extra money never was this easy

While CNN’s viewers waited for Don Lemon to get rip-roaringly drunk, and those watching ABC made anti-vaccination remarks about Jenny McCarthy, Steve Harvey raised his own fuss on Fox. In the above clip, Harvey stirred up a slight controversy on Twitter by declaring, “Three little black dudes singing the song better than any of the white people I know.” However, the genuine ruckus went down due to his amazingly warm outfit, but first, let’s get the most obvious joke out of the way. Folks wondered if Harvey would pull a Miss Universe repeat and announce the wrong year. It’s a valid question.

Now onto Harvey’s temperature-appropriate outfit. As many on-air personalities noted, Times Square hovered around 10 degrees Fahrenheit for most of the evening. So, Harvey prepared himself for an even more wicked windchill in an all-white ensemble that inspired a wealth of jokes. A sloshed Internet had great fun with this, even if someone got carried away with the Photoshop.

Happy New Year to all! Let’s hope 2018 is a little less crazy than 2017, but with any luck, Steve Harvey may bring the world even more pimpin’ outfits in 2018.

see how I told my boss to take this job and shove it!

A month has passed since North Korea’s last missile test — of a long-range projectile capable of reaching the U.S. mainland — and many wonder whether Pyongyang’s weapons program will grow even more aggressive in 2018. Kim Jong-un’s regime has promised to develop a viable nuke-tipped missile in the coming year and is also reportedly also attempting to add anthrax and other biological weapons for an extra dose of fear.

As such, Kim Jong-un has greeted the world with a New Year’s Day address geared (at least partially) toward these goals of intimidation. His speech made hefty mention of the North Korean nuclear button, via CNN’s translation:

“The United States should know that the button for nuclear weapons is on my table. The entire area of the U.S. mainland is within our nuclear strike range. They should accurately be aware that this is not a threat but a reality … As for the areas of nuclear weapons research and rocket engineering, we need to accelerate the mass production of nuclear warheads, whose power and reliability have already been secured, and ballistic missiles.”

However, the Washington Post adds that the speech also contained a vow to use the nuclear weapons “only if our security is threatened.” This could be viewed as a positive sign, but one should also remember that the North Korean foreign minister recently declared that Trump’s aggressive tweets were “a declaration of war.” There’s no telling when that could happen again.

Meanwhile, Business Insider reports that Kim Jong-un expressed hope that the upcoming Winter Games in Pyeongchang will allow his country to “show unity” with South Korea. Of course, that’s far easier said than done (and probably mere rhetoric), but at least the entire address wasn’t filled with talk of violence.

It’s a start?

I always thought things that sounded too good to be true usually aren't told why discovered this!

With Kathy Griffin off the CNN roster on this New Year’s Eve, viewers had to settle for Anderson Cooper’s introductory banter with new co-host Andy Cohen. Their chemistry has been stilted so far (with the two men reenacting Dr. Phil’s first appearance with the Cash Me Ousside teen to cringeworthy effect), but thankfully, Brooke Baldwin and Don Lemon also made their annual appearance in New Orleans. In the above clip, the duo arrived in a pedicab before Lemon prepared to indulge in some tasty alcoholic beverages and some crawfish.

The stakes for Lemon’s impending stumble — a beloved tradition — are higher than usual, for his last NOLA go-round saw a drunken ear piercing before he proposed to Brooke Baldwin on live TV. Many speculated that he would make good on a previous promise threat and finally get tattooed, but will it happen?

People are pumped and waiting. They’re demanding a lit-up Lemon, now.

Eventually, Lemon did his “first shot” of the evening.

And here comes the obligatory “gas mask bong” moment of the night.

Sadly, the wait hasn’t been as fun as last year, since Kathy Griffin was so good at mortifying the Coop. Yet hopefully, he and Cohen won’t ever do this impression again…

nobody knows I'm unemployed because I've got so much money
