Well folks, the end of the year is nearly upon us. It’s time to reflect on our accomplishments, our triumphs, our finest moments of 2017.

But that would be boring.

Instead, today I present to you some of my favorite outtakes from the past year. I’ve been holding on to some of these for months, and I hope you’ll enjoy a good laugh!

That’s a wrap! Looking forward to more silliness in 2018!
