A recent national survey concluded that there is no person or group of people Americans would detest having as neighbors more than the cast of "Jersey Shore." Pretty harsh, but since it's always been our motto to live and let live, we'll turn a blind eye and let this one go.

Just kidding--this is an absolute crock of sh**, and we simply won't stand for it.

According to Zillow Celebrity Neighbor Survey, nearly one-third of those polled couldn't fathom the idea of living next to Snooki, JWOWW and the rest of the beachy bungalow's inhabitants. Evidently, they'd prefer to share the same street as Christ's right-hand man, Tim Tebow, exhibitionist Nancy Grace and...Kim Kardashian?! Hey, to each his own, but living across the street from KK carries the chore of learning each new husband's name, and wouldn't you rather have a familiar, mega-tanned face toss down a sausage sandwich from a rooftop when you're struck by some midnight munchies? Sure, it might be paired with stray furniture, but what's a couch to the face compared to shouts of "WINNING!" drowning out even your loudest lawn mower? That's right: Even Charlie Sheen was voted a more desirable cul-de-sac cohabitant.

+ Would you consider laying down roots next to Seaside Heights' most infamous pad? Share your thoughts on having the "Shore" crew as neighbors.

It is a sad, sad day across the MTV board--not only did we lose Whitney Port and Vinny Guadagnino to sudden, violent explosions, but our two favorite nitwits, Beavis and Butt-Head, are peacing out (well, for now at least) after Season 9 of their show concludes in a matter of hours. And while Thursday nights certainly won't be the same without the real-life bobbleheads, their exit was certainly not a quiet one, and none of their public indecencies in Episode 12 disappointed.

B&B survived being trapped in an elevator and a security guard's corporal punishment at a women's health clinic, but even being Tased into submission couldn't prevent the pair from uttering some real winners--here are our favorite quotes from the dozenth episode, in which the two confused a place that offers abortions for one that offers sex-for-pay:

"Woah, Beavis--it's your mom!"
-- Butt-Head, in reference to a young male skater.

"How many is a billion?"
"Uhh, I think it's, like, a million?"
-- Beavis and Butt-Head.

"Please step back onto the sidewalk."
"Uhh, we know the owner."
-- A security guard stops Beavis and Butt-Head--who carry picket signs--from entering a women's health clinic, but the two still try to get in, as they think it's a brothel.

"Heh. We’re gonna be fornicators."
-- Butt-Head to Beavis, as the friends finally get the chance to enter the clinic.

"Are you one of the ones that, like, does it?"
-- Butt-Head, to a clinic receptionist.

Saying that Beavis and Butt-Head are far from perfect is as much of an understatement as saying that Snooki has a slight tan. The boys could use a fresh start, so as part of their path to becoming great men, we've listed a few resolutions that they should consider adopting in 2012. The goal, of course, is for them to obtain more chicks and "cool" stuff while simultaneously maximizing time spent on the couch. Take a look at our top five changes the duo should plan to make in the new year. One thing's for sure: You won't find any diet schemes here.

1. Get More Chicks: It's pretty self-explanatory, especially since the guys have completely hit rock-bottom in this domain. We hope they used their holiday vacation wisely and crafted a few seduction tactics that don't involve traipsing around abortion clinics for single ladies.

2. Install A Nacho Cheese Dispenser In The House: So much valuable TV time is wasted obtaining that sweet liquid gold. B+B should plan on putting their own cheese pump in the kitchen so they don't have to run out to the 7-Eleven every other hour.

A child's first introduction to Santa Claus (or whatever--spoiler!--mythological figure their family believes in) is a sacred moment, as it represents a whole new world for them, filled with amiable elves, endless presents and a fat man in a bright red suit. It's probably why Corey, who, during the most recent episode of "Teen Mom 2," got the wonderful news that there was nothing wrong with his daughter's brain and spinal cord, decided to pull out all the stops for his brood.

In this sneak peek of Tuesday's all-new episode, the good-spirited dad dresses up like Saint Nick and surprises his twins, Alianna and Aleeah, on Christmas morning. Even though Leah was previously disappointed in her husband for opting to work over attending Ali's doctor appointment, she's thrilled with his enthusiasm...until the girls start screaming in terror.

Most holiday celebrants have been busy corralling stray tinsel and killing that last piece of post-Christmas apple pie, but Whitney Port and Vinny Guadagnino recently fell victim to a missile strike while practicing jazz squares in the living room and enjoying a good book, respectively.

The jaunty "City" star and the "Jersey Shore" housemate (or their remains) posted the carnage to their websites only days after overdosing on Chanukah gelt and singing carols with family. Kin could not be reached for comment as they were too deep in mourning and too confused by the plywood and decorative sconces that remained in perfect condition after the airstrike.

Services are expected to be announced soon. The families ask for donations to local ballroom academies and libraries in lieu of flowers.

Coral figures out how to verify her own Twitter identity.

Back in 2009, Remote Control deemed Coral one of the "Five Biggest Bullies" to ever walk the MTV halls (and play the "Challenge" field), so it's surprising that the wildly entertaining Queen Bee managed to stay out of Twitter target practice for so long! However, someone must have convinced her over Christmas Eve's Feast of the Seven Fishes to join in on the fun, because the next morning she finally signed up for the micro-messaging service. World, meet @ThatCoral. We can't wait to see the type of thumb fights she gets into.

Elsewhere, Challenger Leroy has become a Robin Hood of sorts, passing on his sweaty high-performance Under Armour gear to the less fortunate (a great deed by the "Rivals" almost-medal winner, but let's hope he washed those bad boys before his donation). And veteran player Johnny Bananas found himself at the drugstore pondering the legalization of a certain cold medicine.

Check out what they and other MTV stars were up to this week:

Snooki builds up suspense from the backseat.

It's safe to assume that Snooki has a talented team of hair care professionals that diligently keep their ear to the ground to reinterpret and relay the newest fads to the "Jersey Shore" beauty queen. (What else could possibly explain the Hello Kitty head-toppers she sported a few months back?)

While many of us have been unenthusiastically brainstorming trite "New Year, New You"-type resolutions (ya know, all the ways in which we're going to try and look "better" in 2012), Snooki seems to already be getting a jump-start on hers. Earlier this morning, the never camera-shy castie snapped a photo of herself and tweeted the following cliff-hanger: "Bye bye dark hair ;)" After carefully examining her message, we've concluded that the use of "bye bye" implies that she's either chopping it all off--gasp--or dying her precious tresses again, which strikes us as a little more likely. So what's she got up her sleeve? The courageous glamazon has experimented with just about every color in the salon--from bright red to tie-dye--but she has yet to go golden. Cross your fingers for a Snooki Barbie!

+ What shade do you think Snooks should try out this season? When we asked you guys about her ever-changing locks last year, most of you were in favor of her staying brunette, so has your opinion changed? Sound off in the comments and be sure to check out MTV Style for more celebrity hair trends.

With 2012 quickly approaching and most of us finally stirring from our holiday food comas, we'd like to reflect one last time on the important happs of the past year. We're a little exhausted from writing so many Best of 2001 lists, so today we've decided on doing a poll. We want to hear from you: Which "Jersey Shore" guido or guidette was sporting the most swagger in 2011?

The entire crew had a pretty sick year, getting a free trip to Italy, where the limoncello poured freely and the cobblestone streets were begging them to bite it (and bite it they did, quite often). After watching the Shore Squad get wild in their bitchin digs, go clubbing every night and travel the country, we're pretty sure fans were a little jeal of "Jersey Shore"'s European vacation.

While everyone got to learn the finer points of fist pump, push-up, ChapStick in Florence, Italy, each castie had some individual successes as well. In the off-season, JWOWW landed the cover of Maxim, Snooki put out a new book and grabbed a Slammy, and Pauly D proved he had serious DJ chops--just to name a few. All this activity makes it hard to choose which "Jersey Shore" staple had the best 2011, but hey, life isn't about taking the easy way out. Vote!

On tonight's "True Life: The Riot in the Bayou 2," we were reunited with the Theriot family, who were living freely down in Louisiana. So how have they been doing since the show taped? Check out our Q&A with them below.

Was it easier being around cameras the second time around?
Collette: Yes, we got so used to the cameras that sometimes we forgot they were there, and we made total fools out of ourselves.

What sort of reaction did you get from people after the first show aired?
Daddy Cain: I caught a lot of grief from friends and family, but I stuck it out the second time around because it was a cool experience for the kids and I didn’t want to ruin it.

Tiff: There were definitely a lot of people drinking that hater-ade, but I got messages from people all across the country saying that they could tell how much I love my family and how they felt like we were just like them. And that really made me feel better about exposing my life on national TV. Until you’ve walked in my shoes, you really can’t judge. As a mother, raising teenagers is a wild and crazy ride, so people can love it or hate it. I’m just trying to do the best I can. In 20 years, we're all going to look back on this and we're going to laugh and remember what it was like to enjoy this crazy, unique experience.

It's easy for "Teen Mom 2" viewers to judge Chelsea for always taking back her baby's unreliable father, Adam, but how many of you can remember a time where self-control lost out to yearning, and you went ahead and sent that text or dialed his number...or, er, showed up at his house?

You can all put your hands down now.

It's like a twisted rite of passage for young women to become infatuated with a guy who's not necessarily good for them, and unfortunately for Chelsea, her romantic obsession is lasting a tad bit longer than the norm. Can you really blame her though? Adam is the father of her child, and every part of her being is holding onto the fantasy that he'll wise up one day and her family will be complete.

In this bonus scene from Episode 4, Chelsea's friend Erika stops by her house to lend an ear, and instead, she gets a phone. Adam is nowhere to be found just one day into Chelsea's recovery from knee surgery, and it's taking everything in the young mother's power not to text him for the 15th time. Because she anticipates a slip, Chelsea hands her phone over to Erika and asks her to hide it. Seconds later, it rings. Wonder who it could be (sigh).
