The Yale Book of Quotations has named “don’t tase me, bro” as the most memorable quote of 2007. Following that, was Miss Teen South Carolina garble about map readings in U.S. classrooms. So basically, 2007 was memorable for its stupidity. [Reuters]

Remember that University of Florida student who asked John Kerry some not-that-controversial questions and was promptly "tased" by some overzealous policemen toting stun guns? Well, apparently they weren't overzealous so much as "acting well within state guidelines." Both officers have been cleared of all charges.

From CNN: "Woman says she didn't deserve Taser treatment." Jeez, lady, why don't you just cry about it join a Facebook support group?

Listen, bro. We all know you got tasered. We all know that, despite looking hilarious, that must have really, really hurt. And we all know that you were, understandably, pretty fucking pissed off about it afterwards.

But then you had to go ruin your (cough) credibility by forming a Facebook group to help ease your pain (i.e. make the most out of your thirty-seconds of fame) which struck us as both shrewdly opportunistic and slightly wrong somehow. Which is why we weren't particularly sorry to see that the enterprising folks over at BWE had turned your excruciating yelp of pain into an already-over T-shirt slogan.

And with Halloween right around the corner, it couldn't come at a more opportune time! In a recent discussion regarding cheap-but-amazing costumes, we floated the possibility of carrying a water-spritzing fan around and telling people we were "El Nino." But now we've got an even better costume idea:

We'll just be a loudmouthed college kid best known for having to be physically restrained during a speech by a former presidential candidate no one else cares about.

Remember that kid who launched a polemic against John Kerry and then got tasered? Forgot? Come on, it was only yesterday.

The kid, Andrew Meyer, or The Andrew Meyer as he refers to himself on his Web site, is an aspiring journalist. The tasering has been a shock (sorry) to his career. As soon as he gets out of his jail clothes, Meyer is slated to appear on CNN.

This kid is so big time that his email address is famouswriterman@aol.com. It's hard to say what's more professional about that, the moniker or the AOL domain.

He also started a Facebook event called Don’t Taser Me, Bro.

Facebook is truly remarkable: Not only is it a great way to reconnect with old friends, it’s also the ultimate place to stand up against police brutality.

Police arrest, tase Meyers; Kerry does nothing.

University of Florida student Andrew Meyers rants at John Kerry; Kerry does nothing. And Bush accused Kerry of being a flip-flop.
