thinking half dinner
Women always think that I'm Chandler, so if I don't joke around for half an hour they think that something's wrong. Then I explain that I don't have comedy writers scripting everything I'm saying at this particular dinner.
people helping behinds
When I die, I'd like' Friends' to be listed behind 'helping people.'
thinking talking causes
I can tell if someone is talking to me because I'm on 'Friends' or cause they just think I'm neat. You know I don't think I've ever spent more than five or ten minutes with somebody who was ogling me because they recognized me from the show.
character people broken
I gravitate towards sort of broken characters who try to be better people.
needs remember
I don't need to be reminded that I was on 'Friends.' I remember - some of it, anyway.
player tennis ottawa
I was a very good tennis player in Ottawa, Canada - nationally ranked when I was, like, 13. Then I moved to Los Angeles when I was 15, and everyone in L.A. just killed me. I was pretty great in Canada. Not so much in Los Angeles.
hair scary facts
I am fine with the fact that some of my hair is gray. If it was all gray overnight, that would be a scary thing.
gay pages internet
I've just found out there are pages on the internet dedicated to whether I'm gay or not.
actors worst autopilot
As an actor, being on autopilot is the worst thing possible.
couple school kids
I grew up babysitting and always enjoyed it. I love family. A couple of my closest friends have kids, and I'm their godfather, and that's one of my greatest pleasures in life, just picking them up from school and hanging out with them.
trying gone whole-life
If I hadn't had the experience of being famous, I would have searched for it my whole life. I would have just gone on and on trying to find it.
