One of the things that makes Ryan Conklin such an interesting person is that underneath his sometimes hard and sometimes soft exterior, he has a whole other personality that arises when he lets his guard down or sometimes when he has been drinking. One of the times when Ryan was under the influence and let his other, inner self show through was the night in Gettysburg during The Real World Brooklyn when he and the cast returned to their motel rooms after a night out at a local restaurant/bar. On that night, Ryan let his rather amusing, "angry diva" persona come out. It started when Ryan noticed that he was missing chicken wings that he had meant to bring back to the motel room. Sloshed, he believed for some reason that Devyn Simone had stolen and eaten the wings. He called her room from the boys' room to ask her why she had taken them. At first Ryan pretended to be an intoxicated "Tom from housekeeping", in order to find out who it was who was answering the phone. However, a drunken Ryan is not easily disguised and so Devyn, realizing who it was, told him to shut up and go to bed.
Ryan was not ready to give up and he insisted on solving the mystery of his missing wings. He slurred his demand for Devyn to explain why she had taken the inexplicably important serving of food. In his room, Chet Cannon told Ryan to come to bed because they all had to get up early in the morning. Scott Herman told Ryan that Ryan himself had merely left the wings at the bar.
Ryan replied to Scott with the grand temper of a premier drama queen. Speaking just short of "Oh no you didn't!", Ryan told him, "I brought them in the car. B|tch!"
Ryan then went on to rage about his original target, Devyn. More or less speaking loudly to himself, he said Devyn eats everybody's food because she is a "fat ass". Then after a few random, stream-of-consciousness non-sequiturs, Ryan said that it was going to catch up with her because "nobody thinks you're f'ing hot! Devyn, you look like a f'ing, you look like Eddie Murphy on a bad review! You look like Eddie Murphy on a bad movie!" Appropriately, JD Ordonez with similar but inherent gay sensibilities, screamed with laughter. Seeing he had a receptive audience, Ryan continued the tirade with, "Devyn has the face of a man... who eats all my food. And she has the feet of a newt." Wanting to even more strongly condemn her feet, he searched through his mind with some difficulty and finally settled on saying they looked like diseased warts.
Apparently Ryan doesn't think highly of Eddie Murphy's face or at least Eddie Murphy's face on a woman, because he continued to compare Devyn to that. "Her face looks like a bad Eddie Murphy film. Both of them. She's got all the roles, yeah, for a f'ing sellout. B|tch! Steal my chicken! Kiss my ass. Yeah, you can eat all the chicken that you want. It's my chicken, and you look like a f'ing... you look like Eddie Murphy. Devyn..."
With a little more gesticulation, a little practice, and a little more coherence, Ryan could snap with the best of 'em.
