Most people presume my mustache is not real because it's much darker than my regular hair.

From John Hodgman

My type of humor is me not caring whether people know what I'm talking about or not.

From John Hodgman

Any time you try to create an Internet meme, automatic fail. That's like the worst thing you can do.

From John Hodgman

The villain of any story is often the most compelling character.

From John Hodgman

What would I put in a museum? Probably a museum! That's an amusing relic of our past.

From John Hodgman

I do not think that a museum needs to engage with pop culture in order to make itself interesting to museumgoers. Museums are already interesting and engaging with pop culture for its own sake is just a quick way to seem and become dated.

From John Hodgman

I actually own a copy of my own book; that's how dedicated I am as an author.

From John Hodgman

When you think about it, the end of the world is a little bit like death: We all know it's going to come eventually, and as we get older, we feel we see the signs more and more distinctly.

From John Hodgman

I think that obviously, there is a perverse attraction to a fundamentally changed world or the end of the world. There is a death wish, a perverse death wish. Not just for ourselves, not just for the movie 'Death Wish,' but for the end of all human life.

From John Hodgman

Here's the thing: I am not only a creature of civilization, I'm an asthmatic person. I will only live so long as I have stockpiled the proper inhalers. I'm effectively a cyborg. You know how in Jurassic Park, they bred those dinosaurs with the lysine deficiencies, so if they ever got off the island, they'd die? That's me.
