Nicole Richie set free after serving a harrowing 82 minutes in jail

Categories: Apropos of Nothing

Nicole_lWhich is about the amount of time it takes me to do four loads of laundry*. What kind of things can you do in 82 minutes?

(*Using three washing machines and two jumbo dryers at my neighborhood laundromat — not including folding.)

    Four loads of laundry! My wash cycle is about 20 minutes and my dryer takes about 30. I could complete one load and get the sencond in the dryer in 82 minutes (assuming I actaully got up and took them out when the buzzer goes off). You must have some super speedy machines!
    Oh so 82 minutes – I could watch a two hour movie on TIVO skipping all the commercials.

  • Deb

    That’s about the round-trip length of my daily commute to and from work. Why did they even bother?

  • Jilly

    I can watch a kiddie movie with my children.

  • GeeMoney

    What’s really messed up is that all that Paris Hilton did was get caught driving on a suspended license, and she received 20 days in jail. Nicole and Lindsay receive TWO DUI’s, not to mention have extensive drug backgrounds, and these b****es receive a slap on the wrist! I’m not complaining about Paris, but our justice system is a little messed up, don’t you think?

  • Gretchen Weiners

    Yes, please mourn our justice and corrections systems! They’re in shambles. Everyone needs to understand that what happened with Nicole Ritchie and Paris and what will happen when Lindsay spends less than a day in jail is NORMAL! They are not getting special treatment by any means. You should be pissed that current policy and sentencing guidlines have jails and prisons so overcrowded that people are released after serving a fraction of their sentences! Don’t complain on a blog – do something about it!

    in 82 minutes I can check pop-watch blog 116 times for updates to the comments (as long as my boss stays safely in her office)

  • Chuck_A

    In 82 minutes, I can get TWO women pregnant and hope that neither do drugs, drive drunk and/or wind up doing jail time.

  • Dio_K

    Mow the front and back yards, then watch an ep of Arthur with my kids.

  • Silv

    I can imagine all the damage and injuries an intoxicated bimbo can wreak in 82 minutes when she gets behind the wheel of her car.

  • Kevo

    I could drive down the shore and relax in the sun. Or vaccuum and dust my house. Or take a nap.

  • To Chuck_A

    K-fed? is that you?

  • Little Lamb

    Watch roughly 2/3 of a Harry Potter movie. Man, that must have been grueling for her.

  • Meta

    I believe the Disney movie pocahantas is 83 mins. so we’d just miss the credits.
    Also we could watch half of Titanic, which really in theaters those 3 hours were jail sentance.

  • Allison

    Mourn over the fact that if I got caught with Cocaine and admitted I have a drug problem ( I’m talking to you LINDSAY LOHAN) I would be in jail for the next 20 years and lose my teaching liscence. Congratulations American Justice System.

  • D

    Be “intimate” with the wife 41 times…too much information?

  • Julie

    I’m pretty sure I can get a mani-pedi in 82 min.

  • Julie

    I’m pretty sure I can get a mani-pedi in 82 min.

  • Dawn

    Watch 2 episodes of Friday Night Lights.

  • Sheniqua

    In 82 minutes I could make all of the sandwiches nicole should have been eating for the past couple of years! girlfriend needs some food!

  • Jess

    I can mourn the fact that someone teaching license spells “liscence” this way.

  • Jess

    I can mourn the fact that someone teaching license spells “liscence” this way.

  • Todd

    Be thankful of her release so we can finally get back to talking about her successful celebrity career and contemplate her many achievements both in Hollywood and in the world at large. Oh wait, that said 82 minutes, not seconds. My mistake.

  • Megan

    Take a 15-mile bike ride, or clean my apartment’s living room, dining room and kitchen, including vacuuming and dusting. Or watch most of the Shark Week episode of “MythBusters”.

  • Melissa

    I can count to 60 approximately 82 times.

  • Jackie

    82 min huh?
    * take a 83 min nap (oops I overslept)
    * watch 2 episodes of Smallville
    * talk on the phone
    * read the newspaper and detox from all the crap that E! News gives us.
    Stop treating celebrities like gods!!

  • K-fed

    Darn! My Chuck_A alias has been discovered! And here I thought that I was being discreet.

  • Londey

    get through one hellishly long and boring macroeconomics class…I think I’ll take the jail cell anyday.

  • meredith

    I can watch 2 and a half episodes of Sex and the City. I choose The Post-it Always Sticks Twice as one of them. This is the one where Carrie almost gets arrested for possession, that’s in honor of Nicole…
