US figure skater Johnny Weir has a bad day on the ice, so what’s his excuse?

“I missed the bus. They changed the schedule,” Weir said. “It was every 10 minutes. Today it was every half-hour. I was late getting here and never caught up. I never felt comfortable in this building. I didn’t feel my inner peace, I didn’t feel my aura. Inside I was black.”

That’s about the lamest thing I’ve ever heard. And I’m not even gonna touch the picture with the article . . .
