In the video, the late night host apologizes for not helping his friends score weed, saying in his nerdiest voice, “I do know of a couple dipensaries.”

Ice Cube screams at him, “No legal weed! It doesn’t taste as good.”

The trio, who were testing out the new ride sharing app Lyft, proceed to hit up the Wendy’s drive-thru and tell their driver’s friend they were kidnapping him.

Conan O’Brien Slammed For Muslim Joke About New Ms. Marvel Superhero

Conan O’Brien has deleted a tweet about the new Ms. Marvel superhero after critics claimed it was insensitive toward Muslims.

Earlier this week, Marvel announced that it will introduce a new character named Kamala Khan, a 16-year-old Muslim girl from New Jersey who transforms into Ms. Marvel after she’s suddenly bestowed with special powers.

On Friday, O’Brien tweeted, “Marvel Comics is introducing a new Muslim Female superhero. She has so many more special powers than her husband’s other wives.”

The joke drew a very mixed reaction — including an avalanche of comments slamming O’Brien for being insensitive, ignorant, “tasteless,” “Islamophobic” and even “racist.”

Many observers pointed out that Khan is an assimilated American teenager — not in a polygamous marriage — and that O’Brien should have learned about the character before joking with a questionable stereotype.

On Saturday, the tweet was deleted.

What do you think about O’Brien’s joke?
