Ricky Gervais said people say you shouldn't punch down. What if I have to punch a midget? Exactly. Maybe I like him too, but I'm not going to not make fun of him because of that. That thing he did was funny. And there's a million different angles and people laugh at different things and even the same thing for very different reasons. You know, comedy is a very, very mysterious thing. It's such a nerdy thing to dive into.
