All The Reasons Drugs Are Bad For You, Presented In Video Form By Steve-O
4:46AM Molly Friedman | Today’s after-school special comes, as most do these days, from YouTube. Though recently 5150′d Jackass star Steve-O currently has bigger things to worry about than who’s hacking into his account and putting these frightening home videos up in his absence, we certainly get a bitter taste of just what those things are after viewing this clip. After revealing a Winehouse-ian nostril dusted with white powder in the first ten seconds, Steve-O spends the next four minutes attempting to show us how to juggle in his backyard. But he’s noticeably, uh, distracted, and spends most of that time ranting about the war in Iraq, all the spacial dimensions that go ka-boom, and saddest of all, ruminates on this question: “Who cares when you die?” The most surefire way to teach your kids why drugs are bad, after the jump.

10:45AM Molly Friedman | After what feels like decades spent snorting wasabi and chugging live goldfish, time has finally clocked out on Jackass star Steve-O’s sanity. Star reports that Nicole Richie’s ex has been placed on the ever-popular 5150 hold popularized by fellow bipolar sufferer Britney Spears. Steve-O was sent to Thalians Mental Health Facility (the same place Owen Wilson once graced with his presence back in the Stallion’s sick days) after emailing suicide notes to friends and allegedly putting cigarettes out on his body. But Steve-O has more than straitjackets and a daily rainbow of pills to look forward to; he’s also been officially charged with cocaine possession, a charge dating back to when he assaulted a neighbour while high. We personally think Thalians should begin work on an annual yearbook, just so all these celebs who waltz in on one drug and out on another can KIT! and XOXO! each other after the misty water-coloured memories fade.
