That we're funny all the time. I can assure you that's not the case. I make my wife (4) laugh about once a month. Some comedians are a bit like that, though, and it's exhausting. I remember talking to Jimmy Carr once in the dressing room. He was wisecracking every five seconds and I said: "Jimmy, can you just stop it?" He said: "Yes, OK, fine."
