As many of you know, the Mayans have explained that we’ve got less than a year to live. Why not go out in style? A great barometer of your partying should be the following: even if the Mayan-theory goes the way of the Rapture (i.e. revealed to be total cockamamie horsesh*t)** your life should still be over in a year. To get a great headstart on the beginning of the end, you should take our advice and try to do at least three of the five things you’ll find after the jump!

Reality TV started with the “Real World” in New York and changed television forever. I bet MTV had no idea that over twenty years down the line such vile and vapid garbage such as “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and “The Jersey Shore” would spawn from a harmless airing of strangers living together. The idea snowballed into some really revolting and unethical shows in the future. Let’s face it, all reality tv is unethical, but the shows after the jump take the cake!

Reality TV is a beast all its own and we continue to feed it even when it spews out mindless garbage. It churns out star after star, giving each regular Joe their 15 minutes. Some manage to turn their fleeting fame into a career, branding themselves into a pickle-flavored empire. Isn’t Snooki on her last minute by now? The not so lucky ones fade into the background, only to appear on VH1 “Best of” shows and have their nudie pics “leaked” online. After the jump, take a look at these 10 reality stars you totally forgot existed and find out who they are by scrolling over the white space below each paragraph.

Last week, we brought you the 30 expensive things you could buy with the estimated $12B that could be lost during the NFL lockout. With football no longer on their schedule, players must seek alternative means to pass the time and, in many cases, make a buck. Before we were internet moguls… we were career consultants! That’s why we’d like to offer our services to the hundreds of pro football players who have grown tired twiddling their thumbs. As Tim Tebow or Kurt Warner can attest, idle hands are the devil’s tools. See our top suggestions for things NFL players can do during the lockout after the jump!

It’s hard to imagine a time when the television airwaves weren’t filled with mind-numbing, superficial reality TV shows. However, there was a time when the boob tube wasn’t so bad. Over the past 50+ years we’ve been able to watch pioneering programs that have deeply affected American culture and the media industry as a whole. Who knows where’d we be without their inflluences? Some say we’re worse off because of the envelope it pushed while others praise them for revolutionizing the way we think and behave. Take a look and let us know what you think. See our picks after the jump!

Each year we men find ourselves another step closer to enlightenment; the complete understanding of the female species. Unfortunately, just as we feel as though we’ve made huge advancements towards the aforementioned enlightenment, they go and pull the rug from under our feet, leaving us just as clueless as ever. Here are 5 things we learned about them this year. 2011 is looking pretty bleak…

Former MTV Real World star Mike ‘The Miz’ Mizanin recently surprised fans by cashing in his Money In The Bank contract and snagging the WWE Championship from Randy Orton in the process. The Miz’s journey has been a long one and, to be honest, almost no one took him seriously when he’d parade the Real World house with his fake championship belt. He’s like the Kurt Warner of the WWE. Actually, he’s one of a kind. No other reality TV star has achieved such a feat. It made us wonder, are there ANY other reality TV stars that could make it in the squared circle? Here are our nominees.

Shortly after 9 o’clock my phone rang. ‘Miller, Jason’ appeared on the caller ID. For a moment I was confused, and then it dawned on me. I had been expecting it to read ‘MAYHEM’. Not knowing who’d be on the other end of the line, Jason Miller or Mayhem Miller, I answered the phone – and quickly knew that you cannot separate the two.

Reality show contestants are fueled by one of two things: money or ego. The five contestants listed below stand out among the billions for their ability to ALWAYS entertain us no matter if it’s eating cereal or sabotaging alliances. Will the 5 greatest reality show contestants please… [cue dramatic music, play for extended period of time, show extreme close-ups] step forward.

With a funny, clever, and honest personality, professional writer Shallon Lester charmed her way onto MTV with her reality show, Downtown Girls. Although Shallon doesn’t claim to be an expert on anything, COED has witnessed her advice span from everything such as handjobs, to beer funnels in the bedroom, and of course, the root of her reality show, all things friendship.

Everyone with a webcam or a knack for having sex with married celebrities can get their fifteen minutes of fame. But only the truly talented can extend those 15 minutes into an interview on 20/20, a Playboy contract, and a television series. We’ve put together a handy guide on turning your 15 minutes of fame into a a lifelong career of book signings, national news mugshot cameos, and late-career sex tape success.

Well, we made it through the first week. We’ve met the addicts of Celebrity Rehab, gawked at the women fighting for the love of Frank the Entertainer and heard Mike, the surprising show homo, admit to having sex with 15 women and 5 guys on The Real World D.C. No joke, I replayed that scene no fewer than a dozen times — you can practically hear the music come screeching to a halt when Ty says, “You’ve had sex with five guys?!” Classic. Freaking classic.

Oh, did you miss it? No prob, I’ve got you covered
