Video: Did Tim & Eric Finally Outweird Conan?

It’s hard to faze Conan O’Brien. Unlike Jay Leno or David Letterman, the prime-time talk show host not only courts bizarre guests, but openly cultivates his own brand of absurdest comedy (masturbating bear, anyone?).

So the challenge for weirdos extraordinaires Tim & Eric last night was, “How do you freak out the unflappable Coco?

We’re not even sure if they did. But they had a great strategy: play it (relatively) straight for 2.5 minutes, then leave, then come back, then just cut the interview off at the 5 minute mark. It at least threw Conan off his game for a second, which means that Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim have officially “won” and now Conan will have to appear on their Adult Swim show. That’s how these things work, right?
