Meth fans in the Southwest: Do not be misled. Despite what your tweaked brain may be telling you, the blue meth you're buying was not actually made by Heisenberg or Jesse Pinkman. In fact, it's likely more dangerous than regular meth.

It's been two decades since Dr. Jim Withers first coined the term "street medicine," and he is still out there practicing what he preaches.

"I think this world would be better off having more young women holding a fish in a picture than holding their camera in front of a bathroom mirror, taking a selfie." -Sarah Palin. No PR people are writing her quotes! Never change, fish lady. [FB]

A 17-year-old girl was found guilty of distributing child pornography after she "sexted" pictures of her boyfriend's underage ex-girlfriend during a jealous fit last year.

"Mistakes were clearly made," New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said of Bridgeghazi/Bridgegate in his State of the State address this afternoon. Yes, benevolence and competence can be really difficult sometimes. As can the avoidance of clichés and the passive voice.

When Curtis Reeves Jr. killed a texting moviegoer and wounded a bystander at a theater outside Tampa yesterday with a .380 pistol, it sounded like a clear case of rage. But the 71-year-old retired cop may have been in fear for his life—and he may be able to take advantage of Florida's gun-friendly self-defense law.

More domestic airline flights are running late these days—17%, as compared to 14% a year earlier—but fewer passengers are filing complaints about it to the government, probably because they have suffocated in their seats.

Every year, the New York Police Department steals millions of dollars from poor New Yorkers. The code governing this ability was written in 1881, and ruled unconstitutional twice—and yet the seizures are still happening. Former Gawker weekend editor Max Rivlin-Nadler takes a look at the NYPD's civil forfeiture industry.

Fox News president Roger Ailes casts a reality distortion field so immense that even simple childhood stories stand no chance of escaping it. Reviewers (and readers) of Gabriel Sherman’s new Ailes biography have quickly latched onto an anecdote, conveyed to Sherman by a former Ailes associate, regarding how Ailes’s father, Robert Sr., intentionally let him fall from his bunk bed in order to teach him a lesson. It’s almost certainly a lie.

In the fall of last year, I noticed a lump in my left neck which felt to me like a run-of-the-mill swollen lymph node. When it didn't go away I sought the advice of a doctor. Several months and countless medical tests later, the official diagnosis is stage IV non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

A millionaire Taco Bell franchise owner was sentenced to six months in jail on Monday for stealing his dead mother's Social Security benefits for 23 years.

No, Jeffrey Brown was not saying "fuck Gwen Ifill": The dozens of institutional Twitter accounts that just tweeted "f gwenifill," apparently did so because digital strategist Kate Gardiner—who runs them—was hacked.

In his marathon Bridgehazi therapy session/press conference last week, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie insisted he hadn't met with David Wildstein, the official who caused traffic problems in Fort Lee, "in a long time, a long time, well before the election." Like, say, when they hung out during the traffic jam.

The Poynter Institute describes itself as "a school dedicated to teaching and inspiring of journalists and media leaders." Teaching media leaders how to lose money, presumably.

When a man looks at his wife and four (!) children, what he really sees is the black iron prison surrounding him. How does he break out? In the case of Utah dad Ken Sullivan, the answer is the same red planet that has inspired humanity throughout history. Mars!

Despite occasional lapses in honesty, "Celebrities Read Mean Tweets" continues to be one of Jimmy Kimmel's most successful segments. But one thing has always been missing from the popular bit: Politicians.

Michael Scheuer has long been a grenade-tosser, from his days as a CIA officer to his anonymous 2004 broadside against the war on terror, "Imperial Hubris." Now, the Georgetown instructor has fine-tuned his argument: Barack Obama and U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron are legitimate targets for assassination.

Some science teachers are content with showing their class how to power lightbulbs with lemons. Other science teachers are a bit more hardcore.

A 77-year-old Walmart shopper attacked a handicapped, scooter-using fellow customer because the disabled man tried to purchase 22 items in a 20-items-or-less express line.
