9 Best Lessons From Nick Offerman's AMA

Nick Offerman is more at home on Reddit than almost any celebrity. On Thursday, Offerman did another one of his AMAs, and he always seems to deliver the exact brand of humor that Reddit loves. From folksy prose to blue collar jokes to outdoorsy tips, he is fully devoted to his character. Another object of his devotion? His wife, comedian Megan Mullally, whom he adorably showers with praise whenever he gets the chance. And he does have some pretty great wisdom on romance. Pay attention, Reddit.

This time around, Offerman appeared on Reddit to promote his new Netflix special, called American Ham, which premiers Friday December 12th. He also promoted his book, Paddle Your Own Canoe, as a good holiday gift for all the Ron Swanson fans and aspiring lumbersexuals out there.

Here are some of his best answers from Thursday's AMA, ranging from the silly to the... well it's all pretty silly.

On His Wife (Megan Mullally):

Reddit User justkeeponlivin: What is the most beautiful song you've ever heard?Offerman: When my wife and I met doing a play at The Evidence Room in LA, we were backstage and she whisper/sang In The Gloaming into my ear. I busted out my MetroCard and hopped the express train to BONER TOWN.

Reddit User DisPick: What is it like being married to Megan Mullally? You both are hilarious!Offerman: I never dreamed my life could be so full of bounty. It keeps me vigilant to mind my manners so that I will not anger the greater powers. (Gandalf, Galactus, Patton Oswalt)
