Is it just us, or was it obvious from the beginning. I think we all knew he was gay even after pulling that same old Michael Jackson becoming a daddy stunt. He can sing though, can’t take that from him.
Most of you would probably not dress up like a “Tooth Fairy“. Or go as far as to post pictures of yourself dressed like a tooth fairy on your Facebook page. But many of you probably would call in from work for a “family emergency” out of town so you could attend a kick ass Halloween party. That’s what Kevin Colvin, intern at Anglo Irish Bank, did only to have his boss find the picture and email it to the whole office. Oh yeah, he also got fired.
Sarah Palin wasn’t the first mayor of a small town to thinking about beauty competitions. These pictures, posted by a relative to her myspace profile, got the mayor of Arlington Wisconsin totally recalled. Constituents of Carmen Kontur-Gronquist were outraged complaining that her sex appeal made her unfit for office.
More racy photos. Well we know what goes down on social networking websites. This is an art teacher from Austin Texas who posted this on flickr. Students found the nude pictures of Tamara Hoover. We guess she could not convince school officials that this was art because she was forced to resign.
Crack is wack and its definitely not sexy to show the world your plaid Walmart specials. But the move some cities across America are making to ban the “hot mess” act of wearing droopy pants exposing droopy underwear suffered a setback recently. A Riviera Beach Florida judge has decided a town law banning sagging pants is unconstitutional after a teen spent a night in jail accused by the “Fashion Police” of exposing too much underwear.
Although we think this act is a hot mess, we have to go with the judge on this one on freedom of expression.
The crazy crimes just won’t stop. Richard Anthony Smith, a 25 year old Knoxville Tennessee man called police to the scene of a crime he was committing. He called 911 for help because he was trapped in an air conditioning duct leading from the roof of the Knoxville Museum of Art.
When officers arrived on the scene. Smith told them “Mission Failed” an that he was “a special agent from the United States Illuminati, badge number 0931″ and had rappelled onto the museum from a helicopter.”
He said he was following orders to “defuse and confiscate” a Soviet-made nuclear warhead, specifically a “MERV6SS-22AN” warhead, according to the report. The bomb supposedly was hidden in a blue, plastic cow sculpture in the museum basement, he said.
However, Smith told officers his “agency” called while he was in air-vent limbo to say it made a mistake and the bomb might be in a Memphis museum instead.
The guy was charged with aggravated robbery and is held on $2,000 bond at the Knox County Jail.
What a hot mess but lucky dude. If he didn’t have that cell phone he could have become a fossil in the museums air conditioning duct. What if he is telling the truth?
More Weird and Wacky news hot off the press. This may or may not be funny to some of you.
Police spotted a man in Tellahasse Florida walking his dog naked around 8pm. When they asked the man what he was doing, he responded “Allah told me to watch a Bruce Willis Movie and walk the dog,” according to an officer on the sceen. He alledgedly became beligerant and uncooperative with officer commands and got himself tazered. Of course he was later shipped off for mental evaluation.
The officers said that was the only way they could contain him without hurting him. Check out the video below of another tazor incident. Do you think this is the only way not to hurt a beligerant suspect.
Ok that guy gets a hot mess vote for trying to run from the cops with his pants falling down. Sadly Shaking Head.
The world is watching as the sequel to the “OJ Trial “gets underway. Everyone glued to the tube anticipating the fate of the Juice. Well maybe not. Things may be alot different this time for Simpson. Not only that the trial may not be as sensationalize as the first trial, but the incident involves the who’s who of Oceans 11 rejects, a mostly white jury, and the verdict of the first trial luming overhead, It looks like OJ is about to get juiced.
This is just a list of some news feeds that give you an idea of what kind of mess goes on in justice systems accross the world. Some of these are funny. Enjoy
Sexism Card
Italian and U.K. legal authorities have recently discarded rule interpretations based on embarrassingly anachronistic stereotypes of women. In July, Italy’s Court of Cassation reversed a 1999 ruling creating a legal presumption that a woman wearing tight jeans could not be the victim of rape because such jeans would be impossible to remove without her assistance. [Daily Telegraph (London), 7-23-08]
Coincidentally, at about the same time, the British government formally removed the special, ameliorating defense of “provocation” for husbands charged with murdering their wives, thus putting domestic homicide on the same footing as other homicides. (Some husbands had received lesser penalties by claiming that their wives’ affairs had provoked them to murder.) [Daily Telegraph (London), 7-22-08]
Compelling ExplanationsJonathan Williams, 33, was convicted of cocaine possession in England’s Guildford Crown Court in July, as jurors rejected his explanation that the pants he had on (containing the cocaine) were not his. [The Guardian, 7-9-08]
That explanation also failed in August in Naples, Fla., for Richard Obdyke, 19, when police found a stolen debit card in his pants. (In both cases, the men said they had no idea whose pants they were wearing.) [Naples Daily News, 8-27-08]
And in August in Corpus Christi, Texas, a 25-year-old man was arrested for drug possession during a traffic stop, despite his volunteering to police that “It’s not my truck,” and “If you find something (searching it), it’s not mine,” and “If there’s anything in that black bag, it’s not mine.” [Corpus Christi Caller-Times, 8-22-08]
Gill Switalski, 51, filed a lawsuit in London, seeking the equivalent of almost $40 million for her dismissal from the Foreign and Colonial investment firm, claiming she was fired illegally during an illness. However, F and C asserted in June that it found an instance during a particularly sickly spell for Switalski when she interviewed for a job at a competitor while demonstrating enough energy and drive to have received an offer of employment. Switalski said she was merely using an “alternative personality” during that interview. [The Times (London), 6-19-08]
In July, Leroy Mcafee, 55, was charged in Austin, Texas, with molesting an 11-year-old girl but confessed to police that he had molested two others, as well. However, he refused to describe those incidents because he wanted to save that information for his autobiography. [American-Statesman, 7-8-08]
What Goes Around, Comes AroundAccording to police in Bethlehem, Pa., four kids (ages 9 to 14) grabbed a donation box in August at RiverPlace park (contributions to an organization that maintains the park’s portable toilets) and ran for nearby woods, with several police officers in pursuit. Three boys were caught, but the other made it a little ways into the woods before falling into a manure pit built by homeless people at their encampment. [The Morning Call (Allentown), 8-5-08]
The Litigious Society
After failing the West Virginia Bar Exam for the second time (during which he was given an extra day to complete it), Shannon Kelly filed a lawsuit in July demanding even more concessions based on his unspecified cognitive disability. The second failure was also on a special version of the exam in large type, and Kelly had been permitted to work in a room by himself. He now believes he can earn his license if he is allowed four days instead of the normal two, to make up for (according to his lawyer) “severe deficits in processing speed, cognitive fluency and rapid naming” (though it is not clear how many attorney jobs are available for someone with such a skills set). [West Virginia Record (Charleston), 7-25-08]
The Poor Dear: Harry Shasho filed a lawsuit against New York City in August for $190,000, charging that his Bentley was poorly cared-for at the city’s automobile impound lot in 2005. It had been confiscated after Shasho fatally struck a pedestrian (for which he was later leniently sentenced, perhaps because the pedestrian was drunk). The city claims the only damage done was from the fatal collision, but Shasho believes city employees should have treated it better. [New York Daily News, 8-24-08]
Just another Hot Mess Story. Wish we had a picture of this guy to put into the photo battle. It would be interesting to see how that Micky Ds does a loyal patron’s body after all those years.
A 54-year-old man says his obsessive-compulsive disorder drove him to eat 23,000 Big Macs in 36 years. Fifty-four-year-old Don Gorske says he hit the milestone last month, continuing a pleasurable obsession that began May 17, 1972 when he got his first car. Gorske has kept every burger receipt in a box. He says he was always fascinated with numbers, and watching McDonald’s track its number of customers motivated him to track his own consumption.
The only day he skipped a Big Mac was the day his mother died, to respect her request.
The correctional-institution employee says he doesn’t care when people call his Big Mac obsession crazy. He says he’s in love with the burgers, which are the highlights of his days.
The old saying goes there is two sides to a story and that is the case with an incident involving Gary Coleman aka “Whatchoo talkin’ ‘bout?” Arnold Jackson from “Diff’rent Strokes” and a fan name Colt Rushton.
The incident happened outside of a bowling alley in Payson, Utah where Coleman claimed Rushton followed him to from inside and insisted on taking pictures of him after he repeatedly declined. Rushton was knocked to the ground by Colemans Truck and another vehicle was damaged.
Rushton claims he was only trying to get his cell phone from Coleman’s wife when he was ran over by the truck. No one was arrested but Rushton did seek medical attention for his injuries. Police are still investigating the story.
By the looks of those ashy hot mess fingers and lips in the photo. Coleman should have been happy he still getting some attention from fans. This photo is definitely getting added to the hottest mess battle.
The question that loomed over this years VMAs was whether Britany Spears would repeat the dope fein of a performance she had last year or would she shine and show the world that she crawled out of her downward spiral. Because she didn’t have to perform this year the bar may have been set a little lower. But we cant take away her winning three top awards. So after a bruising custidy brawl with k-Fed, the dope, and enduring the papparazzi who broadcasted almost every moment of her apparent demise, maybe she has made a come back.
