Johnny Knoxville offers life lessons on strip clubs and more

And you thought your grandfather was embarrassing.

In “Bad Grandpa,” the third theatrical “Jackass” film, out Friday, Johnny Knoxville, 42, reprises his fan-favorite character, Irving Zisman. The outrageously horny 86-year-old wreaks havoc on unsuspecting real people’s lives, Sacha Baron Cohen-style: In true “Jackass” form, there are car crashes, wedgies and even a sexually charged child-beautypageant performance. The Post caught up with Zisman to talk about his big starring role.

Why did you agree to let the cameras follow you around for this movie?

’Cause they promised to get me some [ladies]. I’ve been in a damn bad marriage for 50 years, and it sounded like a pretty good chance.

What kind of women are you looking for these days?

Whatever’s within reaching distance. Proximity is very important to me. Otherwise, I’m not that picky. Eighteen to 80, blind, crippled or crazy.

Who is the sexiest elderly woman out there today?

She’s not elderly, but Maria Menounos is pretty hot. I go more for younger ladies.

What do you think are some of the problems with the kids these days?

I don’t know what the hell’s the problem. They spend too much time on those video games and don’t read enough books.

What do you think about Miley Cyrus and all of her antics?

Well, I mean, I’d hit it. I’d tap that like a sugar maple.

Even with her tongue sticking out?

Are you kidding? That girl can lick her eyebrows.

I see that in the movie you go to a child beauty pageant. Are you a big “Toddlers & Tiaras” fan?

Hell, no. But it is a good place to meet women because of all those young ladies there with their daughters.

Where else is a good place to pick up women?

Oh, man, the bingo hall is the best place to pick up women. And this is from the old bull to the young bull: Go to the all-male strip-teaser clubs. Don’t go to the female strip-teaser clubs because you can’t take ’em home, and you’re going to blow all your money. But if you want to get knee-deep in it, you just head right down to the male strip-teaser clubs, because those women are hot and bothered.

Where do you get all your sweet cardigans?

JCPenney’s. They got everything you need. One-stop shopping.

Do you use coupons?

Hell, no. My wife always tries to get me to use those damn coupons. I ain’t carrying around a pocket full of coupons. She about drove me nuts. God. See, you get me all pissed when you bring her up. I swear, [undressing her] is like unwrapping an old piece of candy.

Like a Werther’s?

Werth-less!

How did the government shutdown affect you?

Well, I just didn’t want my subscription medicine to be interrupted. Old Uncle Sam pays for a slop jar full of Viagra for me. You would’ve seen me madder than hell if they got near my subscriptions.

I’m wondering if you ever saw Johnny Knoxville’s “The Dukes of Hazzard”?

What did you think? Hell no, I didn’t see that movie. Why you gotta bring up old s **t?
