Transit Officer Arrested For Murder After Killing Black Rider
A police shooting of a black train rider on Bay Area public transportation has caused an outrage and fiery protests in the community, and today Johannes Mehserle, the BART police officer who fired the shot, has been arrested for murder.
On New Year's Eve, 22-year-old Oscar Grant was shot by Mehserle while lying face down in a BART station. While on his way back from celebrating in San Francisco, the young and unarmed African American was pulled off a train, along with others, so train police could investigate a fight.

Bart Is The Prank Call Master
What better way to celebrate the release of The Simpsons Movie than by enjoying a nine minute compilation of Bart's best prank calls? With requests for ridiculously named peeps like "Hugh Jazz" and "Bee O'Problem," Bart really knows how to deliver a quick laugh. What's even better is that the little punk gets away with it every time: "Why you little...!"

A Surprising Brouhaha Over the Use of the Word "Meh"
"Meh" is the online equivalent of saying to someone's face "whatever!" or my favorite variants, "whatevs" or the silent "W" formed with your thumbs and index fingers. The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman complained about it on Twitter last week, claiming that it represents that the user has "missed the point," or worse — rejects joy!

Hilarious Halloween Costume
I've gotta remember this idea for next Halloween. This awesome guy dressed up as Chairman Mao — framed in a picture, and carrying his signature little red book. I wish I'd run into him on the BART!
Kids Speak Up About Love
They may be young, but kids know a thing or two about love— or at least they think they do. Some of these answers are pretty darn insightful and others somewhat miss the mark, but they're all entertaining. But I'll give Bart my digits any day; he's my kind of date!
Dear Poll: Would a Name Ever Be a Dealbreaker?
My friend has a running list that contains the names of men that under no circumstances will she ever date. (Yes, I'm completely serious!) When I heard that certain names, including Harold, Frank, and Bart, were her dealbreakers, I couldn’t help but laugh. I mean, what can a poor guy do about his awkward or geeky name?
Product of the Day: Funyuns With Wasabi
I was out with a friend last night, and after some drinks, walking back to the BART, I thought, I need a snack—a trashy snack. Boy, I was not disappointed. Behold: Wasabi-flavored Funyuns.
Subway Break Dancing
Every morning when I get on the BART train, comatose people listen to music on their iPods, read novels, or studiously avoid one another's gazes. Boor-ing. What they need is these guys to narrowly avoid kicking them in the face Jackie Chan style to truly wake up and enjoy the day.
Springfield Meets Reality
The Simpsons Movie will hit theaters at the end of the month and a number of 7-11s across the country have been temporarily converted to Kwik-E-Marts to promote the release and make good Springfield citizens of us all. Thirsty? Try a frosty Squishee!
