LiLo Going to Jail?!

Well, Lindsay Lohan is at it again… or is she? Following her DUI in August 2007, Lohan was ordered to attend alcohol education classes weekly. Now, in violation of her probation, it is reported that she has been attending every 21 days instead.

MJ’s Gay Lover Comes Out of Nowhere

My grandma once told me that she had a secret love affair with Elvis Presley during his gyration days of “Jailhouse Rock.” Although the claim was about as real as Heidi Montag’s chest, my grandma made a good point: it was her word against his, and because he is no longer with us, by default, her word prevailed.

4 Professors Who Deserve to Get The Boot

Remember in high school when you and all of your friends failed the same exam and you were convinced it was the teacher’s fault? “She never taught ANY of this stuff “ you bantered. In a fit of rage, you stormed to an advisor to make a complaint.

My Life As… A Fashion Student

Its 6:00 A.M. and your day is about to begin. You ignore the fact that its negative four degrees outside as you flip through your closet trying to pick out the perfect dress to go with your new chunky heels that you bought at the Barney’s sample sale. Of course you’re not going to tell the jealous girl staring at them in class that they were a sample sale find, you’ll let her think you went on a 5th avenue shopping spree this weekend.

Pop a Bottle…With Your Bikini Bottom

Thanks to the Snuggie and its family of unnecessary-but-ridiculously-popular-useless-items, get rich quick schemes are appearing everywhere. Potheads in dorm rooms all over the country swear that their invention is the “next big thing” and have no idea how the country has functioned thus far without the “Condomizer 3000” which dispenses condoms 1 at a time like PEZ.
