Sherri Dickson proved that parents will do literally anything to get grandchildren.

Moms are pretty great. They'll carry you in their body for nine months, give birth to you in a process that apparently kind of hurts, and then support you emotionally and financially until you're ready to be on your own. Then, if you need them to, they'll do it all over again for your kids so you don't have to.

That's what happened for one North Dakota family. Mandy Stephens and her husband Jamie were very excited to have kids after getting married in 2013, but had a difficult time, and eventually turned to in vitro fertilization. Mandy became pregnant with a son, but tragically lost him after he was born prematurely. Their entire family was devastated, including her mother, Sherri Dickson.

Sherri, like all parents, was hard-wired with an irresistible genetic urge to become a grandparent and load up that baby with free cookies and birthday checks. She was determined to live that dream by any means necessary. So when she found out her daughter would need a surrogate to have any future children, she stepped up immediately. The 51-year-old volunteered to carry her 32-year-old daughter's baby.

The doctors weren't immediately convinced. At her age, Sherri was at risk for a complicated pregnancy, and there was something else: she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The disease, which attacks the central nervous system, increased her chances of slips and falls. But Sherri had considered this, and also knew she had something to gain from it. This is the cool part.

Researchers now believe that changes in women's immune systems during pregnancy help keep the symptoms of MS at bay. Sherri, whose MS was in remission at the time, knew that being a surrogate would increase her chances to keep it that way. Isn't science great? Through IVF, Sherri became pregnant last November, and gave birth to a healthy baby girl on July 31. Her parents named her Myla.

Sherri, a mother of 3, told ABC News that the process was (relatively) painless:

“Pregnancy was easy. I was very fortunate… I was playing tennis a week before I delivered, and working out with my trainer, but the delivery at 51 was way harder than the delivery at 33 with my last baby.”

Leaving aside the fact that Sherri Dickson is clearly an ageless superwoman, her gesture was very brave and sweet. It's also brought her whole family together. As Mandy said to KFYR:

"Myla, her name, means miracle and her middle name is James. She's named after her brother Theo James. So she is just like God's greatest gift to our whole family. We are so in love with her and she is going to be one spoiled girl because our family just dotes over her. We say it's Myla's world and we are just living in it."

That goes without saying. This is a kid who, in a manner of speaking, has three parents, one of whom is also a grandma. She'll be getting 150% of the attention that a normal kid gets. She'll probably grow up pretty spoiled, but one thing's for sure: she'll never take her grandma for granted.

It looks like Kylie gave Tyga a car to give Kylie for her birthday.

Everyone has pulled the move where you pick out a gift for yourself and tell your significant other what it is. It's best to do it with zero subtlety to ensure they definitely buy it for you. That is what Kylie Jenner did for her 18th birthday gift from her boyfriend, the rapper Tyga. But she added a twist, she technically bought the car. According to Radar, the Ferrari was leased in Kylie Jenner's name. However, Radar has some major details wrong; they referred to the car as a $450K Lamborghini instead of a $250K Ferrari, so hopefully this isn't just wild speculation.

Regardless of who bought the car, I hope this celebrity couple has a great time being with each other. They probably will, because the best thing to happen to Tyga's music career was to date Kylie. He even made a video about their love, sort of. Here it is, in case you missed it:

By writing this post, I hereby ignore Pink's advice to look up from my keyboard, enjoy the beautiful day, and not make a big deal out of her social media comments. Signed September 4, 2015.

Pink allegedly reportedly definitely wrote on her private Instagram account that the VMAs mostly sucked. Here's a screenshot of the supposed probable true comments, via an Australian gossip site:

The text, which matches what other outlets are reporting Pink wrote, reads:

I felt embarrassed and sad. And old. We're getting old. But in all seriousness; I felt sad because music is supposed to inspire. It saved my life. This trash won't save any kids life. In a world that is even scarier and with lives still worth saving, who will stand up and have soul? Disenfranchised to say the least. Let down by my industry and peers. Beside Macklemore and pharell and bieber (pre-sob fest) and the weekend, Tori Kelly was dope too. The rest was gross and embarrassing and hard for this aging pop star to believe.

Wow, that was pretty heavy for an Instagram comment. Also, can you believe celebrities have private social media accounts? Don't they know they owe us every part of their life, and every thought in their head?

Close readers will quickly realize that what's most biting about Pink's rant is the subtext. By saying that the only people who weren't "gross and embarrassing" were Macklemore, Pharell, Justin Bieber, and Tori Kelly, she's implying that Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Iggy Azalea, and Demi Lovato are "trash." She is also probably the first person in history to defend Macklemore. 

Demi Lovato responded in a delicate whisper. Just kidding, she tweeted.

Solid counterpoint. I mean I like Pink's songs but was anyone's life saved from "I can't stay on your morphine, 'cuz its makin' me itch / I said, I tried to call the nurse again but she's being a little bitch"? 

Pink says there's no feud here and that she didn't even remember that Demi Lovato performed, which is kind of a passive aggressive thing to say when your goal is to not start a feud.

Which brings us to earlier today, when Pink tweeted the advice I ignored about chilling out and going outside. Maybe she's right that people are too quick to accuse celebs of having beef. But she definitely sounds like a grandpa complaining about these kids and their new rock 'n roll music.

Like most feuds, real or imagined, the clear winner seems to be Nicki Minaj.

Trolling isn't always a bad thing.

It's just the mean-spirited trolls who give it a bad rap. Granted, those are the majority of trolls, but every once in a while, some noble souls have a higher purpose in mind when they decide to be annoying. Let's all take a moment to recognize the achievement of those who seek to make the world a better place by trolling in the name of justice. 

1. South Park takes on the Washington Redskins name controversy.

In the 18th season premiere of South Park, the boys start a company called "Washington Redskins" after learning that the football team lost the rights to their name due to its offensive nature. In a promo for the episode, the owner of the Redskins demands his team name back, saying that it's "derogatory" and "offensive" for the boys to use it. The scene does a great job of skewering the discussion surrounding the controversy, but what's even more impressive is the fact that they aired it during a Redskins game after buying commercial time in Washington, D.C., specifically to mess with Redskins fans. This makes me want to start watching sports.

2. Twitter destroys Paula Deen.

After Paula Deen caught a lot of heat for some racist comments, she kept tweeting from her official account as if nothing had happened. Twitter wasn't going to let her off that easy, though, and after she tweeted this—

—she got a barrage of hilarious responses from black people on Twitter:

This kills me with laughter faster than Paula Deen's food kills me.

3. Someone pretends to be Target customer service so they can make fun of customers opposing their new gender neutral policy.

After Target announced that it would be trying to make its sections less gender-specific, a bunch of people started commenting on their Facebook page about how they were terrible, ruining America, etc. Someone decided to make a fake Facebook account and pretend to be Target customer service. They responded to people's anger with some awesome zingers. It was glorious.

4. Patton Oswalt makes a puzzle poem to get everyone to stop being outraged so quickly. 

Patton Oswalt loves proving points on Twitter and this was perhaps his magnum opus. He sent a series of two-part tweets that when read together, are totally logical things to say, but when read separately, one of the tweets read like a hate crime. Of course, people took them out of context, and were quick to label him a bigot. He definitely got the last laugh, though, when they realized he was messing with them. For example:

And here's another:

And here's another, just for fun:

5. A crowdfunding campaign to send M. Night Shyamalan back to film school.

M. Night Shyamalan is the Weezer of directors. He made some good stuff early in his career, and then got so, so terrible. Some fans couldn't take it anymore, and started a crowdfunding campaign to send him back to film school. Although it's supposed to be a joke (they've only raised ~$700), they made a pretty great point. Shyamalan doesn't seem to be getting the message, though.

6. Weezer was similarly humiliated.

Speaking of Weezer, some non-fans started a crowdfunding campaign with a $10 million goal. The idea? To give Weezer the money in exchange for them breaking up.

7. A bunch of people mistook a political blog for the Supreme Court. They didn't seem to mind.

SCOTUSblog is a private blog that publishes pieces about the United States supreme court. After gay marriage was legalized, people assumed that @SCOTUSblog was the Twitter handle for the Supreme Court (they don't have a Twitter, because they probably wouldn't be able to come to a consensus on how it should be run). Naturally, they started receiving a lot of misdirected anti-gay backlash, and instead of correcting their haters, they responded with some amazing snark.

8. The Foo Fighters rick-rolled the Westboro Baptist Church.

For some reason, the Westboro Baptist Church considers the Foo Fighters an affront to god—they've demonstrated outside of their shows in Kansas city twice. During the most recent demonstration, Internet-sweetheart Dave Grohl and his Foo posse drove by them in a truck and blasted Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" to get them to STFU. If God exists, he was smiling down from the heavens.

9. Two Londoners exposed ISIS for how stupid and bombastic they are.

Ahmad al-Mahmoud and his friend Firas were bored, so they made up an Iraqi town called "Shichwa" and claimed that the Hashd al-Shaabi, an Iran-backed Shia militia group, had pushed ISIS out of it. They also photoshopped fake news reports to back up the story. All of a sudden, the Internet exploded. ISIS supporters were tweeting about getting revenge, pro-Iraqi government supporters were relishing in a victory, and al-Mahmoud was accused of being a secret Sunni agent. Al-Mahmoud and Firas, who are anti-ISIS but also critical of the Iraqi government, were laughing at how quickly everyone was adding their own, made-up facts to the story. They were also laughing because "Shichwa" means "milk pouch" in Arabic.

10. R. Kelly's AMA backfired.

In order to promote an upcoming album, R. Kelly planned to answer fan questions on Twitter using the hashtag #AskRKelly. It failed miserably. Fans started questioning him about his run-ins with the law over child pornography, and it was hilarious.

11. CollegeHumor threw shade at the Indian government.

The Indian government banned CollegeHumor, along with a bunch of other (websites) in a stupid censorship campaign. To get back at them, they published a piece called "12 Facts I Made Up About India Because They Can't See This Right Now." Too bad they can't see it right now!

In a VH1 special, Fogle made fun of the pedophiles who get caught on To Catch A Predator. (His comments start around 6:10.)

This 2008 episode of VH1's I Love The New Millennium must have made sense when it aired, but now it just raises questions. First of all, why was there a show looking back at 2005's pop culture in 2008? Is three years enough time to form nostalgia? Also, why was Jared Fogle brought in as a talking head? Even before the world knew that he was a pedophile, he was a punchline – not someone who delivers them.

Of course, VH1's producers had no idea of his creepy activities at the time, even though in 2008 he was texting with his girlfriend about paying for sex with teenagers. So nobody saw the irony in cueing him up to make fun of the pedophiles who were exposed on NBC's newsploitation show To Catch A Predator. Fogle's comments seem particularly ironic, knowing what we do today:

"These guys continue to fall for it every single time. There must be like a hundred million episodes of the show, and they still come out."

It sounds like he's making fun of them for being caught, instead of playing it smart like he did. Of course, for all his precautions, he would still be caught seven years later. But at least he never had to face Chris Hansen about it.

Sing to me on my birthday, but everyone sing a different song.

Today marks 34 years for one Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter, and her website honored the special occasion with her friends and family each dedicating a special song that honors cherished moments with their favorite bae.

Did you see the movie The Hangover? This bachelor party is the opposite of The Hangover.

Soon-to-be married man Robbie Chernow flew from New York to Chicago last week for one last round of ultimate partytimes with The Boys. However, none of The Boys made it. The Boys' flights were canceled, leaving Robbie to celebrate his last weekend of freedom totally Boy-less. However, he documented his one-man bachelor party on Instagram, and it's as funny as it is sad.

Robbie told Mashable, "The plan was always for me to arrive a few hours early... But once I landed I was notified that Delta canceled the flight that everyone else was supposed to be on and couldn't rebook them in a timely fashion." Even though he did all the activities solo, he got to do a lot of fun stuff and even commended his friends for planning "a very fun weekend."

I advise looking through Robbie's #chicagoforone pictures while listening to "One" by Three Dog Night.

1. Miley Cyrus.

Where do I begin? First off, she exists. Secondly, she hosted the VMAs and looked like a weird Dutch clown the whole time. Thirdly, she got called out by Nicki Minaj and had a pretty whiney response. Fourthly, we all saw her nipples. Fifthly, we all saw her nipples again. Sixthly, she refers to her grandma as her "mammy." *catches breath*

2. Donald Trump.

Donald Trump was on good behavior. Sure, he said he'd re-re-name a mountain, he got in an Instagram feud with Jeb Bush, and he thinks Kanye loves him. But still, there's a chance that he's going to become president, and that by itself should put you in a constant state of wanting to drink to forget about our nation's problems.

3. Kim Davis.

The Kentucky County Clerk refused giving out marriage licenses so hard that she ended up in jail, and still won't give up, despite the fact that gay couples have started getting married in Kentucky. There should also be a spot on here for her supporters who are making a martyr out of her, but I'm tired and it's Friday.

4. This artist that is making rugs that look like skinned gangsters.

Mexican artist Renato Garza Cervera made an art exhibit called Of Genuine Contemporary Beast in order to address public perception of LA's gang problem. It's a pretty awesome work that sheds light on how society often unfairly scapegoats one minority group for a larger social issue. It's also super creepy.

5. This airline passenger who threatened to bring down the plane if she couldn't sit with her cat. 

A 34-year-old Czech Model named Zaneta Hucikova was on a flight from Last Vegas to Frankfurt. She was traveling with a cat in her purse, which she claimed was a support animal. She was told by the crew that unless her animal was in a crate, it would have to be locked in the bathroom during the flight. She then slapped a flight attendant, threw a paper cup at another, and started screaming about how she had mob connections and was going to burn the plane down. The flight staff diverted the plane to Denver and got two F-16 fighter jets to escort it to the airport. Hucikova was arrested, and because she doesn't have a U.S. visa, was locked in a immigrant detention facility. Granted, locking a cat in a bathroom is pretty messed up, but still, not messed up enough to go this apeshit. The Internet learned that she's a Donald Trump supporter, however, so it kind of makes sense.

Championship cuteness.

Peyton Manning was joined by his 4-year old son Marshall on the field before the Broncos preseason game in Denver. Little Manning imitated his dad's every move, and it looks like there may be yet another quarterback in the family, just like his father and uncle.

The Broncos lost the game, but Marshall won everyone's heart.

Anne Hathaway opens up about ageism.

Anne Hathaway revealed that she has already begun losing roles to younger actresses now that she has reached the decrepit age of 32. She's speaking specifically about film roles, because she did just announce that she's going to produce and act in a TV adaptation of the novel The Ambassador's Wife. Anne did acknowledge to Glamour U.K. that this same ageism benefited her early in her career.

"Now, I'm in my early thirties and I'm like, 'Why did that 24-year-old get that part?' I was that 24-year-old once, I can't be upset about it, it's the way things are. I can't complain about it because I benefited from it. When I was in my early twenties, parts would be written for women in their fifties, and I would get them."

Hopefully candid statements like this actually help thwart the practice of ageism. Until then, Anne may have to defy the effects of time in order to win another Academy Award

Put your phone on airplane mode before you commit a crime.

A New Jersey man was arrested after he accidentally butt dialed 911 while describing plans for an upcoming robbery. Police said they overheard Scott Robert Esser and a partner in crime discussing break-ins and items they planned to steal. When he was arrested, they found jewelry, electronics, $11,300 in bonds and a handgun in his car. Everyone knows you don't just leave your bonds lying around the house. You put them with your jewels in a giant glass case protected by an intricate pattern of lasers. 

I bet his buddy was really happy with him for being brought down in the lamest possible way. He'll have plenty of time to be mad at him behind bars.

The only thing she's missing is a martini.

Professional surfer Maud Le Car took to the waves in heels and a cocktail dress and proved she has superhuman balance and leg strength. The 23-year-old, born on the island of St. Martin in the French Caribbean, is currently ranked 15th in the world. She tweeted that the feat was performed because she lost a bet, but a hashtag in her tweet suggests otherwise.

Para'kito is a mosquito repellant and just happens to be one of her sponsors. And you know what? It doesn't matter! Most commercials are crap, and this video is a joy to watch. Plus homegirl has to get paid. Hopefully both her sponsorship money and waves keep rolling in.

Before the Internet, how did we know when one person looked like another person?

This is Claudia Alende, a woman who would be chosen as Megan Fox's doppelgänger if she ever did one of those annoying videos trying to locate identical strangers. The 21-year-old Brazilian woman told Buzzfeed, "I don't really see the resemblance." But people started commenting on her Facebook pictures pointing out the similarity, and here we are at this historic moment.

This is Megan Fox:

Wow. Really makes you think. About how one person looks like another person, and how both are attractive. You can think about this even more as you re-watch the feature film Transformers. 

Meanwhile, my doppelgänger and Patronus remain a baby goat on a trampoline.

LA Splash Cosmetics has a brand new line of Disney Princess lipsticks.

They're like regular lipsticks, but the colors are named after female Disney characters. Apparently, this goes a long way. Many people on Instagram have lips, and many of those lip-having Instagram users love taking pictures of themselves with makeup, as we've learned time and again.

Now, you can search [hashtag]+LASplash+[Disney princess name] to see what the different shades look like in real life.

Like, here's the Ariel shade, and yes I chose that one first because it's my own name too, and no, I don't have to explain myself to you.

And here's Nala:

Aurora:

Jasmine:

Evil Queen:

Wow, what a journey we've been on. A journey through lipsticks. Now if I told you LA Splash also makes a line of Harry Potter lipsticks, would you be able to handle it? 

Donald Grump is a shockingly accurate portrayal of a politician by a similar name.

Ten years ago, Donald Trump was in the media for his television show The Apprentice, and the children's show Sesame Street did a great job of making fun of him. Today, the video draws many parallels to the Donald we know today.

In the clip, Oscar the Grouch and his friends are loyal supporters of Donald Grump, saying "He's got the most trash of any grouch in the world," and "He's loaded with trash, his name in on every piece of trash in town." The puppet Grump/Trump even says, "I'm the trashiest, I'm the grouchiest" Agreed!

Although it's supposed to be a parody of The Apprentice, when Donald Grump fires two people and immediate has them removed by hailing them a taxi, it eerily echoes his anti-immigration policies.

Both Trump and Grump are two fluffy-haired, cranky dudes, but I'd rather have the puppet version be the one running for president.

Sometimes cute videos will make you sad at the end. This is one of those videos.

Pigs and puppies are both very cute and love all the same things, including not being eaten. Mercy For Animals put together this video reminding us that both pigs and dogs are sweet, loving pets. It will make you smile until the end, when you'll be reminded that pigs are the animal that supply us with bacon, ham, pork and probably a bunch of other meat names I can't think of right now.

I already cry at adorable animal videos, so adding a message about not killing/eating animals at the end is a sure fire way to make me tear up at work. I'm not pushing the vegetarian agenda, you can make your own decisions. But everyone can agree this is very awwwwww.
