Continuing in the ouch category, Florida woman Megan Mariah Barnes crashed her Thunderbird as she was shaving her bikini line while on her way to meet her boyfriend in the Keys. According to police reports the 37-year-old handed the wheel over to her ex-husband, who was seated in the passenger seat, while she proceeded to take care of business. After rear-ending another car, Barnes continued to drive for another half-mile before changing seats with her ex-husband.

And yes, we are also wondering why her ex-husband was with her while she was going to meet her boyfriend.

Other contestants described him as creepy, and the woman who chose him refused a date with him afterwards. Frighteningly, Alcala had already been convicted of raping an 8-year-old girl in 1968. Let’s hope they did better background checks when they casted I Love New York.
