Andy Dick...Precisely

There's something sad in all of this, and it would be a lot worse if Andy Dick had talent. But here he goes again, completely worked over by his own addictions. The latest incident happened outside a Buffalo Wild Wings in Murrieta, California, and involves Dick, marijuana, Xanax, and an unfortunate victim.

According to reports, the comedian groped a 17-year-old, and pulled down her tank top and bra to expose her breasts. He was arrested a short time later after the victim and a witness identified Dick after the truck he was a passenger in was pulled over by the local constabulary.

This guy's a mess. And there are certain messes out there who can be worth the trouble, whose talent is worth taking the risk, and who might benefit from a steady hand of reassurance. Robert Downey Jr. was one, for instance, hired for Ally McBeal while still losing to his demons. By and large, that paid off for everybody, and pretty quickly.

But what do you do with the Scott Weilands, Amy Winehouses, and Andy Dicks of the world? Certainly, they need help, but if you stop letting them work, maybe it gets worse. But if you help them get work, they feel like they're functioning.

In Andy Dick's case, I'm trying to remember when he was truly funny, and nothing comes to mind. It was funny when Jon Lovitz kicked his ass in a bar about a year ago, so maybe he's due for a few more rounds with the other J-Lo. It's about time for him to grow up and get a real job.

While we're on the subject, though, take a look at this mugshot:

Now all of a sudden I'm thinking they miscast the Joker...
