Adios Mutherfucka!

It's a wonder why people still get their lover's name tattooed on them. We all know it's probably not going to end well, and then people are stuck with the embarrassing reminder. However, this Valentine's Day a nice plastic surgeon could save you from that mistake you made with Candy or Butch.

CosmetiCare in Newport Beach is currently holding a contest for the most dramatic ex-lover tattoos where five winners will be chosen to have that tattoo removed for free on Valentine's.

Pretty hilarious, and awesome. More »

A woman tells the Weekly Regulus grabbed at her two weeks ago, and today he's back behind bars for allegedly masturbating outside a Costa Mesa video store. Which means we've got a new ugly/fabulous police mugshot of the 40-year-old transient.

Before a woman named Olive was attacked by a complete stranger in her San Clemente residence in May 2011, the young man yelled, "Shut the windows!" and "Keep the demons away!"
