Sure, this bleeding-heart liberal vegetarian millennial will say it: Between his jokes about raping teen gun-violence victims and his decades of promoting sexual harassment, Howard Stern isn’t fit to lick our Tevas.

Saturday Night Live turned 44 on Saturday, and managed to stay awake past midnight, bless its heart.
