      Really? I find him so lame and douchy that it Burns my ears to hear him talk...what was that shit about america is the only country in the World which is open to the concept of change and that the country is never finished? What is that supposed to mean? Does greek think oh we peaked centuries ago lets call it a day and Stay like we are forever? His empty words make no sense to me, if at least he would be funny but no he cant even Do that because he thinks is some cool dude so he does not play the only character role that fits him...she big boned loser that cant get it together from King of queens. He reminds me of Leonard for big bang, but Patton isnt smart, he just likes to think he can pretend to be. I have to brush my teeth now, this guy always leaves a bad Taste in my mouth. God i hate that Pudding of a man.

    I saw Patton do standup probably about 20 years ago (GW Bush was president at the time), and a couple of people in the audience obviously got offended and walked out when he started to do a bit where he was ragging on the religious right. I guess they were expecting the “King of Queens” guy to be “family-friendly”

    That's funny. His line in Seinfeld always stood out to me. He delivered it like a question and a statement.

    Quick weird fact? A long long time I lived in a little city next to Andrews AFB called Clinton, but, it was called Surrattsville before that. Legend has it there was a building there that Wilkes stayed. It was a scary legend and my sister and her friends had a slumber party where they tried to call Mary Surratt's ghost with a oiuja board and they scared themselves screaming all over the house. lol Good times....

    Patton Oswalt just got phenomenological on all our asses.

    So is Patton doing a fully dramatic role in "Manhunt"? He's done plenty of roles that had a lot of drama but there was always a comedic wink like in the clip shown.

    8:00 elevator pitch- Oswalt barefoot playing backgammon with a ghost. I’d love to see that movie.

    Germs shoutout. Didn't ever expect that on late night anywhere.
