Mel Gibson's infamous "sugar tits" quote came back to haunt him at this year's Golden Globes.

While introducing Gibson, there to present a clip for Mad Max: Fury Road, host Ricky Gervais (in true Gervais fashion) slipped in a few jokes at the actor's expense.

"I want to say something nice about Mel before he comes out," Gervais says. "Here you go -- I’d rather have a drink with him at his hotel room tonight then with Bill Cosby."

When Gibson came out and shot a sly comeback ("You don't need to leave your drink here, I'll put you to sleep another way"), Gervais returned to get the last laugh, leaning in close to the mic for a line that was instantly bleeped by NBC's censors.

As it turns out, it was a reference Gibson's infamous "sugar tits" leer from 2006.

"What the f**k does sugar tits even mean?" he asked.
