Little kid demands an apology from Mike Pence after getting accidentally bonked on the nose.

Sometimes it is hard to get kids to mind their manners, but this little boy is going so far as to make sure that everyone else is minding theirs—even if you're the Vice President of the United States.

Vice President Mike Pence was flanked with children while giving a speech for National Military Spouse Appreciation Day at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on Tuesday, and accidentally bonked one of the young'uns on the nose when he outstretched his arms. The Veep didn't seem to notice, but that little kid sure did.

This video by The Huffington Postshows how it calls goes down.

"Excuse me, you owe me an apology," said the child, trying to garner the attention of Pence. The vice president didn't seem to hear the boy, and went around administering awkward hugs and high-fives to the rest of the children. Nevertheless, the little boy persisted.

Eventually, the boy was able to grab the ear of the Vice President, and Mike Pence apologized for accidentally tapping the child's face by saying, "Oh, I'm very sorry, I didn't mean to bop you."

All's well that ends well, but you should see what this kid does when you put your elbows on the table!

    Russell Davison lost his beloved wife, Wendy, when she died on April 21 after a 10-year battle with cancer. She passed away peacefully in bed at home, surrounded by family and their dog, Elvis.

    Davison hopes to change traditionally-held beliefs about dying. Speaking to the BBC, he explained, "I did not want her in the mortuary or handed over to a funeral director, I wanted us to take care of her ourselves at our family home, have her in our bedroom so I could sleep in the same room." He added, "Death seems to be such a taboo subject in our society, no one seems to want to talk about it."

    So he wrote a beautiful and deeply touching memorial about his wife's life and death on Facebook, which has now gone viral.

    My absolutely wonderful, truly remarkable, much loved , respected, fearless, brave wife, best friend & soul mate Wendy...

    Posted by Russell Davison on Sunday, April 23, 2017

    As he explains in the post, his wife was diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2006, and they decided to take a "natural approach" towards treating the illness, which Davison credits with extending his wife's life "by a very long time."

    In 2014, Mrs. Davison was told she had only six months to live, so the couple decided to go traveling across Europe. They bought a caravan and adapted their jobs so that they'd be able to work remotely. They learned to snowboard and brought their sons to visit them "many times," having "the absolute time of our lives, the sort of things dreams are made of."

    They went back to England in September, when his wife's pain became unbearable. She received hospice care at the Royal Derby Hospital, but she didn't want to stay there. So she was cared for at her home by her husband and family, and they decided that her body would stay in their home until the time came for her to be cremated.

    Davidson wrote of her death:

    Wendy died very peacefully , fully sedated, in no pain in mine and Dylan’s arms with our ever faithful dog Elvis smuggled up right next to her too. Within a short space of Dominic, Luke & Amy , Benjamin & Erica were all by her side too. After a while myself Amy & Erica gently and lovingly washed Wendy’s body, dressed her and placed her in her cocoon, it was very special. She looked absolutely beautiful, just like she always did in life, no effort, no makeup just radiant beauty.

    In his Facebook post, Russell Davison discussed the "strong spiritual beliefs" that have guided the pair over the years. He wrote:

    Wendy’s body is laid to rest in our bedroom. The picture above is the alter we have made to help honour her, it is at the head of her cocoon (we don’t like the word coffin) in our bedroom. We are sitting vigil with her body until she is cremated on Thursday. She will not be alone at all during that time.

    Jak Ward, a contentious trusts and probate lawyer, told the BBC that it's perfectly legal to keep a body at home until the funeral, so long as the death is reported and registered (Mrs. Davison's doctor did report her death, as required). He explained, "Historically people would die at home and the body would be kept until the funeral."

    What a lovely tribute to an amazing-sounding woman. We're honored that Davison chose to share his story with the public.

    Someone asked Neil deGrasse Tyson if he ever fell down and got a shockingly real response.

    In the wee hours of Wednesday morning, beloved astrophysicist/TV host/planetarium director/viral god Neil deGrasse Tyson tweeted one of his trademark rhetorical observations about life, science, and the universe. This time, the topic was human intelligence (or lack thereof).

    Cheery. Meanwhile, a Twitter user named Mike thought of the perfect question to test Dr. Tyson's willingness to acknowledge his own brain's limitations.

    He should have known NdGT wasn't that easy to stump.

    The reaction from Twitter was basically a supernova.

    As it turns out, Tyson had fallen prey to the old "thought it was a DM" trap.

    Of course, it was too late.

    Here's hoping Dr. Tyson never changes (his pants).

    This dog can't help that someone snapped a photo of him looking like a doofus monster while he was trying to catch a ball, but he had to know when he saw the picture that he'd become the subject of a Photoshop Battle. (Didn't he see what happened to this beluga whale?)

    The original photo appeared on Reddit on Tuesday. Here it is.

    How could you not take that weirdo and put him into random situations? A Photoshop Battle was born.

    The dog became a music superstar.

    He appeared on horror movie posters.

    Would Ross and Rachel have an easier time if they could just change their relationship status to "It's Complicated"? Would Joey open every Tinder conversation with "How you doin'"? (Yes, of course he would.)

    Jennifer Aniston was the guest on the first episode of Arianna Huffington's Thrive Global podcast, and joked about what Central Perk would be like if the show started now rather than the sweet, innocent 1990s.

    "We were jokingly saying that if Friends was created today, you would have a coffee shop full of people that were just staring into iPhones" shares Aniston. "There would be no actual episodes or conversations."

    Awww look at Monica, reading a real paper magazine on paper.

    Could she *BE* any more right?

    It's true:

    Chandler would be busy trying to write jokes on Twitter.

    Monica would be busy meticulously organizing her recipes on Pinterest.

    Ross would be arguing on some paleontology board on Reddit.

    Rachel would be commenting on fashion brands' Instagrams.

    Joey would be swiping right on everyone on Tinder.

    Phoebe would be scrolling through something random like Farmers Only.

    The friends didn't have cell phones in their pockets so they weren't afraid to get wet.

    Aniston revealed how her use of technology has made it difficult for her to sleep.

    “If I think back before devices, I’m trying to think first, which came first, my bad sleeping habits or a device?” says Aniston. “I honestly think I used to sleep beautifully and I don’t think I attributed to the fact that these phones came into our lives that have actually started to disrupt our sleep.”

    Being robbed would be a scary situation for anyone—unless you're 50 Cent, that is.

    According the The Daily Mail, the rapper's 50,000-square-foot home in Farmington, Connecticut was burglarized on Tuesday. 50 Cent was not home at the time.

    Curtis Jackson III wasn't super phased, though. The rapper uploaded a picture of this headline with the caption "What my house got robbed,I thought I sold that MF 😳LOL."

    Jackson bought the mansion from Mike Tyson back in 2003 for around $4 million. According to The Daily Mail, 50 Cent sold the property in 2016 to a developer who planned on turning the 52-room mansion into an assisted living home, but the deal fell through. The super-sized home is currently on the market for $6 million.

    Police charged 34-year-old Elwin Joyce of Windsor, Connecticut, with burglary, trespassing and other crimes. Kind of rude to rob a dude who is already bankrupt, Elwin.

    Well, after getting shot nine times, I guess getting robbed is not that big a deal.

    • The bloody hand print on the window.
    • The scratch marks (or gills) on the blind man's neck.
    • The skull in the coffee cup.
    • Everything on the menu costs 15 (truly terrifying).
    • The notebook has the word tentacles written in it.
    • Everything's tilted, and the people may be losing their balance.

    Mom claims United airlines forced her to pee in a cup and that wasn't even the worst part.

    On the same day a Kentucky doctor was notoriously dragged off a United Airlines flight a month ago, another passenger was having a nightmare experience with the same airline. As if you needed another reason to take the bus.

    A Kansas City ER nurse named Nicole Harper was on a United flight home to Houston with her family when she became a member of the fast-growing Mile High Misery Club.

    The mom-of-two, who has an "overactive bladder," wrote in a Facebook post that she was forced to pee in a cup and then publicly shamed by airline crew, who had refused to let her use the bathroom on the flight. Oy.

    Here's her full story:

    United Airlines forced me to pee in a cup, and then shames me... I wasn't sure I wanted to share this story... but...

    Posted by Nicole Harper on Saturday, May 6, 2017

    "After explaining that I have an overactive bladder and would either need to use the restroom or pee in a cup, I was handed a cup by flight attendants," she wrote. "Bad enough? No, crew then escorted me to the restroom (now it’s safe to get out of my seat), shaming me down the aisle while other passengers overlooked."

    She also claims that the airline crew was "allowing other passengers to get up and use the restroom on a seemingly uneventful flight" and that a man in first class "walked right by a smiling flight attendant and entered the bathroom" after she had been told she wasn't allowed to and had already peed in the cup.

    "What!?!?! Was I on candid camera?" she wrote.

    Harper added that while peeing in a cup wasn't a ton of fun, "the way I was treated by the flight attendants afterwards was [even] worse." She says the staff was "absolutely horrible" to her and her family the rest of the flight, and that when she tried to file a complaint after, there was "absolutely no customer service." "I asked to speak with customer service several times and was told repetitively this was not an option," she wrote. "They said they had not received my complaint"

    United says that the incident occurred "on descent" when passengers are required to "remain seated with the seat belt fastened per FAA regulations." They also insist that Harper was never told by flight attendants to "use cups instead of the lavatory," KCTV reports. This is the statement from the airline:

    Customer safety is always our first priority. Initial reports from the Mesa Airlines flight attendants indicate that Ms. Harper attempted to visit the lavatory on descent and was instructed to remain seated with the seat belt fastened per FAA regulations. At no point during the flight did flight attendants suggest that Ms. Harper use cups instead of the lavatory. We have reached out to Ms. Harper to better understand what occurred.

    Given United's track record, we are inclined to believe this woman.

    Taking the Greyhound bus has never seemed more appealing. They let you use the bathroom whenever the hell you want.

    Stranger Things star Millie Bobbie Brown was in attendance at Sunday night's MTV Movie and TV awards, where she rocked a white dress with matching white cowboy boots. Pretty cute get-up for a girl of 13. But it seems not everyone thought she looked appropriate. Insider put Brown on the "worst dressed" list, claiming she looked "comfy but lost in a shapeless white dress."

    But as the Twitter account @elevenstare (named, presumably, after Brown's Stranger Things character, Eleven) pointed out: She's THIRTEEN. What's she supposed to wear, a bustier and mini skirt?

    Millie Bobbie Brown in the "offending" dress.

    Betsy DeVos got booed so badly during a commencement address, the dean had to intervene.

    On Wednesday, Secretary of Edukayshun Education Betsy DeVos gave the commencement speech at Bethune-Cookman University, a historically black university in Florida.

    The selection was strange, as the controversial cabinet member was previously accused of whitewashing the role of segregation in the creation of historically black universities, but she dressed up in academic regalia and gave it her best shot.

    DeVos took to the podium, and was promptly booed, joining Ivanka Trump in the exciting, exclusive club of Booed Trump Administration Officials.

    Just listen to the symphony of booing:

    A lot of grads even physically turned their backs on her in protest.

    The dean of the university even interrupted the speech, saying that if the students didn't quiet down, he'd have to mail them their diplomas. But nevertheless, the graduates-to-be persisted.

    DeVos was honored with an honorary doctorate, which was also met with a protest and confusion from Twitter.

    And celebration.

    Before the big speech, a petition to disinvite DeVos described giving her the honor as "an insult to the BCU graduating class, students, alumni, family, friends, and Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune’s legacy."

    While the petition did not succeed, the students certainly made their voices heard during the ceremony.

    Of all Dr. Pimple Popper's recurring patients, Momma Squishy may be the most beloved. This mom suffers from steatocystoma multiplex, a condition which causes much of her body to be covered in small cysts full of a waxy yellow liquid. But now, she has some competition. A new patient with the same condition visited Dr. Lee recently, bringing even more cysts than Momma S. with him. This anonymous man's nickname has not yet been determined, but popaholics are already in love.

    We all probably have some questionable tweets sitting in our drafts folder on Twitter. On Tuesday, John Mayer made the bold decision to share some of his Twitter drafts with his followers, and they are just as strange and confusing as the man himself.

    I like that John Mayer refers to his Twitter drafts as "rejects," like a bully would refer to a rag-tag group of kids in a Disney Channel movie. Anyway, let's dive in.

    1.

    I'd like to imagine that Mayer wrote this one when he was thinking of trying spoken word and was gearing up for a poetry slam.

    2.

    If anything, this gives us a glimpse into Mayer's struggle to understand technology. (Is connecting to Bluetooth that hard?)

    3.

    Well, great. Now we all know his password. Better change that, John.

    4.

    Wow, that got dark. Thanks to John Mayer, we're now questioning the very meaning of our existence, and are twice as scared of dying as we were before.

    5.

    I wouldn't trust those results if I were you, John. Feral dogs can be very unreliable.

    We hope you've enjoyed your glimpse into John Mayer's psyche. It seems like a very odd and mysterious place.

    Dating can be really awkward, but writer Priya-Alika Elias has a dating horror story so uncomfortable, it might inspire you to delete Tinder here and now.

    Elias, who appropriately goes by "Cat Grandma" on Twitter, recounted the story of how she accidently ended up on a date with a very old man. And when I say "old," think less silver fox and more keeper of the crypt.

    It started when Priya stumbled upon an innocuous profile on OKCupid, a free online dating website popular with millennials.

    Despite not getting a clear picture of this dude's face, Priya decided to give it a shot. The two started making plans to meet in person, and that is when the first red flag arose.

    The two settled on grabbing coffee instead, and the date was set.

    Yep. It was Priya's date. And he wasn't what she was expecting. Let's just say the guy was more mature than she thought he was going to be.

    Sexy.

    Although Priya never learned his actual age, she gave an educated guess:

    Anyway, back to the date.

    Okay, that is all nice enough. Perhaps the two can just part ways having a sweet conversation that transcends the awkwardness of their large age gap.

    But then things got weird.

    No, like...really, really weird.

    Several skull emojis indeed.

    How the hell do you come back from that?

    So how did this all end?

    Yeah, sounds like a good plan.

    Of course, Twitter was immediately skeptical of this story, but Priya insists that everything she tweeted was true.

    Most of Twitter was just shocked.

    and amazed

    and definitely disgusted.

    Because honestly, bragging about your oral sex skills after knowing someone for 60 minutes is creepy no matter what your age is.

    Welp. Just another reason to never go on another date. Ever.

    These bizarrely sexual posters at a middle school ask students to 'bust a N.U.T.'

    "Please, bust a N.U.T.!" This is the literal message on some well meaning but Not Safe For School flyers supposedly spotted on the wall at Seabrook Middle School outside Houston, Texas.

    The sister of a student at the school shared a photo of one of the flyers on Twitter, where it went viral, of course.

    "My sisters middle school put these flyers all around & i honestly have no words," she wrote in the tweet, which has been retweeted over 12,000 times since yesterday morning.

    "Please, bust a N.U.T.!" reads the flyer, and it then explains:

    N - Never Abandon your friends!

    U - Understand your friend's feelings!

    T- Tell your friends how you feel!

    N.U.T. all over your school!

    UMMMMMM W.H.U.T.??? Those are all great pieces of advice. But the presentation is.... odd, to say the least.

    It's possible, as one person theorized on Twitter, that whoever made these flyers legitimately didn't know the meaning of the phrase "bust a nut" (to prevent further mistakes, it refers to male ejaculation, school administrators!).

    Or maybe someone on staff at this middle school is an aspiring comedian who should save their "blue" material for open mic night in the future. It's also possible these flyers were posted by a student (or teacher) as a prank.

    We can't confirm.

    What we can confirm is that Twitter is going N.U.T.S. over the photo, and the responses are hilarious.

    Worst case scenario: someone gets fired or suspended over this. Best case scenario: the students keep mum and somehow none of the teachers know what "bust a nut" means, and the flyers get to stay.

    You make my heart beat faster than my anxiety does.
