Snooki’s Worth Her Weight in Gold(schlager)

A long time ago, we had high hopes for Lindsay Lohan, the adorable, freckled star of The Parent Trap who was said to have the potential to be one of the greatest actresses of her time.

Really, embarrassing moments are so much more than a shot to your ego, they are an opportunity to laugh at yourself (and others) if the time is right. They bring people together. They show us as we really are at our most vulnerable. And, when you look back, they’re really, really funny. Read More »
