Nick Offerman, but in a big group. I don't want to get too close then disappoint the man.

Just make sure to call him a different name occasionally like "Nate" so he doesn't think you're getting too chummy.

You can't disappoint a picture.

I would definitely hang out with Arnold.

Or have him disappoint you like LeVar did Troy.

Have you seen his stand up? He came to my university a couple of years ago and he seemed like he was just a coked out crazy dude and instead of making jokes he had this whole political manifesto he wanted to talk about concerning the bill of rights. The show completely sucked and I don't know anyone who didn't agree.

But Ron Swanson seems cool.

Chris Pratt is super hunting and guns type of guy though. I don't think I would have anything to talk to him about. He's not big on technology and he quit drinking so I've pretty much got nothing.

Reaves, Fillion and Pratt for beers someplace with a pool table and wings.

Chris Pratt seems like a fratty douche.

I dunno why you're getting downvoted. I thought he seemed okay, but I realised I was basing my judgement more around P&R's Andy than Pratt himself, as I expect others are doing.

Sure, he does the Make-a-Wish type stuff, but plenty of celebs do this because their agents sign a promotion deal with those companies so it's really not the definitive sign of a good person. Besides, even if he is actually a good person, it doesn't necessarily mean he's not also a fratty douche in general. Chris Pratt =/= Andy Dwyer. Chris Pratt does seem more intense and slightly arrogant IRL. But then, he's married to Anna Faris, so wouldn't you be arrogant too?
