So the car had a strong odor.
Maybe that was caused by eating at TacoBelle 3 hours earlier.

Why does it matter what color eyes the kid has? Can you imagine if the speaker said, "Remember that dark skinned, nappy headed little charmer from TV.?"

It seems they always have to mention it if the child is blond and blue-eyed, as if that makes him or her somehow more newsworthy.

Leave Lisa Rinna out of this.

Yall are all mean and cruel. People like yall are the reasons why kids turn out like him, doing drugs for an escape or even going as far as killing themselves. Think about how your words affect people even if they are typed instead of said. Bullying needs to stop. It may be a joke to you but to other people its real life, its reality for them and everybody's jokes only make it worse. Somebody's pain is never a laughing matter.

Comments on news stories are bullying now? Wow, I guess he bullied the heck out of all of us by appearing on television in the past, huh?

Not to mention who he could have hurt with the combination of drugs, alcohol, and a car. but forget that! Bullying is what matters!

I like how you use 'yall' and 'you' at random.

Hey kids, don't drive around with drugs in your car. It's the best way to get busted, particularly if you are loaded.

While waiting to visit someone in hospital, he saw a rerun of Home Improvement and was thus driven to get high. I would've done the same.

I saw this coming, as they made his character Goth in the last couple seasons of Home Improvement. Stay away from the black lipstick kids!!

Why should the be dropped?

This is what passes for News these days??
One sentence about some 4th banana, getting busted for DUI, 15 years after the last time he was attached to something semi-relevant?

Hey did you guys that girl that played "kimmy Gibler" on Full House go caught Jaywalking?

Oh, what fun. Another child star horror story. Is this where cultural schadenfreude kicks in or do we get a memo first?

[JackMcSpades]

03:17 AM on 02/02/2012

The word "star" sure gets tossed around alot these days.

[BooBoo Bob]

How about "former child actor who hasn't had a role since that one show"?

[exitor]

01:39 PM on 02/03/2012

so does the phrase "horror story". I mean, a DUI sucks, but..

And for the record, i dont think this qualifies as schadenfre­ude, we'd have to care before we could watch excitedly.
