Are you one of those awful people who is disappointed with the FREE GIFT you received from someone who loves you this holiday season?

Well, Pizza Hut is rewarding you for being honest about how awful you are: they started a promotion that let you tweet a pic of your crappy gift in exchanged for a $10 pizza gift card! LOLz!

It's called the Pizza Hut Gift Exchange, but it was only for

McDonald's sales had dropped 2.2% in October, so they stayed open on Thanksgiving.

And wouldn't you know it, their sales climbed 2.5% in November!

So of course they'd like to try it again, to make even more money this holiday season.

That's right, they want locations to stay open on Christmas day!!

Say whaaaat??

Ummmmmmmmmmmm DELISH!

We can't even believe this is a real drink! It sounds TOO good!

Plus, we don't even have to go somewhere to get it — we have the TY KU recipe right here (above), and we can do it on our own! But, we'd rather if you'd invite us to your holiday party and make it for us instead!

That'd be fun, right??

We'll wear a sweater! LOLz!

Drink responsibly this holiday season! Drinking and driving is dumb!

Add another name to the list of celebrities giving back this holiday season!

The latest is Kid Rock, and he's teaming up with a church in Detroit to give away hundreds of gift baskets and retail gift certificates to needy families!!

Such a sweet thing to do. We're talking 300 gift baskets and 100 gift certificates to grocery stores and stores like Meijer.

Kid Rock has always been known for his giving though, and was even honored by the NAACP for philanthropic contributions this year!

We hope other people can take a page out of his book, seriously!

Fab news!

Here's a quick update on George Michael and his health status: he's just been released from the hospital, and will be home for the holidays!

He was in the hospital being treated for pnuemonia, and was hospitalized late last month — so it's been a while, and it's so nice to hear that he's doing well enough to go home!

Too many people are without their families and stuck in hospitals this holiday season, it's nice to see a few get to avoid that!

Keep resting, George!
