The ten dumbest evil geniuses of all time. List starts off with a crappy chracater that doesn't qualify as the "best" of anything, but it gets better

Does the list include subby for referencing a "chracater"?

Consider me infuriated that they included said chracater. Once I find out what a chracater is, anyway.

what an awful Top 10 list. For starters, it contains 11 entries, not 10 (despite subby linking directly to #2). Then, doesn't anybody remember that Top 10 lists are supposed to count DOWN, not UP? Were you people born in BARNS? Finally, the list is all over the place - you have one honest-to-dog evil genius, e.g. Doctor Doom, at least one evil genius wannabee, referring of course to Dr. Horrible, and then a bunch of badly drawn cartoons that nobody who has made it past 6th grade drama would dignify with the label "chracater".

Rarely is the Is subby blowing a modmin or something?

aargh, premature submission. That last line should read:

Rarely is question asked: is subby blowing a modmin or something?

At least this wasn't a misuse of "their."

For some reason, the io9 top ten lists start with a placeholder image of the last one listed and an introductory paragraph. The second page starts the countup/down.

a) Count the villians. See if you get to 11. We'll wait.

b) Regarding the Venture Brothers, you know not of what you speak.

I say good day, sir.

How is Cartman on this list? He nearly took over the US to win a bet and made Scott Tenorman eat his parents.

Finally, a thread where I can gripe about Con*Air. (Yeah, I know it was 12 years ago.) Malkovich's character is supposedly a genius, but he keeps saying the stupidest things.

"And if you say a word about this over the radio, the next wings you see will belong to the flies buzzing over your rotting corpse."

Apparently evil super-geniuses don't get that when your body stops working, it takes vision right along with it.

Yes. That always bothered me as a kid. He can mail-order a fully functional catapult, rocket-sled, and flying Batman costume, but he can't get a can of Spaghetti-Os?

a) You might note that I said 11 "entries", not 11 "villains". Look at the page, there they are, numbered 1 to 11. I didn't read deeply enough to form a theory about why the author included Victor Von Doom twice - maybe he likes DOOM? The point is, a Top 10 List shouldn't have 11 entries, no matter how the stupid website does it. It's just gauche (and bad programming).

b) I must acknowledge that you are correct on this point. I humbly submit to your superior knowledge until such time as I become educated in this regard.

And good day to you too.

It's off topic, but the cartoon question that always bugged me the most was this: how did the Scooby Doo gang finance their adventures? As far as I can tell, they just drive around solving mysteries, and do so for years at a time. And it's not like they're (usually) brought in to solve the mystery, they just sort of stumble upon it. I guess it's possible the people they help throw them a bone. You'd have to be a pretty big dick not to reward the kids that saved your ice cream factory from your evil half-brother.

Also, how did they get that van to Hawaii? Or Scotland? I distinctly remember them driving the Mystery Machine through the Scottish moors.

Anyway, every Scooby Doo villain should qualify for this list. They're all apparently special effects geniuses, employing everything from animatronic suits to friggin' holographic projectors that'd make Mysterio (him too, on the list) jealous, but they're defeated by a stoner, a closeted gay, and two chicks with a serious learning disability and asperger's syndrome, respectively.

Also, the dog can't actually talk; they're all on drugs, all the time.

Are you kidding me? This is the third time I've seen you fark up a headline in recent memory. You should take a hiatus from being a submitter The English Major. Or at least stop fessing up to it.
