Steve Harvey knows how to laugh at himself.

After his monumental gaffe during the Miss Universe pageant in which he accidentally announced the wrong winner, Harvey found himself the butt of many jokes. But he seems to be taking the jokes in stride, and on Christmas Day, he even came out with one of his own.

“Merry Easter, y’all!” he posted online on Christmas Day, a subtle jibe at himself for mixing up the correct thing to say.

During the Miss Universe pageant, Harvey had accidentally proclaimed Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez the winner when in fact the crown belonged to Miss Philippines Pia Wurtzbach. Harvey apologized afterward, but the Internet isn’t about to let this go any time soon.
