Conan O’Brien revealed something that might shock you about manly man and actor Nick Offerman, a.k.a. Ron Swanson on Parks and Recreation.

“Nick is passionate about two other things: working outside with his hands and reading tweets from young, female celebrities,” exclaimed O’Brien on his TBS talk show Wednesday night.

While busy with big, manly things like chopping wood and yard work, a stone-faced Offerman read trivial tweets in the two-minute segment from singing ragdoll Taylor Swift, Nickelodeon star Miranda Cosgrove, and alleged actress Selena Gomez.

Yes, the contrast between macho Offerman reading trite things like “In my hotel room, YouTubing adorable things” works. With this nailed down, Offerman should move up to longer pieces, like vapid essays about brunch from Thought Catalog.
