Conan O’Brien’s Commencement Speech to Harvard

Did you know Conan O’Brien graduated from Harvard? He also wrote a few episodes of the Simpsons. Conan gave the commencement speech for the Harvard Class of 2000. Here’s an excerpt from his hilarious speech:

“Harvard graduates.. so what can you expect out there in the real world? Let me tell you. As you leave these gates and re-enter society, one thing is certain: Everyone out there is going to hate you. Never tell anyone in a roadside diner that you went to Harvard. In most situations the correct response to where did you to school is, “School? Why, I never had much in the way of book larnin’ and such.” Then, get in your BMW and get the hell out of there…You see, you’re in for a lifetime of “And you went to Harvard?” Accidentally give the wrong amount of change in a transaction and it’s, “And you went to Harvard?” Ask the guy at the hardware store how these jumper cables work and hear, “And you went to Harvard?” Forget just once that your underwear goes inside your pants and it’s “and you went to Harvard.” Get your head stuck in your niece’s dollhouse because you wanted to see what it was like to be a giant and it’s “Uncle Conan, you went to Harvard!?” (Read more at Conan’s Commencement Speech to Harvard).
