On Christmas day, comedian/possible Oscar nominee Sarah Silverman tweeted “Merry Christmas! Jesus was gender fluid!” And then the internet exploded. Christians went BANANAS. They bombarded her twitter with anti-Semitic insults, disparaging comments about her looks, and death threats. Over a silly joke. It didn’t even really mean anything, of course. It was just Sarah being Sarah. Of course Jesus wasn’t gender fluid. I mean: He was pretty, if you go by the blond-haired, blue-eyed, hippy-dippy Disney prince we saw in Sunday School, but except for the long hair and fluttery eyelashes, he was a man. ALL man. Sarah was just poking the bear for something to do. It’s what she does.

Slate had an interesting take on why the tweet was so upsetting to so many people:

“Why Sarah Silverman is scary: It’s the cultural power of celebrities that drives conservatives insane”

No one actually thinks that Silverman has some deeply held opinions about Jesus and gender. The whole point of this tweet is to put something conservatives like to act pious about — Jesus Christ — next to something that makes them uncomfortable — gender fluidity — and laugh at them while they overreact like a bunch of oversensitive babies. If conservatives don’t like the joke, they could have deprived her of the punch line by refusing to react, but instead, they gave her ample amounts of material to laugh at.

Silverman’s little experiment worked so well because it played not off ideas about religion and gender, but off understanding that the modern conservative movement is primarily, almost exclusively, about culture war. The narrative that undergirds and justifies the conservative movement is a belief that American culture used to be a wholesome one, a world where white Christian men were properly held in esteem above all others and people supposedly had good (read: conservative) values. And that now it’s all under assault by multiculturalism, queer-positivity, feminism and sex positivity.

So now SARAH is the one under assault, if you go by the reaction to her tweet. Check out some of the more entertaining responses below.

Via HuffPo:

Last year, Silverman appeared in a video with a faux Jesus to talk about abortion rights, and spoke about the symbol of Jesus and Christianity in a Rolling Stone interview.
“[T]o me, I love the symbol of Jesus,” she said. “It’s so odd to me that so many people on the far right use his name to justify terrible things that I can’t imagine he’d approve of.”
“And I’m not against Christianity,” she added. “I date Catholic men! That’s always what they come back with, ‘Sarah Silverman mocks Christianity!’ I’m not! As a matter of fact, I have no religion and many people in my life that I love and respect and even look up to have religion. I’m not out to prove them wrong.”

Oh dear. Mark Salling aka Puck from Glee has been arrested by the LAPD for child pornography.

TMZ reports:

We’re told the LAPD’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force obtained a warrant and served it Tuesday morning, as first reported by the TV show “Crime Watch Daily.”

We’re told cops searched Salling’s computer at his Sunland home and found hundreds of images. At the time of this post, Salling is being taken to the police station for booking.

Law enforcement sources say the images they captured from Salling’s computer were children … significantly younger than 15 and 16 year olds.

Our sources say an ex-girlfriend of Salling’s tipped off cops and they investigated before the raid to make sure it wasn’t a revenge allegation.
Salling has had his share of legal problems. In 2013 he was sued by a woman who claimed he committed sexual battery on her by forcing sex without a condom. Salling denied the charge and the case settled.

Yuck, Puck. What a horrible way to start your morning. More news as the story develops.

UPDATE:

TMZ reports: — Law enforcement sources now tell us they’ve already seen more than a thousand images of “child sexual exploitation” on Salling’s computer. Cops also seized other electronic devices, including tablets and cellphones. We’re also told he lives alone, which will make it hard to argue someone else put the images in the computer.
Our sources say when cops arrived to search the home, Salling was “shocked.”

We’re also told Salling has already lawyered up.

Ian “Lemmy” Kilmister, founding member and singer in the British heavy metal band Motörhead, has died at the age of 70 shortly after learning he had been diagnosed with cancer. And by shortly, I mean SHORTLY. Kilmister learned he had an aggressive form of cancer on December 26th. On December 28th, he passed away. That’s the way to go, if you ask me. Bad news, and you’re OUT. No sitting around feeling sorry for yourself, no long goodbyes, no Kübler-Rossian 5 stages of Death. Just GONE. Good for him. It’s very rock ‘n roll.

Says the band on their Facebook page:

There is no easy way to say this…our mighty, noble friend Lemmy passed away today after a short battle with an extremely aggressive cancer. He had learnt of the disease on December 26th, and was at home, sitting in front of his favorite video game from The Rainbow which had recently made its way down the street, with his family.
We cannot begin to express our shock and sadness, there aren’t words.
We will say more in the coming days, but for now, please…play Motörhead loud, play Hawkwind loud, play Lemmy’s music LOUD.
Have a drink or few.
Share stories.
Celebrate the LIFE this lovely, wonderful man celebrated so vibrantly himself.
HE WOULD WANT EXACTLY THAT.
Ian ‘Lemmy’ Kilmister
1945 -2015
Born to lose, lived to win.
Please feel free to post your condolences, well wishes and memories on our official tribute page.

Friends, fans, and rock contemporaries have been tweeting their support.

Bernie Marsden of Whitesnake tweeted: “Spent many a evening chatting with him, especially about Hendrix! A great man. RIP x.”

James Kottak of the Scorpions said Lemmy was “a true friend … the real deal … RIP you will rock & roll forever”.

Geezer Butler, founding bassist of Black Sabbath, said: “Very sad to hear of Lemmy’s passing. We’ve lost a true, true legend. RIP.”

British music journalist Mark Beech tweeted that Lemmy had told him: “I will be killed by death. I might be killed by too much booze, women or music, but it’s not a bad way to die.”

From the Guardian‘s obituary:

Lemmy was born in Burslem, Staffordshire, on Christmas Eve in 1945. His musical career began in the early 1960s and he was, for a time, a roadie for Jimi Hendrix. He played in several rock bands, including the Rockin’ Vickers, Sam Gopal and Hawkwind, before founding Motörhead (originally named Bastard).

He wrote in his autobiography, White Line Fever, that he had been fired from Hawkwind for “doing the wrong drugs”.

Motörhead’s loud, fast style was a pioneering force in heavy metal. Lemmy’s vocal growl and aggressive bass playing has been emulated by countless other bands, but the singer joked that he largely learned on the job, telling Spin in 2012 that “the volume’s loud so nobody really notices that much”.

The band’s highest-rating record was the live album No Sleep ’Til Hammersmith, which peaked at number one on the UK album charts – a testament to the band’s crushing onstage performances.

Other highlights from Motörhead’s extensive discography include their second and third albums, Overkill and Bomber, both recorded in 1979, and several high-rating singles in the early 1980s. The Ace of Spades album reached number four in the UK charts, and the single number 15.

The band’s early years are credited with laying the ground for thrash and speed metal, but Lemmy consistently refused to categorise their music as either punk or metal, often playing to audiences of both genres.

Despite the band’s success, Lemmy said in interviews over the years that he had made more money from writing Osbourne’s 1991 hit Mama I’m Coming Home than from the entire Motörhead catalogue.

He told the Guardian earlier this year: “I didn’t really want to be in the lifestyle without the music. And I didn’t want to be in the music without the lifestyle.”

Dangerous Minds takes us back to the days of weirdly perky first-generation Goths in a series of three vintage videos. Who knew Goths had that much energy? In the first video, a group of VERY ’80s club boyz at the Xclusiv nightclub in Batley, West Yorkshire are dancing first to The Cult’s “Spiritwalker.” Then the floor literally clears out as the Cramps’ “Human Fly” plays for a few seconds before the camera shuts off, and then everyone returns to the floor to go buckwild over Killing Joke’s “Eighties.”

The second video – possibly from 1983 – features more girls (looking slightly more Hazel O’Conner than Siouxsie Sioux at this point) and dancing to the extended single mix of The Cure’s “Let’s Go To Bed” – which was released in 1982.

The last video takes us back to the Xclusive nightclub in Northern England for a full TWO HOURS of fun.

Last Friday was Jared Leto’s 44th birthday. To celebrate, People magazine made a quickie montage of Jared Leto‘s face as it absolutely refuses to age from 1994 to 2015. It’s beyond spooky. I mean: He looked like a pretty puppy then, he looks like a pretty puppy now. What’s up with that? Does he bathe in the blood of virgins? Is he hiding a rapidly decaying portrait in his attic? Is he even real? His style changes. Whooooeeee, does it ever. From grunge god to bleached blond cyborg to corn-rowed boybander to hipster Jesus, every year brings a new surprise. 2006 and 2008 are particularly alarming. (Although I suspect these extreme phases are an act to convince us that he is INDEED moving through time, he IS changing, he IS aging… but we know better….). Watch below.

Take THAT, painting elephants and sign-language speaking apes! A super-talented Border Collie/Blue Heeler mix named Jumpy has the mind-blowing ability to paint actual words and symbols on a canvas (under the guided tutelage of his human Omar von Muller). In the first video, Jumpy proudly demonstrates how he can legibly write his own name. WHO’S A GOOD DOGGIE!? WHO IS? YOU ARE! YES, YOU ARE!

In the second video, he sweetly paints the words “I love you” in emoji shorthand. AWWWWW. GOOD BOY, JUMPY! I LOVE YOU, TOO!

And yes, I see the trainer guiding the motions for the pup, but hell, it’s still quite an impressive feat, and Jumpy CERTAINLY has better handwriting than I do.

I for one bow to our new canine overlords etc etc… (via Laughing Squid)

The stunning black-and-white music video for “Death of a Bachelor” — the title track to Panic! at the Disco ‘s upcoming album – opens with lead singer Brendon Urie sitting at a table in an Art Deco jazz club, playing with his lighter and drinking whiskey. The camera follows him as he dreamily croons like Sinatra to an empty ballroom. Sigh. He’s good. Damn good.

Says Billboard:

The latest P!ATD song oozes Ol’ Blue Eyes vibes, through the distinct lens of Urie’s voice and increasing sonic experimentation.

While the subdued but swingin’ horns on the track bring to mind frequent Sinatra arranger Nelson Riddle, Urie adds a stuttering beat to keep the song from being a purely throwback affair. Similarly, clipped vocal loops serve as backup voices, instead of one continuous track.

But when Urie’s voice hits those big notes with Sinatra-styled gusto, there’s no denying he’s drawing inspiration from the late legend — and, for someone who came up in the pop-punk scene, doing a surprisingly adept job at it.

Says Urie of his big-band experimentation:

“Death Of A Bachelor — it’s cool ’cause in the past I was writing most of everything, but this time it was actually all me and I got to record every instrument on this album, except for the horns, which was a huge deal for me,” Urie told Billboard. “I did drums, background vocals and the background vocals I was playing different characters, I was doing operatic Queen stuff for songs like ‘Victorious’ and ‘Emperor’s New Clothes.’ That was just a lot of fun. And again, Sinatra creeps back in there, so there are a couple of songs I wrote trying to do like a Nelson Riddle arrangement.”

It is that special time of year WOWers…

…where party minions are yelping the (cheapest) hippest spots to (black out) get toasty before the ball drops, raiding the sale’s racks at H & M and sending selfies to your girlfriends with the text “Too much Sequins?,” and for most of us: trying to find a New Year’s Eve (make-out partner) kiss.

I myself am hoping my entrance into 2016 – is less like my 2015 welcome – which went a little something like this:

And ends up a little more like this:

Here are the top 5 New Year’s Eve kisses that really reflect where you’re at in 2015, and where you want to go in 2016:

5) THE FRIEND KISS

The confetti showers and your friend’s mouth suddenly seems delicious. Only partake in this smoocharoo if your friend a) consents, and b) doesn’t have feelings for you. This just means you’re a cool ‘n funky girl who’s living mindful, present, and carpe-ing the muthafuckin’ diem. BFF spells french kiss.

4) THE PITY KISS

We have all been here. Just like, don’t do it, okay?

“Being nice” doesn’t mean “giving in.” Besides, do you really want to be the one in your squad that has to tell this make-out sesh on Sunday?!

3) THE MYSTERY KISS

After a bajillion shots of Jameson, anyone’s mug will look appetizing. Kissing a stranger might be just the ticket you need to send off 2015, and be a rule breaker in 2016.

2) THE EPIC KISS

Call me dramatic, but I’ve ALWAYS wanted to have the Marisa and Ryan kiss…

The ten second countdown, the slow motion run and glances, the constipated bro-face on my suitor’s well, face, and silver confetti to fall as we circle kiss around a camera to Finley Quayle…like…can I get an amen?!

This kiss will surpass the notion of limits…

…because you will have defied social gravity by making this tongue twirl happen. Your 2016 trajectory will be truly next-level for you if you can break this sort of ground.

1) THE ROM-COM KISS

Call me old-fashioned but I’ve always wanted to make out with (Colin Firth) a long-time crush. You’ve always been two flirt ships passing in the office, but when the snow falls and the champagne bottles pop, they tell you how much you mean to them, and then you passionately peck.

Your 2016 prediction could lead to a long-term relationship with either a) said crush, b) yourself, or c) your profession if you get the Rom-Com kiss. Atleast will aid in the belief that magick is all around us, and good things happen to good girls.

Happy Kissing, hunties!!!

These are HANDS DOWN, BAR NONE, the INDISPUTABLE best songs to do your makeup to. Yes! Each and every one gives you the confidence to go A LITTLE HIGHER with the eyeliner, A LITTLE DARKER with blush, and LITTLE BIGGER with the lip liner. When I’m exhausted and cranky and couldn’t care less about the evening ahead, I put these songs on and am INSTANTLY transformed. Listen to them below. They are guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a bounce to your step.

#5. Saint Motel “My Type” – You probably remember this song as a snippet from an Express commercial this summer, but, oh, it’s so much more. Just listen: The beat is kicky, the horns are a delight, and the cow bells, well, don’t start me on the cow bells. Also: I live for the line “I’m a man who got veeeeeeeery specific tastes…” THAT’S ME! I’M a man who has very specific tastes! I get it! Anyway, you need to check out the video, which you’ve probably never seen before. It’s VERY Palm Springs, very retro-60s, with big haired women wearing Pucci-esque caftans – TO. DIE. FOR. Much to inspire you.

#4. Every time you start to forget about Adam Lambert, he roars back into your life to remind you why he’s just the best gay icon-in-the-making that we’ve got. Both “Ghost Town”  – and his latest “Another Lonely Night” – are effortless throwback to those throbbing gay dance anthems of yore. “Ghost Town” especially gets my juices flowing.

#3. Cold War Kids “First” – this doubles as my favorite driving song of the year. It’s very…. kinetic. Very…. explosive. And for some reason the lyrics kind of hurt my heart.

“Flying like a cannonball
Falling to the earth
Heavy as feather when you hit the dirt
How am i the lucky one?
I did not deserve, to wait around forever
when you were there first.”

Not sure what it means, but damn if it doesn’t get me every time.

#2. DNCE “Cake by the Ocean” – Who knew Joe Jonas would have a comeback this year, as well as his brother? His dance band DNCE really came out of left field with this song. I just love it. It feels fresh, doesn’t it? Too bad they gave it to Sprint for their commercials before it had the chance to blow up. I guess hedging your bet and getting that commercial money is wise, but it kills the momentum of the song, doesn’t it? Now it’s “that Sprint song.” Still good. Still gets me going, but I feel it was a wasted opportunity for them to really get some dance floor cred.

and my #1 getting-ready song of 2015 is Nick Jonas “Levels” – Huh? you are saying to yourself.  You might not even remember it. It came and went rather quickly and frankly never got the air play it deserved. But it’s good. Reeeeal good. I’m just going to say it: Better than “Jealous.” And DEFINITELY better than “Chains” (which is only good because of his muscles in the video, let’s be real). I’m going to take it a step farther: “Levels,” I dare say, is THE BEST SONG OF THE YEAR.  KaPOW. Take that “Hello”!

The East London drag documentary Dressed as a Girl – produced by Colin Rothbart, Chris Amos, Christopher Hird and World of Wonder – was listed by Huffington Post blogger Adam Groffman as one of the Top 5 Gay Movies of 2015! Condragulations!

Writes Adam:

This UK film follows the lives of some of East London’s most notorious drag stars and the East London drag community in general. The film follows their lives for almost six years, from festivals (Glastonbury) to the dark and dank clubs in East London. For anyone with a slightly passing interest in drag politics, this film offers a bit of insight into the world of drag, and it does so in an entertaining and engaging way. The star and ringleader of the film is Jonny Woo, still active in the East London drag community with the popular bar and indie club, The Glory (highly recommended for any gay night out in London!).

Read more about the film on the official Dressed as a Girl website, or watch the trailer below.

The other movies?

Seashore (2015, Brazil)

One of the sweetest gay films, this coming-of-age story takes place by the seashore in Brazil, between two teenage boys. It’s a kind and compelling story of friends, of their short journey of self-discovery.

Nasty Baby (2015, USA)

The movie, taking place in Brooklyn, tells the story of a gay couple and their best friend (played by the wonderful Kristen Wiig) — who has an unconventional threesome plan to have a baby together. There’s something really special about this story…. Which makes the surprises of the movie that much more traumatic. There’s no wonder why Nasty Baby won the 2015 Teddy Award at the Berlinale Film Festival.

Oriented (2015, Israel)

This gay film (it’s a documentary) tells the story of three gay Palestinians living in Tel Aviv. Created by Jake Witzenfeld, the film follows the individuals for several months and covers topics such as Israeli-Palestinian politics, youth, relationships, Zionism, family and sexuality. It’s an engaging and curious story that leaves you wondering “what’s next?”

Drown (2015, Australia)

This Australian gay film is a powerful story about masculinity, following the fictional lives of surfers in Sydney. Jealousy, homophobic fear and unrequited lust trickle throughout the movie, until a particularly frightening final scene. The film, beautifully shot, jumps between past and present, happy moments and sad ones, peaceful times and episodes of violence — making the tense but singular conflict really shine through the storytelling.

The good folks at Pornhub have released their traffic and search data for last week’s holiday, and it reveals some interesting stats about the festive faps, jolly jerks, and tinsel-fueled tugs we engaged in. And let me put this as delicately as I can: You’re all a bunch of filthy fucking pervs. “Santa Blowjob”? “Christmas cream pie”? “Santa and elf”? “Santa anal”? What would you mother think if she knew what you were up to?

First up is this graph of the popular (read: alarming) searches for Christmas Day 2015

Compare that list to last years, and  it seems like some weirder searches are making headway.

Interestingly, most of your fapping was done via your phone – probably because you’re at your parents’ house, hiding in the bathroom, or your family is all up in your apartment and your desktop computer is just not accessible.

Also interesting is this graph of porn use around the world on Christmas Day, which is down everywhere except Japan, Russia, and India. But before you accuse THEM of being pervs, you should know that Christmas is celebrated on January 7th in Russia, and not widely celebrated in India and Japan. So, don’t worry, you’re still a bunch fap-happy sex fiends.

With 2015 coming to a RAPID end, here at the WOW Report all of us contributors have been listing our 10 favorite things of the year. Without further delay, here are mine!

10. YEEZY SEASON 1 French Terry Sweatshirt

Yes, that’s right. I was a huge fan of both Kanye West‘s Yeezy season 1 and 2, and this sweatshirt (I mean, adidas Originals by Kanye West YEEZY SEASON 1 Oxbred dusty mauve cotton French terry sweatshirt with detailed cuffs with raw edges, as it’s described) is my favorite piece the year. Yes, it’s $455, but there’s something specific about the overall I-don’t-give-a-shit-but-I-care-too-much vibe combined with the faded rosy color and three-quarter sleeve that speaks directly to my soul.

9. Jack Black Cool Moisture Body Lotion

If you’re a lotion kind of guy like me, listen up. This year I discovered the BEST LOTION EVER. Jack Black’s Cool Moisture Body Lotion has a minty feel that cools the skin down (which comes in handy on summer days here in Los Angeles) and smells super fresh, and also makes my skin look and feel way more moisturized than it really is.

8. Rose McGowan‘s “RM486” music video

Rose McGowan released her masterpiece of a music video in September this year, and I pretty much still can’t get enough of it. The song is gorgeous and the visuals are super intriguing. Watch it, you’ll understand.

7. Kick Sagat underwear

Francois Sagat‘s Kick Sagat line makes some really cool t-shirts and tanks, but I got my hands on a few pairs of the briefs this year and it kind of completely changed my outlook on fashiony underwear. It fits perfectly on me and the cut looks super cute with that thick waistband. I’m all about it.

6. Purpose

We all know that Justin Bieber‘s comeback album Purpose was more of a PR strategy to reposition his image than anything else. But nonetheless, it delivered some of the most catchy and pleasurable listening jams I’ve heard in a while, and Bieber’s smooth, boyish vocals have never sounded better—especially when combined with light, tropical beats and heavy bass.

5. Drake’s beard

This year, Drake stepped up his beard game when he grew an impressively even, dark, luxurious beard that propelled him even further into Daddy AF territory. Yes, Champagne Papi’s beard has the power to impregnate the world, and thus my soul. It also has the ability to improve his shirtless selfies, if that’s even possible:

4. RuPaul’s Drag Race season 7

The entire season 7 of RuPaul’s Drag Race pretty much gave me all the life I ever needed this year. Especially when this moment happened on the “Countdown To The Crown” episode:

3. Zac Efron‘s selfie with his bro

The world stopped for me when Zacky posted this photo with the caption “#brothers,” as it depicts him adorably riding piggyback style on his gorgeous younger bro Dylan Efron‘s back. Like, what more could one want?! Honestly though.

#brothers

2. Zac Efron almost naked

My world stopped again when a foreign version of the upcoming cinematic masterpiece Dirty Grandpa trailer hit the Internet and these GIFs were born. Some say his bottom half is his body-double. I say… who cares?

1. The Hot Cop

NYPD officer Miguel Pimentel became a social-media sensation this year, proving that there might in fact be someone capable of trapping more thirst than Zac Efron. (Like, maybe? Idk) But honestly tho, he is by far the hottest cop in the world… as evidenced by his completely incredible underwear selfies which are just what the world needs more of.

Besides my unhealthy obsession with Finn and Poe  (as evidenced in my Episode VII Review):

I am LIVING for Adam Driver as Kylo Ren in the non-stop record breaking Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

His portrayal of Ben gone Darth-Vader’s-Understudy spawned a digital tidal wave of sorts. The most popular/why I’m grateful the internet exists is “Emo Kylo Ren’s” twitter page (@KyloR3n):

Kylo Ren is like a cross between Severus Snape:

Buffalo Bill:

Marissa Cooper:

Amy Poehler as Dakota Fanning:

Mr. Burns:

Norman Bates (a bit redundant, I know):

Kirsten Dunst in Melancholia:

This Marilyn Manson quote:

And this picture of Lindsay Lohan combined:

Which pretty much equals:

When considering a grown ass man having a lightsaber tantrum in front of a computer screen…

Kylo Ren probably needs a few more hugs…

…and a little less deep space plotting against the force.

FoxMulder imagined a musical playlist worthy of a Jedi-son-gone-dark-side. I like to imagine him and Hux sitting in a dark room – maybe sharing a Dorito-Loco taco or possibly twirling each other’s hair to these (melancholy) melodic tunes. Check it out below:

1) HEARTILATION BY ANDREW JACKSON JIHAD

2) EVIL EYE BY FRANZ FERDINAND

3) I WANT IT ALL BY ARTIC MONKEYS

4) TIGHTEN UP BY THE BLACK KEYS

5) NO HOPE BY THE VACCINES

6) KILLER BY THE HOOSIERS

7) I NEED SOME SLEEP BY EELS

8) I CAN’T WIN BY THE STROKES

9) LONELY HUNTER BY FOALS

10) FEELIN’ GOOD BY GROWLERS

11) TCHAIKOVSKY AND SOLITUDE BY MINIATURE TIGERS

Not included on the mix, but on the soundtrack to my fanfic heart:

Honorable mention (because duh):

When he pulls off his mask (like c’mon!):

And also (wishful thinking):

What songs would you want on a Kylo Ren mix?! This post approved by the original concept art for Kylo Ren:

Are you having a party tonight? Or just staying in with some best buds? We ALL know about Spotify but are you up to date on their New Years Eve party playlists? I’ve been listening to Mark Ronson‘s all morning. But there are 20 different lists. These are some of the most in demand DJs (I threw Selena Gomez for the hell of it…) But I can tell you these guys are ALL getting the big bucks tonight (Some a million dollars! I kid you not!) So, for free, why not give it a whirl? Here’s to a Happy 2016, no matter who or what you ring it in with!

2016 is RIGHT around the corner. As we say “goodbye, so long, adios, arrive darchi” to 2015 – and figure out our NYE Kiss strategy – it’s a good time to “hasta la vista” some bad office habits and say “hello“ to some new ones. Here’s my five (simple) New Year’s Resolutions you can take to work with you:

1) BE ON TIME

This is the ONE and only time I’m not going to endorse Kim Zolciak’s club banger, “Don’t Be Tardy For The Party”:

There’s a million and one reasons why the plummer is at your house at 9am (really, gross?!), but coming into work late in the new year makes it seem like you can’t manage, well, your time.

2) DON’T BE HUNGOVER

Sure, it’s winter and (every bottle of) red wine looks appetizing while you’re netflix-and-chilling for one, but you’re in your mid to late twenties now: save the lemon drop shots for Fridays and Saturdays.

Working for the weekend will also make that dirty martini SO much more rewarding.

3) PACK A LUNCH

I know it’s fun to constantly:

But eating out 5 days a week – on top of your (necessary) twice-a-day Starbucks runs – will LITERALLY burn a hole in your wallet. You can stock up on tons of yummy (and healthy) produce or ready-made meals at your local Trader Joe’s to keep your belly (and your bank) happy til the weekend when you can splurge on your neighborhood’s bottomless mimosa special at brunch.

4) DRESS THE PART

You don’t have to have an excuse for dressing up for anyone but yourself. Styling a nice look will make you feel good, give you more confidence, and prepare you for a full day of compliments from your co-workers on said cute outfit.

5) DO SOMETHING NICE

I know the Monday through Friday grind can seem…well:

But routine doesn’t have to feel mundane. Since you got your professional and careers goals on lock, try reaching out and help out a co-worker with something they are struggling with.

It’s good karma, you’ve built a new friendship, and I guarantee with that attitude, doors will open for you in the long run.

Try one of these (or all five) out come Monday morning!
