Want to party Justin Bieber at his place? No problem, there’s just one catch; you can’t breath a word of it to anyone.
TMZ recently posted a copy of the nondisclosure agreement (NDA) that you’re supposed to sign if you want to get anywhere near Bieber’s pad. It basically says that if you Instagram, tweet, or blog about one of Bieber’s parties you have to cough up $5 million. So much for that selfie of you and the Biebs jumping on his trampoline.
Isn’t that the whole point of partying with famous people?

For some reason the group thought it would be a great idea to grab a few chairs, a table and have dinner on the floating chunk of ice. Yes, they were Americans.
But you really don’t need the article to tell you what nationality they were.

Twitter limits you to 140 characters per tweet. Sounds pretty limiting, right? Oh, but the damage those 140 characters can do!
It can force powerful politicians to step down from office or topple brutal dictators. Usually, it just embarrasses the idiot who works in the cubicle next to you.
Emma Way, a UK driver, is that kind of idiot. Emma allegedly confessed to knocking a cyclists off his bike with her car on her Twitter account yesterday. In her tweet she stated,

Break out the sunglasses because the Tan Mom just released a music video. Actually, scratch the shades, you’ll probably need a welding mask.
Patricia Krentcil, a/k/a Tan Mom took some time out of her busy tanning schedule to record her new song simply called “It’s Tan Mom.” In the video she takes on her haters, calls out the Octomom, and disses people who work in the visual effects industry.
The video is about as bad as you’d expect it to be, but actually —

Law prof wants to eliminate C’s to cheer up dopey, lazy students

Law professor Joshua Silverstein wrote a piece in the University of San Francisco Law Review that’s sure to make him a hit on ratemyprofessor.com. He wrote that law schools should “substantially eliminate” C grades because they’re too stressful on students.
Silverstein argued that students who see a big fat C written on their paper would leave them psychologically damaged. Really, “psychologically damaged?” If he thinks getting a C is that traumatic of an experience just wait till they get that first student loan payment. Real trauma is having to pay back a $150,000 law school tuition.
He went on to describe other ways that low grades might damage students.

A man in China with a sledge hammer and a few hundred thousand to burn recently smashed his Maserati Quattroporte to protest the car dealership’s poor customer service. Yeah, that’ll show ‘em.
The man, who was only identified as Wang (no joke here, that’s his surname), accused the dealership of using inferior parts, scratching up his car, and being charged for repairs they didn’t make. Sounds like car dealerships are the same where ever you go.
Fed up, Wang and his paid group of merry mashers showed up at a car show being held in the eastern city of Qingdao to beat the car to a $430,000 pulp. Then, in case enough people didn’t see it,

A UK man claims to have stumbled on a vortex that lead to “other times, places and dimensions,” in his neighborhood. The man didn’t inspect the vortex any further saying he was afraid for the safety of his dog. No word on whether a blue police box from the 1950s was spotted near by. We have a similar portal that leads to all manner of creatures here in America but we call it Facebook.
Here are five dumb Facebook posts by people who are definitely living in their own reality.
