Lindsay, she done done it again. Early this morning, the past, present, and future Cady Heron, for I refuse to think of her as anyone else, was arrested in New York City for hitting a pedestrian then fleeing the scene. Lohan: 71; Bynes: 70. After hearing about the incident, I headed over to Lohan’s IMDb page, for reasons involving needing to know what her trademarks are (oh, freckles!), and noticed that back in 1992, she made her first credited TV appearance: as “Trick-or-Treater Dressed as Garbage” on Late Night with David Letterman.
The clip of her acting debut isn’t online, but she does talk about it with Letterman in another appearance in 2004:
Seeing that clip from only eight years forces home a point: that Late Night was ahead of his time. Years before anyone else knew that she wouldn’t show up for work, endanger people’s lives, inhale coke like it’s oxygen, sleep with Fez, sue a fictional baby, steal clothes and jewelry despite being loaded, and “smell like diarrhea,” David and his staff were aware that, ultimately, the word most associated with Lohan would be “garbage.”
Sigh.

Wait, wait. They still let her drive?
Boo, you whore.
Holy crap. I remember that Letterman and actually remember the kid dressed up as garbage. I thought it was funny as hell. Had no idea that was her.
Now she’s gone and sullied the good name of garbage. Pretty sure diarrhea wouldn’t appreciate the association, either.
It would have been eerily prescient if the six-year old Lohan had said “when I grow up, I want to be human garbage,” cause that’s actually how things pretty much turned out.
And like gargbage she gets picked up weekly. By the police.
So suck on that!
I heard they called her human garbage because she likes to fuck in dumpsters. I wasn’t sure if it was a metaphor or actually true.
Hot damn that’s some awesome foreshadowing.
Pretty sure garbage can’t give you The Herp though.
Say what you will, but give CBS and Disney credit for picking the girl that would have the biggest breasts… that’s some sound scouting there, you’d have an easier time picking a 4 tool infielder there.
*sighs* still no porn
