I remember reading Conan’s hilarious Harvard speech a few years ago but was unable to find a video clip of it. I finally found the video today and had to share it with you guys. This speech is just GOLD. Also, if you haven’t yet, check out Seth MacFarlane’s Harvard speech as well. How come Harvard gets all the cool speakers?

   [...] The other thing that happens is that people label you a psychology expert and probably give you more credit than you deserve. It’s like what Conan O’Brien says about how people pigeonhole him after they find out he went to Harvard: 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?” (text/video) [...]

   Funny speech! I’ve been looking for great commencement speech videos around the web and this is one of my favorites. I’ve also found Steve Jobs and Barack Obama ones that are good too. It’s interesting to see these people in a slightly different element than usual and hear their “words of wisdom” to people.

   I wish my school had Conan O’Brien as speaker… I practically slept during our ceremony — the speaker was boring and his speech incoherent. =(
