Conan O'Brien Rocks My Socks

Colleges and Universities A-Z Harvard University
1

<p>As many of you probably know, Conan O'Brien attended Harvard (c/o '85). He also gave a commencement speech to the graduating class of 2000. For those who don't watch Late Night, he's pretty much a comic genius.</p>

<p>Read the speech here: <a href="http://www.february-7.com/features/conan.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.february-7.com/features/conan.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>It's long but it's worth it, I promise. :)</p>

<p>and he's going to speak at my graduation (stuyvesant)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

3

<p>My favorite thing he ever said was in a graduation speach to Oxford (or maybe Cambridge) "You might be the smartest, most successful students in England, but no matter how hard you work, no matter how hard you try, you will NEVER be an American!"</p>

<p>(Or something along those lines)</p>

4

<p>He was in my mom's class. Apparently he was kind of a dork back then lol.</p>

5

<p>hahaha with that poofy red hair.. how could he be anything but.. :p</p>

6

<p>He's /still/ a dork.</p>

7

<p>Yeah but Conan O'Brien is comedy genius. I loved that speech - and the Ali G one was brilliant too.</p>

8

<p>Wait why did he give a graduation speech to oxford or cambridge?</p>

9

<p>Conan O'brien is the best.</p>

10

<p>Conan O'brien is boring .......that's what he is......
Jay Leno.......NOW THAT IS COMIC GENIUS....no doubt about it!!!</p>

11

<p>He's a dork...what else could a comic genius of his caliber be?</p>

12

<p>sonbac is obviously delusional.</p>

13

<p>^^That's why his show is on so late..........Jay Leno gets THE best time slot because he's way more funnier and Conan O'Brien looks like a woman and he's not very funny....Letterman's top ten is funnier and that's not good........
P.S. Bet he tries almay.</p>

14

<p>while conan's speech is hilarious, i think jon stewart owns them all</p>

15

<p>hear hear!! Jon Stewart pwns em all. Just kidding. He OWNS them. And S. Colbert is pretty good too.</p>

16

<p>O'Brien is taking over for Leno in 2009</p>

17

<p>In Your Dreams, Leno & with Kev make the ultimate FunnyMan Team.
You should watch it sometime:> )</p>

18

<p>In the spirit of the recent Leno/Conan debacle,</p>

<p>Can we show some Crimson support by cheering for Conan?</p>

<p>I’M WITH COCO!!!</p>

<ul>
<li>Yes, I realise this thread is 2 years old. Clearly I’m a serial digger of the archives. :P</li>
</ul>

<p>Conan= President of the Lampoon
Jeff Zucker= President of The Crimson</p>

<p>ironic isn’t it?</p>

20

<p>^Ooh. Yes that’s true. How very ironic.
Well some have suggested that all this is one long elaborate prank by Zucker to get back at Conan for his Lampoon shennenigans… :P</p>
