BUY IT OR SKIP IT? WIRED FEATURING STEVE CARELL !
A DEFINITE BUY!
If you can get past the fact that the interview is printed in super-small type on a black background, you’ll have a good laugh.
Wired features Steve Carell’s tips on how to get his “smarts.”
For example, Carell says “I’ve been injecting human growth hormone into my brain for several years now, with no ill effects. I feel smarter, and I often feel compelled to show people - really show them - just how smart I am.”
On listening Carell explains, “I’ve learned to appear scintillatingly intellectual by asking people questions (”Do you like piazza?”). Then I just look at them, nodding and saying “Hmmmm” and “Um hmmmm” every few seconds. Try and keep one or two things in your head to regurgitate later.”
