A Texas Walmart customer has been charged with assault after getting caught on video head-butting a tax-prep employee during a heated spat inside a store in Deer Park.

Bigger and taller than the customer, the store employee seemed to have the upper hand in the fight. After the fight, she could be heard saying, “You better get her. You better get her. She coming in here messing with me. I’m at work.”

Funny Video - Truck Carrying Heavy Load Topples Over
This is probably the funniest video you'll watch today. A lorry carrying more bags of grain than it should loses its center of gravity as it drives down a sloping road. The people in the car behind had their entertainment of the day by getting it all on camera as the truck battled gravity and lost, falling flat on its side. Watch closely to see a guy on top of the bags saving himself by jumping off at the last moment, LOL...

The Most Annoying People On A Plane - Starring Sir Patrick Stewart [Video]
In a new segment of the Jimmy Kimmel show, they talk about flight experience. According to them, travel company Expedia conducted a poll asking fliers to name the most annoying types of airplane passengers.
There is the chatty Charlie that will start talking to you immediately the plane takes off, even when it is clear you don't want his/her conversation. There is the stinky snacker who brings his smelly food on the flight. Not to forget the seat climber who jumps over you to get to the loo without asking you to move aside, the seat kicker, and the landing clapper. LOL... I didn't know the landing clap annoyed some people.
And wait, there's more... Jimmy Kimmel was going to just read the list, but he thought it would be more interesting if the great Sir Patrick Stewart acted it out. Watch below...

#DomesticViolence - Julius Agwu Makes Elevator Fight [Jay Z & Solange, Ray Rice] Parody Video

In a campaign against domestic violence from both sides, Nigerian comedian Julius Agwu is telling us the truth using some humor.
In two short clips, he reminds us of the elevator fight between Solange and Jay Z and how bad it looks. There may be little physical damage but it is a terrible blow for a woman to fight her man, or any man and him having to refrain. It is just as bad when the man retaliates and beats up a woman, worse, the physical damage is usually too obvious.
So Julius advices everyone to desist from the violence. I say let's make love not war :)

She gives us the juice on their movie-like first meeting, and the friendship and love that has endured through ups and downs. She said she is not fazed by the fact of his superstardom, but that when she wakes up beside him, all she can think of is 'Oh, I really love this boy'.
I like Toolz put her on the spot about why she said yes to 2Face even when had so many other women and children in his life, and her relationship with them all now.

Would You Prefer a Boy or Girl As Your First Child?
In Nigeria and most of Africa, having a male child as "First Born" has always been a big deal. For these people, having a male child is a cultural necessity. Husbands are hailed as "real men" when their wives have boys first. When the first is not a boy, some women will deliberately keep getting pregnant every year - though this is dangerous to their health and that of their babies - till they get the desired male child.
