Parks and Recreation character Ron Swanson notoriously loves bacon. Actor Nick Offerman notoriously plays Ron Swanson. College Humor further blurs the line between the role and the man with this amusing slam-poetry clip of Offerman confessing, in Swanson cadence, his love for bacon. The video is part of "Malarious," a partnership between the comedy site and nonprofit Malaria No More that's aimed at raising money to combat the disease.
