It's not easy to be the funny kind of creepy, but trust me — there are quite a few funny creepy quotes that manage to pull it off very nicely. Sure, it's hard to say where it's appropriate to draw the line between funny and creepy — so much so, I'm sure people will disagree on the matter. I do think the authors of these quotes handle the distinction nicely, though. Sure, they're all different: some of them talk about creepy people, some of them get a little creepy, and some of them talk about what creeps them out. But, the one thing they'll all do is put a smile on your face. No, not a Chuckie doll smile. A normal smile — a normal, horror-free smile.

These quotes come from a whole host of actors, singers, authors, and comedians — all people who know quite a bit about creepiness. How could they not? They have dozens of people stalking them on the daily... yes, I'm talking about the paparazzi. That's a pretty creepy life to live! Fortunately, though, no matter how creepy their lives have become because of their fame, they've clearly managed to keep up a good sense of humor about the whole thing. Hey, if you can't beat them, laugh at them, right? Or, with them?

I guess it doesn't matter, so long as you're laughing.

I continue to call it the baby's room because it confuses people and it's creepy." — Amy Sedaris
