5 Celebrities Who Should’ve Been Time’s ‘Person of the Year’
Despite 4 Chan's successful attempt at getting Kim Jong-un to win the most votes for Time magazine's Person of the Year, the magazine is going with President Obama. Again. Sheesh, don't pick the dictator everybody voted for, but that doesn't mean you have to pick somebody who's already won. Here are five other perfectly viable candidates, in our opinion. Maybe we should start a campaign next year.

14 Creepy Santas Who Might Give You Nightmares
We love Santa. We really do! He's probably the coolest old guy we know, spending his life making presents, managing elves and eating cookies. Truth be told, we're sort of jealous. The jolly old guy usually looks bright and cheery and not all that scary, which is yet another reason we're fans.

15 Gingerbread Houses That Are Way Better Than Ours
There's something about the holidays that puts a lot of us here at TheFW into extra crafty moods.

Either way, trying to get all creatively crafty is just plain old fun.

The Best and Worst of the 12-12-12 Hurricane Sandy Benefit
Yesterday's 12-12-12 benefit concert for Hurricane Sandy relief raised over $30 million dollars, but it wasn't all good. We're still cringing for Bobby Moynihan's awkward appearance as his 'SNL' character "Drunk Uncle," for example.

17 Houses Decked Out for Christmas
No matter what the holiday, we always love getting extra festive. It's not like we need an excuse to wear awful Christmas sweaters or take part in a harmless snowman prank, but doing that stuff during the season makes us look a little less crazy. The season also provides the perfect excuse to go way overboard in the decorating department.

10 Weird Christmas Finds on Pinterest

11 Adorable Elf Babies From Instagram
Santa's elves are the greatest. For starters, they work super hard in his workshop all year round making our Christmas presents and baking delicious treats so Santa maintains that cookie belly. However, we do think these charming people are highly underrated. They're arguably the most charming part of Christmas, after all! That's why we think it's important to pay homage to the little guys and girls through one of our favorite combos of all-time: babies and costumes.

12 Santas Who Might Be Drunk
Even though Santa has an awesome job, it can be super stressful at times. Sure he's a jolly ol' guy who gives out presents for a living, but when Christmas Eve rolls around, things can get really tricky. If you think about it, the guy has to pull off delivering like, millions and millions of presents to people all around the world, so of course Santa needs to relax a bit post-Christmas. You know-- hop in the jaccuzi, get a massage or down a couple dozen chocolate chip cookies while the elves give him a manicure.
However, there are times Santa goes a little overboard with this whole "relaxing" thing, and he knocks back a few too many drinks (and we're not talking about milk). Basically, the guy gets extra, extra tipsy. He ends up passing out on sidewalks, subways and even right next to the Christmas tree. Who know Saint Nick was such a party animal?
