We've laughed at him on The Wood, wanted to slap him on Why Did I Get Married? and might even remember him as Ike Turner Jr. on What's Love Got to Do With It? All of these are good memories of actor Richard T. Jones.

In cringe-inducing fashion, he stumbles over the right words for the class of 2011 at the University of Maryland's University College graduation. Skip ahead to 3:00 for his "speech." And be sure to let us know in the comments how long you listen. (We didn't make it past his second minute.)
