Okay, so we knew Alexander Skarsgard was beautiful and long-legged-y and perfectly Swedish in every way and also, let's see ... perfectly perfect in every way, but we didn't really know how FUNNY he was until he sat down with Conan O'Brien the other night for what turned out to be a very, very revealing chit-chat. And he's so funny! Oh, ASKars, is there no end to your charms?! He even made Conan laugh, which, if you know anything about Conan O'Brien, ain't no easy task.

But his helluva good sense of humor wasn't the only thing ASkars revealed during his appearance (we said it was very, VERY revealing, remember?). Here are 6 more S-E-X-Y secrets we were thrilled to learn:

I've always felt like David Letterman is a dude I could totally hang with, you know? The word "simpatico" comes to mind. Anyway, after watching his interview with Lindsay Lohan last night, I'm convinced Dave and I could be buds -- because while he poked plenty of fun at her, um, colorful track record and upcoming stint in rehab ("You know I routinely make jokes about you and your activities, true and otherwise, right? You are aware of that?"), he made one thing perfectly clear: David Letterman is rooting for Lindsay Lohan. He believes in her. And the truth is, I do too. Especially after the way she handled herself on the Late Show.

Dragon!For those of you who were brilliant and nerdy enough to stay in on Friday night and check out Jimmy Kimmel Live to witness for yourself the official 60-second trailer for season 3 of Game of Thrones, Tyrion Lannister and I raise our wine glasses to you. Jimmy Kimmel is a huge fan of the series (who isn't?), and he too is waiting with bated breath for March 31, when the third season premieres. It's gonna be so good.

Obviously the amazing plot twists that fill up A Storm of Swords, the book the third season is based upon, aren't revealed in the trailer, but getting glimpses of the castles, the Wall, the familiar faces, Joffrey on the throne (he's still as annoying as he was in the first two seasons), and yes, a dragon(!) miiiiight just be enough to tide fans over for the next few weeks. 

No spoilers for season 3 ahead so you can marvel in the newly released trailer that debuted on Jimmy in all its glory.

You know, I've been writing online for over a decade, and in that time I've made plenty of embarrassing confessions. Plenty. But what I'm about to tell you right now just may be the blue-ribbon winner in terms of complete and total personal humiliation: I think I just got turned on by a video of Justin Bieber french-kissing a severed mannequin head.

I'm not proud of this. Not even a little bit. In fact, it's such a dirty feeling, it's like I just got all hot and bothered by watching barely legal amputee porn. Which maybe I sort of did? OH GOD. Anyway, I'm hideously ashamed of myself, and the only thing that will make me feel remotely better is if I share the clip with you and confess my awful, awful sins.

Dear Stir readers: my name is Linda, I'm 38 years old and the mother of two children, and ... and I ... I think this video of an 18-year-old boy making out with a doll head is totally sexy. *hangs head*

"A billion dollars will be spent on potato chips for Super Bowl Sunday, and that's just at Governor Christie's house." That's just one of the many, many jokes David Letterman has made at New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's expense, so you'd think that Christie's appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman last night would have been a bit awkward. Or maybe a LOT awkward.

Instead, the outspoken governor showed that he's a remarkably good sport about being the target of Letterman's seemingly endless fat jokes. According to Christie, he doesn't really mind the barbs -- under one condition: they have to be funny. If the joke is funny, he laughs like anyone else.

Not only does Christie's utter lack of offense deflate Letterman's schoolyard insults, it kind of brings a fresh, SANE perspective to politically incorrect humor.

I've never understood why it is that I love most foul-mouthed, obnoxious comediennes, but am usually completely turned off by Chelsea Handler. Maybe it's that she's never really seemed all that hilarious to me. I feel like most of her fame has come from saying completely outrageous things about untouchable people, but none of it is usually funny. At any rate, I wasn't expecting much from this buzzed-about clip of her talking to Piers Morgan ... until I watched it.

If there's one television personality who's definitively more annoying than Chelsea Handler, it's got to be Piers Morgan, right? So you can imagine what happens when the two of them meet in front of the cameras: oil and water. Nitro and glycerin. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together -- mass hysteria!

Yeah, Piers Morgan's appearance on Chelsea Handler's talk show Wednesday night was what you might call awkward. And I'm reluctant to say it, but Chelsea OWNED his smarmy ass.

Hey girl, let's talk about Ryan Gosling, because we haven't ... in a few hours. (Remember Knife Guys?! Good times.) Anyway, Gosling's gut-busting funny skit with Will Ferrell wasn't the only highlight of his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live the other night ... he also told what I'm almost positive is the best story I've ever heard in my life. Told in the most entertaining possible way, of course.

And it taught us a lot of things about the real man behind the movie star, such as: 1. Ryan Gosling might have had a slightly odd childhood, and 2. Ryan Gosling has always dreamed of being either Santa Claus or a Girl Scout.

I think we can all agree that Ryan Gosling, in addition to being the sexiest hunk of sexy sex to hit the screen in quite some time, is quite the talented actor. (Blue Valentine, hello?!) But even the super hot star had trouble keeping a straight face when he paired up with funnyman Will Ferrell for a skit on last night's Jimmy Kimmel Live.

See, Jimmy Kimmel recently switched time slots on ABC (you can now tune in at 11:35 p.m., EST). And rather than just repeat that relatively boring factoid over and over again, Kimmel & Co. came up with a hilarious way to remind viewers at home: The Knife Guys, a QVC "show" hosted by Ferrell and Gosling in the same studio as Jimmy Kimmel Live.
