Kathy Landin is a freelance internet pop-culture junkie (and web video producer). For a brief time in 2011, she was THIS close to being Charlie Sheen's social media intern for the summer. She's blogged for local TV stations, anonymous dating adventures and stupid advice columns. Mostly she entertains herself by practicing the fine art of idiocy, which you can watch in Kathy Landin's "I'm an Idiot" Show. Or, if you have a short attention span, get 140 characters of idiocy on Twitter.

Justin Bieber Checks Out of a Paris Hotel – Either by Choice or by Force
We all know that Justin Bieber is super famous. Derp. So it’s safe to say that wherever he goes, he attracts hordes of screaming -- and not always the most mature or in control of their faculties -- fans.
