Everybody knows that drinking and driving is bad. But what other substances don’t mix well with operating a 3000-pound vehicle at 60 MPH? Rather than making you try them all out yourself, this German dude has put together this little video to illustrate the 10 drugs not to take before driving.

If you’ve been drinking, the best course of action is to just stay put (and hopefully hook up with a hot chick.) What you should NOT do is get in a car, suck at driving, get pulled over, and then proceed to do everything exactly opposite to what the cop is asking you to do.

This is no joke – drunk driving kills or injures tens of thousands of people every year, ruining families and destroying innocent lives. It’s a foolish, needless act that has such dire consequences, getting behind the wheel while you’re even a little tipsy is an idiotic endeavor. But it’s not just others who suffers from drinking and driving – it’s mostly you. To give you an idea of how much it actually sucks, here are 10 totally selfish (but completely valid) reasons it sucks to get a DUI. (more…)

2008 was a year of great accomplishment for many professional athletes (MIchael Phelps and Nastia Liukin to name a few). For others it was a year of total FAIL! Sure, many failed on the field, but it was their idiotic actions in the off time that we will remember for years and years to come.  From steroids and pot to the unfortunate DUI, let us remember: The Year in Sports: Substance Abuse Edition.

Over the weekend, MTV hosted “BUSTED Live: Countdown to Lockdown,” at their studios in Manhattan, bringing in some of the most infamous “Busted” victims, the officers that busted them, and showing the audience some never-before-seen clips of the show.

COED was in attendance so read about what we saw go down or we will be forced to taser you like all those drunk college kids on the show! (more…)

Tyler R. Sutton, 18, pleaded guilty this morning in Tippecanoe Superior Court 2 to three counts of operating a vehicle with a controlled substance causing death and feticide, all Class C felonies.

If Judge Thomas Busch accepts Sutton’s plea with the Tippecanoe County prosecutor’s office, at least two of those counts would have to be served concurrently – meaning the former North Montgomery High School student could spend 16 or more years in prison. [Journal & Courier]

The Times Higher Education, a London-based higher-education magazine, recently ranked Penn the 11th-best university in the world, a three-place improvement over last year.

The rankings are based on peer and employee review as well as data on the school’s research output, teaching, and international orientation.

The survey ranked 200 schools in 32 countries.

Princeton University Professor Paul Krugman, known as much for his criticism of George W. Bush’s policies as for his academic work, won the Nobel Prize in economics for his theories on world trade.

Krugman, 55, was honored “for his analysis of trade patterns and location of economic activity,” said the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which selects the winners. His work showed how economies of scale influence trade and urbanization. [Bloomberg]

In a move that can only be described as utter and complete desperation for attention, former O.C. cast member Mischa Barton was arrested for a DUI on Wednesday.

Seeing how a drunk driving arrest boosted the notoriety of America’s Sweethearts Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Kiefer Sutherland, and that chick that played Topanga on Boy Meets World, Barton was spotted downing a bottle of peach schnapps on her way out of the Beverly Hill’s Liquor Mart after she was turned down for the role of Jayna (half of the Wonder Twins) in the new Justice League movie.

Studio insiders say Barton’s shamefully obvious stunt showed just how out of touch the fast-fading starlet has become. “Perhaps when her show was canceled, celebrity DUI’s were the mark of distinction. But today, it takes at least an unwanted pregnancy or some kind of amputation to show true guts in Hollywood,” says one source. “Barton’s DUI just looks tacky at this point. She might as well tell everyone she’s going green.”

PR guru Micheal Wetler wished he could have given Barton some good career advice before she drove the proverbial nail through her talentless coffin. “Be creative, damnit! If you’re going to get in the news doing something stupid, at least try to wow people. Assassinate a former Pakistani Prime Minister or SOMETHING.”
