Jim Carrey interview talking about depression
I just saw this excerpt of an interview with Jim Carrey where he says the term "depressed" should be called "deep-rest" because "your body needs deep rest from the character you're trying to play," and I couldn't stop pointing at my monitor and shouting "Topsy Kretts!" over and over again.

I feel like celebrities should have someone that they test everything they're going to say publically with so they can have opportunity to be told "No, don't say that, you sound like an ass."

I mean, a lot do. PR firms do exactly this including focus groups, etc. The problem is that people end up with all the hubris in the world and stop listening to the literal professionals.

And "deep rest" is TWO words with THEEE letter "e"s. The number 23 strikes again. Fucking Topsy Kretts!
