Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Jake Gyllenhaal appeared on Conan, where he discussed his thoughts on the comedic @JakeActivities Twitter account -- which features memes that use the actor's likeness.

Host Conan O'Brien on Thursday shared a number of the memes with Gyllenhaal to gauge his reaction. They included images of the 36-year-old appearing overjoyed at the sight of snow and laughing hysterically while looking at a sandwich.

"Someone was sprinkling cocaine," Gyllenhaal joked as the reason why he appeared so happy to be around snow in the photo. "So you would be amazed too."

O'Brien also shared a post by @JakeActivities that unveiled that Gyllenhaal was once a part of a high school boy band named Holeshot.

Gyllenhaal also shared during the late-night visit how he has no social media accounts and is not computer savvy. "Like, I'm a drag and drop kind of guy. I don't know shortcut commands. I don't command 'whatever' to get the thing," he said.

"Like, I just take my mouse and drag it over. And my friends are generally embarrassed. They're like, 'Control + V pastes it!' I'm going up to 'Edit,' then I'm going to highlight it, and then I'm going to drag it over.' Everyone's like [falling asleep]. That's the kind of guy I am," Gyllenhaal continued.
