29 Adorable Anderson Cooper GIFs That Will Melt The Ice Around Your Cold, Cold Heart

Although the internet loves Ryan Gosling and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, I firmly believe that Anderson Cooper is the perfect man. What more could you possibly want? He’s an accomplished journalist, funny, intelligent, a superb giggler and a fucking Vanderbilt. Also, he looks like this. That picture is photoshopped, but it’s real to me.
