Nothing can get us through our afternoon slump like a well-timed Facebook scroll. Memes, baby videos, a llama straight-up living for a leaf blower...it's everything you need to reset your day. But nothing has us cracking up as much as this amazing new commentary by R. Eric Thomas, who went to town applauding the work/werk of Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and our very own President Barack Obama. Just...enjoy.
Really makes up for that awkward handshake, am I right?
