John really came back to GQ years after his drunken interview, and boy am I here for it 100%

[@parryyotter]

Not drunken. Coked out 😬

[@nataliaalfonso2662]

He was very very not drunk. Just geeked out of his gourd.

What interview was that

[@HMF47]

Dude is the closest we have to a live action Looney Tunes character.

[@afroshark2799]

And he's Spider-Ham, essentially a Looney Tunes character. 😆

[@JoshWiseAudio]

Basically him and Jim Carrey, yeah.

[@norcalquas]

Conan too

[@taint_misbehavin]

a skinny Foghorn Leghorn that does standup and doesn't sound southern

[@Lazurmang]

I think I’d argue Johnny Knoxville is the closest to a live action looney tunes character

[@thewatermoose]

This video made me realize that I like about John is his ability to speak in a way that seems so thought out in each word and phrase only to hit you with a curveball of language that's so unique and endearing like "greeted with a blizzard of indifference" "hip dysplasia, like many dogs" idk if I'd ever be able to come up with something like that on the spot and so casually.

[@deathmaiden]

omg i loved blizzard of indifference, too ❄it really stood out

[@deathmaiden]

when he read that he went to Georgetown I was like oh, that explains a lot

[@freshavocadou9782]

I teach English as a second language for Asian students. They often try to use big words to show off their vocabulary range during speaking tests, while the rest of their speech remains casual. This results in a speaking style that is really similar to John's

0:28 At the Edmonton show there was a woman in the audience doing crochet and he kept checking in on her progress throughout the show and it was hilarious 😂

[@parryyotter]

I love that she brought crochet. Keeping her hands busy 😂 I’d be laughing too hard to focus.

[@xzonia1]

Now if I ever go see him perform live, I need to remember to bring my crochet with me. (I probably won't; my back hurts too bad to sit through a long show these days.) X)

If there’s one person that doesn’t have highly publicized faults, and definitely hasn’t recorded an hour of them talking about their publicized faults, it’s John Mulaney

[@brink1738]

"Hip dysplasia like many dogs" is GOLD

[@hannahritchie676]

It’s the inflection that insinuates that he is part of the group, dogs.

[@TheTailors1]

When I hear “hip dysplasia” I instantly think of dogs, especially German Shepherds.

[@MadDunhill]

he didn't age at all for like 15 years and then aged like 10 years in the last two years.

[@a.b7640]

Having kids will do that to you 🥲

[@matthewterlaga3022]

Being a drug addict will do that to you.

[@guillerminaramos2394]

The body can hold up under addiction sometimes as long as 30-40. And he had baby face genes.

[@deathmaiden]

i knew the comments would have this, i'm pretty sure it's just post addiction sobriety, people like age rapidly and gain weight when they get sober sometimes. i think he looks kinda great though, he's still boyish just not as babyboyish

[@averyh5303]

Am I the only one who thinks he looks kind of like he got some plastic surgery? He looks kind of...1980s action hero? For some reason? Not just the hair...the chin, eyebrows maybe? Idk I guess it matters not at all

[@beetlejuiceblues12]

[@AxelSqueeze]

He answered my big mouth subreddit question!!

[@voodude1074]

This haircut singlehandedly makes him look like 20 years older.

[@somuchtoknow1950]

Totally disagree. I love his hair

[@ef4875]

I cannot get over how much his look in this is someone who isn’t sure if it’s the 80s or the 70s, but has kinda given up (esp the hair) and has gone with what’s most comfortable in his closet. No shade, just a nod at someone’s decisions. I mean, the floppy center part over the mustard jacket

[@cryptiddy]

Settle down, Mary

[@somuchtoknow1950]

Comfort becomes the most important part of dressing at some point, not trying to look a particular way...I like his hair...

[@whatnosejob7981]

Whenever John Mulaney says “I’m gonna” he almost says it like “I’n gonna”. It’s like a different sound in between im and gonna than the rest of us. Idk if he’s noticed, but I have. Many times.

[@somuchtoknow1950]

This is common in long-life experience...

[@Iwasthedanger]

"They find me funny because they found me in their 20's, and they want to still feel young." Well that kinda hurt...I mean, he's not wrong, but dang.

The best Steely Dan song is “Sign In Stranger”? Frankly John, only a fool would say that

[@xzonia1]

My younger brother's favorite band is Steely Dan. I always think he should go watch them with John, but then I remember neither of us know this guy IRL and I can't set up play dates with men who don't even know each other, so I move on. Peg is probably my favorite Steely Dan song, but I adore Fagan's I.G.Y. Love listening to that song on repeat. :) What's your favorite Steely Dan song?

That's the most annoyingly stupid comment. It takes a great deal more courage to stay where you are and fight for your cause and your country than to leave the fight behind (if indeed that was his family's reason for emigrating and not for the more likely reason of greater opportunities).

[@kindnessreminder]

@@LewisHerd To be fair, it's also disrespectful to comment on someone's Irish heritage simply because they don't spell favorite with a "U." There are many people of Irish heritage in the U.S. who are American but also Irish.
