Being Funny is a Noble Thing

I remember seeing this interview a few years ago and loving it. I've been open about how much I fucking hate people like Christopher Guest, who *refuses* to be funny unless it's a specific job he's getting paid for, "holding out* on being funny in any interview situation or whatever. Gee, sounds like a great guy to hang out with.

Meanwhile we have Seinfeld, arguably the greatest comedian of all time, saying that yes of COURSE he's constantly trying to be funny at all times. And unlike some comedians who try to tell us that being funny is somehow a burden, Seinfeld says what is 100000% correct, that being funny is a gift that funny people owe to the world to share! So fuck Christopher Guest and three cheers for Jerry Seinfeld.
