
The funniest person I know …
The funniest thing that shouldn’t be funny …
Death. Or marriage proposal rejections. It’s hysterical. If you go on YouTube and just watch people going down on one knee after like three months, IN PUBLIC. It’s so good. Because it’s never people that are in love. It’s always just some fucking moron who’s like: “Sarah, I’ve been with you for two months now and you’re the absolute … ” And you’re just like: “You absolutely deserve this.”
The funniest word …
Cahoots! I’m trying to bring it back. If you got two mates just being dicks, you just say: “They’re in cahoots!” It’s a great word.
