These two went deep into the pop culture vault with their jabs.
Ricky Gervais' biting commentary was as sharp as ever when he hosted the 2016 Golden Globes, but it was his quick wit that was truly on display with presenter Mel Gibson on Sunday.
The sparring started even before Gibson took the stage, when Gervais claimed he wanted "to say something nice about Mel."

"I'd rather have a drink with him at his hotel room tonight than with Bill Cosby," the 54-year-old comedian joked.
Gibson had no qualms taking the bait. Once on stage, the 60-year-old actor jabbed, "I love seeing Ricky once every three years because it reminds me to get a colonoscopy."
Gervais couldn't leave the jokes (poor as they were) at that. He came back on stage midway through Gibson’s appearance, seemingly to grab the drink he "accidentally" left on the podium -- you know, directly in front of a man who's been arrested for drunk driving and been in rehab.
The British actor whispered in Gibson's ear the question he claimed we all wanted to ask -- which immediately got censored.
But don't worry -- ET was at the Golden Globes and can tell you the exact question!
It turns out that Gervais politely inquired, "What does 'sugar tits' even mean?"

He quickly reminded us just how much that pleased Gibson (which, of course, was not even a tiny bit) when he confirmed his 'sugar tits' question on Twitter.
For those wondering what I said to Mel, it was "what the fuck does Sugar Tits even mean? He took it well. Haha. pic.twitter.com/nEEk5uGSrC

It's pure love.

If you're deciding between asking, 'Why the heck did that get censored?' or 'Why did Gervais ask that?,' let us at least refresh your memory on the latter: When Gibson got arrested in 2006 on the aforementioned drunk driving charge, he muttered to a female cop, "What do you think you're looking at, Sugar Tits?"
Finally, Gervais asked the question we all stopped caring about a decade ago.
Just add it to the list of irreverent things that came out of his mouth Sunday night -- and it's one long list, even if you only count the opening monologue:
