Zach Galifianakis is the cover boy for the May issue of GQ, all to promote The Hangover 2. You can read an excerpt of the piece here, at GQ – to read the full piece, you have to subscribe online or buy the magazine. The nice GQ lady sent me the piece to review, though, and it’s pretty funny. Instead of a standard-issue Q & A, they made Zach do a fill-in-the-blank style questionnaire. There are a few particularly hilarious moments (Zach’s answers are in all-caps):

Zach Galifianakis is everywhere: on the internet with Between Two Ferns; on HBO with a recurring role in Bored to Death; on network television as two-time host of SNL; even in the English lexicon, since his character in The Hangover did no less than redefine the pronunciation of the word retard. He returns to the big screen this May with a reprisal of that role in The Hangover Part II, but first, Zach G took a few minutes to help us solve some of the world’s most pressing problems, by way of fill-in-the-blanks. For instance:

“Personally, I think Sarah Palin is MARKETABLE and I would like to BUY her.”

I also got to meet KERMIT THE FROG. He was a much bigger FROG that you’d expect. The biggest downside was he is CONDESCENDING IN REAL LIFE.

We shot [The Hangover II] in Thailand which is fun because there you can GET INTO FIGHTS WITH PACKS OF STRAY DOGS.

People should know that global warming is caused by RUSH LIMBAUGH‘S FARTS. So our response should be to mandate that HE LIVE IN A SUBMARINE OFF THE COAST OF FLORIDA.

I would be a very good dad, the kind where people would say, “That’s Zach Junior; his dad is the one who SPANKS ALL THE CHILDREN BUT HIS OWN.”

Okay, I just spent way too much time reading that and laughing. I normally don’t even find Zach that funny, but this morning he’s just cracking me up. Speaking of, how AMAZING is this photo?
