SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. — Calling her "a Lindsay Lohan wannabe," a judge has fined "Jersey Shore" star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi $500 and ordered her to perform community service after she pleaded guilty to disturbing others on a New Jersey beach in July.

Her lawyer said Wednesday that Polizzi was under the influence of alcohol when she stumbled around the beach in Seaside Heights, using loud language that disturbed other beachgoers.

Polizzi apologized to police and anyone else she bothered, claiming her behavior was not scripted as part of the show, even though cameras were rolling.

Municipal Court Judge Damian G. Murray gave her credit for one day of community service that she spent caring for abused and neglected animals at a zoo Sunday.

4. I'll break it to you gently.

There are people out there who do not watch stuff like this.

Heck, I hadn't even heard of Snooki until a few weeks ago. My life has not been enriched by the very, very little I know of her, and it's certainly not impoverished because I don't give a flying you-know-what about her. Or her ilk.

5. What's sad is I have never seen the show, but because of the media

I know most of the characters. Dumbass must sell.

9. People demanding instant, constant attention are the result of increasingly invasive technology

and those who cater to it.

Or sompin'. Actually, I just wanted some attention as well, utilizing this convenient technology which allows me to be noticed by everyone here.

I blame society.
