10 ‘Gaycons’ That Should Go Away for Good

Lindsay Lohan

On-again, off-again lady lover Lindsay Lohan was once a bright and shining star. Not anymore. A tumultuous relationship with a semi-famous female DJ, a few stints in rehab and jail time will do that to a girl. While accidents happen – forget the DUI; “I Know Who Killed Me” should have been considered a crime – it’s the wacktress’s apparent disregard for authority and woe-is-me attitude that leaves a bitter taste in people’s mouths. Throw in a family full of hangers-on who will stop at nothing to get their busted mugs on the cover of a magazine and you’ve got a recipe for we-don’t-give-a-shit-about-you-anymore stew. Hopefully there’s enough to feed the whole clan.

Steven Slater

Despite conflicting accounts from passengers on what really happened aboard JetBlue Airways Flight 1052 – the events that led to a grandiose beer-thieving, slide-releasing tarmac exit – flight attendant Steven Slater’s fame is still on the rise. Gawker called him a hero, Hot Air said he was an inspiration, and The New York Daily News sympathized with the steward’s plight, Scallywag although did not. But while Slater did what so many had-it-up-to-here employees dream of day in and day out, it’s his smug, I’ll-cut-you-while-you’re-sleeping smile dominating the Internet that’s enough to make even the most seasoned flier afraid of the friendly skies. Seriously, dude is a creeper. The only silver lining in this case is that maybe he’ll go away as fast as he got here. Fingers crossed.
