A charter school in America's insufferable kid and parent-related news mecca of Brooklyn has outlawed hugging in the halls between classes because school officials find the practice "distracting" for the children. Smiling, eye contact, quotes from Will Ferrell movies, and dumb made up handshakes are still allowed. But…
Even though it's only existed for just over a 24 hours, we've already fallen for the Hugs From Drake tumblr. It makes it seem like the dude is just handing out cuddles. We're interested. If he spoons, we're down for that too. Whatever. We're flexible.
No, really. Just watch. Thank you, Facebook.

Today, a man reveals a deep, embarrassing secret: he likes to cuddle. So does his penis.

A new survey shows bullying is, indeed, disturbingly prevalent: half of teens said they'd hit someone in the past year. Is the cause a shortage of hugs?

You really have to stop pestering the other editors on their day off. It's not nice. Why are you so angry? We can all get along swimmingly. Peas and carrots, I tell you. Let's learn from each other. Or just yell.
