Yea to the Oscars! Not that anyone really watched them. We were either studying for midterms or buying copious amounts of alcohol and beads for Tuesday.

Nay to "Pineapple Express" not winning an Oscar. Who the hell saw "Slumdog Millionare," anyway?

Yea for a post-mortem Heath Ledger winning Best Supporting Actor for the Joker.

Nay to Heath Ledger still being dead.

Yea to snow randomly appearing Thursday morning. We almost forgot how much we really hated it.

Nay to serious, life-crippling addictions. A 19-year-old Florida man was arrested for stealing a laptop at a Starbucks and running to a nearby outlet mall because he wanted to check his Facebook. Let this be a warning to all of you who break every 30 seconds from studying and paper writing to check for comments on photos you posted last April.

Yea to having it your way. Police arrested a 27-year-old McDonald's employee in Maryland for selling marijuana out of the drive-thru window working at the fast food restaurant.

Nay to buying weed from a 27-year-old working the drive-thru at McDonald's.

Yea to cranky old people. A 29-year-old Florida man was chased down by a 75-year-old man from whom he had attempted to steal a laptop computer and printer from at a Best Buy. We hope he curb-stomped the thief while wearing Velcro shoes.

Nay to cranky old people who happen to be your grandparents … unless they give you money that's been hoarded since the Great Depression.

Nay to painfully disturbing images. The octo-mom was offered $1 million to do a porno. It's okay to throw up a little bit; we did.

Yea to rearview mirror air fresheners. An Alabama funeral home director left a decomposing corpse in a hearse when the deceased woman's family neglected to pay the final bill.

Nay to very bad people. A man stole $250 from a San Antonio, Tex. Brownie troop selling Girl Scout Cookies at a local Walgreens. Have fun in your bunk bed next to Hitler in hell!
