My favorite YouTube video and the terror of my first thought

My sister showed me this video a couple of years ago and it remains my favorite clip to this day. 
First of all Louis CK is a foul comedian and I can't enjoy any of his other stuff because he's normally very raunchy and I don't like raunchy.  This clip was from Conan's show, so it's relatively clean.  
But this interview is in my head and I think of it regularly when I'm flying or waiting for my phone to load something.  It taught me one of my favorite insults - "you non-contributing zero". 
Not that I go around insulting people on a regular basis. Out loud, that is. 
I think it, though.  The thoughts that bounce around in my head are often terrifying.  Those first thoughts that most of the time never get spoken but sometimes do come out of the mouth and then I'm even more horrified at myself and wonder how that got past my filter and boy, what a mess I'm going to have to clean up now.
