Patton Oswalt Becomes The First Guest To Say "Balls" On Conan's Tonight Show

thumbnail icon: Patton Oswalt Becomes The First Guest To Say "Balls" On Conan's Tonight Show

Patton Oswalt was a surprise-ish guest on Friday's Tonight Show With Conan O'Brien, where Conan joked about losing his job after Patton said that audience applause for his recent new baby was "technically for his balls." Patton also did a bunch of new bits about his new life as an exhausted, unshaven, unbathed father and how it got him out of a parking ticket, and about how he's becoming "b-word fat" -- people can tell he's fat just by hearing him say words that have a "b" in them, all the while sitting disturbingly close to first guest Ryan Seacrest. Patton hasn't made any appearances in a while, so I can't believe he didn't say anything about Domino's new edible pasta bowls. Patton's full appearance is after the jump.

Hopefully when it comes to fatherhood Patton will follow in Louis CK's illustrious irreverent footsteps (so far, it seems likely with that Matrix story).

The whole time Patton Oswalt was doing his B-word bit, I kept thinking how Seacrest was probably gonna go home and try to vomit up everything he ate that day.

I love Patton and CoCo, and thought the "b-word" thing was one of the funniest things i've ever heard from patton but I also get annoyed at rehearsed comedic bits during interviews.

am i alone in this?

we are (hopefully) millions like you.
and although i've loved Patton lately, he dragged this particular bit for way too long.

Ahaha I loved the "Willy Wonka after starting a meth habit" line.

Also, not to be an asshole, but could you please stop embedding Hulu vids? I know it's probably easier for you, but from what I've seen here's a lot of people that aren't from the US and pretty much miss out on all the TV show recaps, etc. because of it.

May I use this opportunity to point out how amazing Conan's shot at that thing Leno did with the kids was? Because it was.

I support/agree with this sentiment and the awkward sentence you used to express it!
