And no, it's neither Homer nor O.J. It's an MIT student named Star Simpson, who decided it would be a brilliant idea to wear a shirt with what appeared to be an explosive device on the front of it -- to the Boston airport! Needless to say, she was arrested and charged with possessing a hoax device. She claims that it was "art." I wonder if she would find prison bars to be similarly "artistic."
She's not the only college idiot this week, of course. She still has a long way to go to top Andrew "Don't Tase Me, Bro'!" Meyer from the University of Florida, who was tasered at the John Kerry forum in Gainesville the other day, for yammering on after he overstayed his welcome at the microphone, and then resisting arrest when the campus cops tried to escort him out. Although Simpson's charges probably were more serious, Taser Boy still takes the prize as the most arrogant, self-absorbed jerk of the week -- and he had to beat out the subject of the forum to do so, which was no easy feat.
