Video: John Oliver hilariously explains why he hates New Year’s Eve

The English comic nails it yet again...

Eric Lalor

We are massive fans of John Oliver here in JOE and we love his reasons for hating NYE.

We’ll be honest, this particular JOE reckons that New Year’s Eve is hugely over-rated, but we’re glad to see that there are many who feel the same way. Namely our favourite English comedian currently working on prime time television in America, the fantastic John Oliver.

Not only does he give us his reasons for hating New Year’s Eve, but more importantly he has given us some fool-proof excuses to get out of doing anything remotely New Year’s Eve-y.

Thanks John!

Good man John, we’ll be personally using the ‘cleanse’ excuse. Repeatedly.
