7 Reasons Why John Oliver Is An International Treasure

Giving John Oliver the recognition he deserves

1. This is how he filled in for Jon Stewart on the Daily show

I'm pretty sure this is what got him his gig at HBO (and we're all very grateful!)

2. He and his team are doing God's work by setting up an application to make Donald Trump look like Donald Drumpf on your computer

To get this extension go to donaldjdrumph.com (you can thank me later)

3. He wasn't afraid of calling out Hollywood on their whitewashing during the oscar season

By comparing the whiteness of the oscars to a yeti in a snowstorm fighting Tilda Swinton (not a complete overreaction, I might add)

4. He created a church. Seriously. It's called Our Lady of Perpetual Exemption and it's everything.

Praise be, praise be.

5. When a caller and the reporters at cnn were confused about why isis showed up at a gay pride parade, John Oliver had the answer

6. He has the talent of turning unsexy topics into comedic gold

Like civil forfeiture, which he said "sounds like a Gwenyth Paltrow euphemism for divorce, but incredibly it's actually much worse than that"

7. His comedic spin on things can make topics much more relatable, such as the Edward Snowden fiasco

In an interiview with Edward Snowden, John Oliveer humanised the situation by explaining that the NSA has the capability of viewing anyones dick pics.

If you're not bothered to watch the full 30+ minute video skip to about 14 minutes in, no one will judge you (except me because John Oliver is hilarious)

So basically, J-Ol (his nickname that I just invented) should be loved by everyone and deserves nothing less
