We’re sure we could find a snarky response or two, but most people seem enchanted by this photo of President Obama and some Brownies. We all know this is one president who isn’t afraid to break the rules from the Constitution on down, and we admire his willingness to break his own rule about “putting stuff on your head.”
Pres. Obama in April 2013: "Here’s the general rule: You don’t put stuff on your head if you’re president. That’s politics 101" (more)

It’s not the crown he likes to wear around the White House in private, but it does make a cute photo — and we guarantee it will provide Photoshoppers hours of fun.

True; how do we know it wasn’t President Obama who convinced the girls to wear tiaras?

There's really no getting around the fact that Obama no longer gives a f**k: pic.twitter.com/NVtjsUD9Uj

We know this wasn’t taken today; the president’s currently in Hawaii golfing with the president of Malaysia.

On Instagram, official White House photographer Pete Souza explains:
Still editing 2014 Year in Photos. I may include this one even though it’s a posed photo. This is from the annual White House Science Fair. The kids from Girl Scout Troop 2612 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, convinced the President to wear a tiara with them for their group photo. The girls had exhibited a Lego flood proof bridge project.
@jeneps @petesouza Clearly a man comfortable with his manhood.
