Things got crazy at the Jersey Shore yesterday! Snooki was arrested, and a shark swam up to the beach at Seaside Park. But video shot there proves that nothing can fully stop an afternoon of fist-pumping at the shore.

As you know, Snooki was arrested today in Seaside Heights for disorderly conduct. And judging by this video—obtained moments ago by TMZ—in which Snooki attempts (and fails) to get on a bike, it's not hard to imagine why.

Last night, the second season of Jersey Shore was unleashed upon America with the fury of a pack of juiced up, ecstasy-popping beat beaters. After roadtripping down the east coast, the cast arrived at their new digs in Miami.

TMZ reports that Jersey Shore guidette Snooki was just arrested on the beach in Seaside Heights for "disorderly conduct." When is she ever orderly? Details are still sketchy, but we already have our "Free Snooki" T-shirts made.

Due to environmental and societal factors, the subjects of the most important sociological experiment of our time—the eight guidos on MTV's Jersey Shore—were forced to leave their native habitat and migrate to Miami. The results were amazing.

We have waited and prayed for this day to come and now it is finally here. The return of Jersey Shore! What better way to celebrate than by joining us in our live blog to talk shit about the show!

The second season of Jersey Shore starts tonight. Yay! What if you didn't watch the first season? What if you just need to brush up on your guido particulars? What if you want some inside scoop? We've got you covered.

Barack Obama has been caught in a contradiction. Asked about Jersey Shore star Snooki on The View today, the President replied, "I don't know who that is." But two months ago he knew who she was! Nitpicky video analysis ahead.

The Jersey Shore stars sat down with Michael Yo to talk about taking their talents to South Beach for Season 2. And what's up with that rumor that Mike and Pauly D threw caution to the wind and made out on camera?

Meet Deena Nicole Cortese, a 23-year-old friend of Snooki's from New Egypt, New Jersey. According to her defunct MySpace profile (don't worry, we've got screenshots) she is "ADDiCTiVE & ExPENiIV3 LiK3 COCAiNE!" She is America's newest court jester.

Matt Lauer sat down with Chris Christie, Governor of New Jersey, earlier today to talk about the state's economy. Somehow, the conversation changed and the elected official shared his harsh feelings on the Jersey Shore kids.

After a special in The New York Times, Morning Joe responded to Snooki's father's questions about his daughter's popularity by running photos of Snooki with Nas' "It Ain't Hard to Tell" in the background.

"What it does is takes a bunch of New Yorkers—most of the people on Jersey Shore are New Yorkers... drops them at the Jersey Shore, and tries to make Americans feel like this is New Jersey," said Christie. "I can tell people, they want to know what New Jersey really is? I welcome them to come to New Jersey anytime." (Note that he probably didn't mean to make that last bit sound like a threat; that's just how people talk in New Jersey.)

Even better than his yearbook photo is this family portrait of Jersey Shore's The Situation and his siblings from MTV's When I Was 17. How did he let his sister block his abs? Bonus shot of DJ Paulie D inside.

Jersey Shore hooch JWOWW is one fit lady, so you'd think her body wouldn't warrant too much retouching for this new Maxim spread. Yet they inexplicably erased her belly button. Maybe it was just to get rid of the bling?

The fabled Jersey Shore strike, which has inspired generations of labor activists, has finally ended. But not without cost: Angelina, crushed beneath the pitiless bootheel of capitalism, will not return. Truly, she is the August Spies of our time. [TMZ]

Back when Jersey Shore first started, it was met by protests from the local tourist board. We suggested residents of Seaside Heights embrace their new image. Well, they have, and it's gone horrifically awry.

The heroic Wobblies of Jersey Shore may have just executed a successful strike: MTV will reportedly make a deal for somewhere near the cast's initial demand of $30,000 an episode. Solidarity forever! Bread and roses! Bread and roses! [THR]
