You spoke, we listened. Back by popular demand, welcome to this week's Mug-Shot Monday, a longstanding franchise focusing on the week's most eye-catching mugs from South Florida's tat heads, tough guys, derp faces, and femmes fatale.
The Real Mr. 305 And lo, the people of Miami turned away from Pitbull, for he was a false prophet, and embraced their true savior. In all seriousness, if anyone has legitimate dibs on the Mr. 305 moniker, it's a hard-faced ginger in police custody with his hometown love inked across his neck.

AND NOW, NEW TIMES PRESENTS: WHEN CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOPS GO BAD

Dates older guys who drive motorcycles. And politely declines your repeated invites to grab a latte at the student union to discuss Sontag. And you cry, you cry, you cry.

The Sad Poet This guy obviously has a lot of drawers full of love sonnets scrawled on Subway napkins. Songs about unrequited loves, from his fourth grade gym teacher to that pixie hottie who always sits at the front of the poetry seminar.
Something's Missing from the Outfit Somewhere, there's a bright blond wig that's missing its owner.
