“ I think everybody really does know how to play drunk because I think most people have when they’ve been in high school or college or something, and they haven’t really drank that much in their lives. I never got drunk before college. And then you have one beer, and you’re like you want to be wasted, so you start pretending like you’re wasted. You’re like, “I’m so drunk! I had a beer, oh my God, I’m gonna say a bunch of things that I’ve always wanted to say, now that I’m drunk.” [laughs] And then you’re like, “Wait, no, I’m not drunk at all. I just wanted to say that stuff.” So I think pretending like you’re drunk, when you’re not, comes naturally. I think most people have done it. [laughs]
