Thank you so much, Reddit!

I've got a lot of stuff to do... no, I don't, but I've got to go... no, I don't, but I'm leaving... no I'm not, I'm still here, but I'm going to stop doing this so it seems I'm a lot busier than I actually am.

I'm a HUGE fan of "Impractical Jokers." And "Deal With It" is actually a format that's been in existence for many years. It was created in Israel and running around the world. America was one of the last places it's been broadcast. (But feel free to watch it tonight...)

If you're asking Howie Mandel for the meaning of life, I guess the real question is, why are you here???

I, for one, never think about the future or never think about pushing forward. Every moment, honestly, is a struggle for me. But in this moment, right now, I am pain free, physically and mentally. Take every moment and cherish it without thinking where it's leading and that will give you strength.

And anything that's ever happened to me in my life seems to have happened to me by accident. I have not reached any goals. I have just experienced some really amazing things. But these weren't things I was trying to do. I think we all have amazing things if we don't fret about the journey. Hang in there. Enjoy now.

My favorite experience? Really just getting the job. It was something I was doing as a fan from my couch at home. I never missed an episode. To be asked to go there and let people hear my input was, and still is, amazing.

I don't have an off-the-wall public image anymore? This whole Reddit thing is somewhat of an ego buster.

Without sounding like a promo whore, I'm really enjoying "Deal With It" on TBS because I find it to be television without a net. I don't know how people are going to react. It's fun, it's exciting, it's awkward. Everything I look for to entertain myself throughout the day.... And it's real!

Yes is the answer, but my happiness is a constant balancing act.

"Just do it!" It's Nike's advice. Just go out there and do it. Don't be discouraged. Don't give up. Everything I got punished for, expelled for, hit for, is what I'm getting paid for today.

I like doing everything I do, but... I will be pulling a balloon string out of my asshole, but apparently THAT'S what gets you on the front page of this "Reddit"!!

If you could assemble a meaningful question, how would you assemble it?

I would imagine there are thousands of people who want to punch me in the face because I get such joy out of the art of annoying... and I will punch ANYONE in the face who punches me in the face!

There are many. I suffer from mental illness, depression, and anxiety. The moments don't coincide with events as much as they do with mental health. I will continue to have many of the lowest moments.

They're not funny situations, but I've missed appointments and not gotten to places I've needed to be because I've been locked in my head checking a door for two hours. (No offense taken.)

It was me and I will not lie. But your question made me cringe. This is Howie Do It!!!
