It's crazy how Conan effortlessly follows him "into character, " the bit wouldn't work without his being able to 'follow' Nick's lead so well

[daysandnights]

This wasn't an act, Nick Kroll was just really hungry.

[anonymouse]

"This coffee is nice cause it's not that hot."

[Dehumanized]

Gotta give him props for making something so mundane, hilarious

[BubBaL]

"steak grey thin hard to cut with weird pieces of fat on the side please" lmfao

[YoDeMoxie]

That french fry flick. My god. I remember watching this when it originally aired. The amount of tears that flowed down my cheeks of laughter.... Bless you Nick Kroll.

[kimgaii]

"that's why I'm the boss", quick thinking. made me laugh lol

[leftgerm]

hahah I just realized that in movies from the 70's they do eat fries like that. hillarious

[stevebrule]

The steak part killed me lol, thats a classic denny's style steak

[moviedude]

He nailed it!
He really captured that " one fried entry away from a gastric bypass" the avg 70's era protagonist embodied

[kingmike]

he really is a boss with on the spot acting skills.... he's a good actor

[drivewaystar]

They way conan losses it when nick throws that first fry into his mouth is priceless

[ms]

I will admit that I did not think this would be funny at all, and then laughed out loud the entire time!!

[greenkorn]

Kroll's genius is extremely undermined. It's not so much that he's original, it's that he's great at making believable characters come to life.

[snzzo]

I was expecting this to be really stupid. But damn, , , , that is exactly how everybody ate in 70s movies lol...
Brilliant :D

[Musicmonk]

Man, I thought that bit was going to go nowhere. Great Improv.

[ahpacific]

Should be called the "the old school Jersey Italian Eater"

[nemrcomedy]

That's why I'm Tha Boss! HAHAHAHAHA

[michaelbarrett]

HAHA that is how they ate in 70s movies.  He just needs to add some chest hair, a gold necklace and a pinky ring.

[glasswolf]

I was chuckling pretty hard the whole bit, but it wasn't until the end when he said "THAT'S WHY AHM DA BAWSE" that I just lost it. XDD
