We finally have some answers about why Buddy the Elf was spotted at an L.A. Kings game a few weeks ago. During the latest episode of the Kelce Brothers’ New Heights podcast, Will Ferrell explained that he was sitting along the boards in his Elf costume, cigarette-in-hand just… because. He said that he “gets these weird ideas every now and then,” and chain-smoking Buddy happened to be one of them.  

On the other coast, SNL is ready to start the new year with a pair of new hosts. The show announced that Dave Chappelle will host the show’s first episode back after the holiday break with what will be the controversial comedian’s fourth time hosting. The following week, Timothée Chalamet will embark on his third hosting stint, but more interestingly, he’ll be pulling double-duty as the show’s musical guest, too. Chalamet will make his live singing debut on the show by bringing his portrayal of Bob Dylan to 30 Rock after playing the singer in A Complete Unknown. 

Meanwhile, the laughs from the timeline are as loud as ever. Today’s funniest tweets include those about a poetic way to get out of a speeding ticket, the downside of hydration and a real Mandela effect.
