Would you want one of these in your stocking?

Family Guy has been one of animation's longest running staples, and even though Peter, Lois, Chris, Meg, Stewie and Brian have had their ups and downs, they can still deliver some hilarious moments. Last night, Family Guy aired their latest Christmas Special, which kicked off with the Griffins engaging in some holiday decorations. While Brian proceeded to banter about his latest charitable antics, Meg decided to bust out the "Kanye Canes," which led to the episode's most memorable highlight. 

The Family Guy writers were no doubt on some other shit when they conceived this one. Kanye West imagined as an anthropomorphic candy cane seems like a crazy idea in theory, but for some reason, it delivers in practice. Before Meg drops the "Kanye Canes" into the stockings, they each let out a tried-and-true Kanye-ism like "You know, it's just like, you know, music, and fashion, all that! You know I can't be stopped," or "Mark Zuckerberg promised he'd give me fifty million dollars fam, but then, he welshed and I'm penniless!!" To make things even better, the Kanye Canes are all voiced by Jay Pharoah, who previously portrayed the Yeezus icon on Saturday Night Live. 

Check out the clip below, and if it makes you wish for another Kanye album, you're not alone. Luckily, all signs point to 2018 being a massive year for Mr. West, who will be heavily involved in his upcoming album, Pusha T's King Push, Desiigner's project, and G.O.O.D Music's Cruel Winter. While you stay tuned for the Kanye comeback season, enjoy some Kanye Canes in the interim.
