Before people figured out I was funny, I got cast quite a bit as either a rapist or serial killer or the guy who catches those people.

I made an executive decision in college when I learned how behind I was in the world of books, films, and music because of my rural upbringing. I really reduced the amount of time that sports took up in my life.I still have some Faulkner to get through.

There's a lot of common sense ... which I feel like we have lost touch with.

I always drastically changed my look for each role. It's gotten a little tedious in real life, also, because there's no hiding.

I have a corn creamer that I love. It extracts pulp and juice from kernels, and I simmer that down into a creamed corn that has an almost mashed potato-like consistency. I add butter and hit it with chopped fresh chives at the end for an accent of color.

I feel it's important to point out that I've earned my humility by being a jackass - like, I trip and fall on my face and say, "Oh, right. Don't think you're a big shot, because you've got a bloody nose now." So it's hard to say.

I learned the word non-conformist in fourth grade and immediately announced that I would grow up to become one.
