Have mercy on us, Uncle Jesse.

If you're having a case of the Mondays, we have something that should cheer you up: John Stamos' bare butt. (This isn't a false alarm. We promise.) The 52-year-old actor is literally baring it all for Paper magazine's #Fandemonium issue -- and giving us all something to smile for on a Monday.

By the looks of this photo, it's safe to say Stamos has serious game at the squat rack. Also, the man is a vampire; he doesn't age. The actor called the bottomless shoot the "craziest" thing he's done all year. We're going to have to disagree with him on this one. Obviously, the craziest thing he's done all year was reunite the "Full House" cast for a Netflix revival series. (We forgive you, Uncle Jesse.)

But this is a pretty close second:

Given the success of his freshman Fox sitcom "Grandfathered" and the upcoming premiere of "Fuller House" sometime in 2016, it's save to say that Stamos' career resurgence (Stamaissance?) is only just getting started.

"This life has surpassed my ability to describe it," he told the magazine (hopefully, sans pants). "It's wondrous. I've found myself in so many absolutely unbelievable situations… it's all wonderfully insane."

Of course, there's always a downside to fame, and when it comes to insatiable tabloid fodder, he said he chooses to avoid it all together. So don't expect to catch Stamos Googling himself, OK?

"I rarely read about myself -- mostly because I'm tired of 'me' -- and also if you believe the good stuff, you have to believe the bad stuff," he said. "I just stay away."
