No baloon boy?
 
2009-12-17 08:36:18 AM
This list is far to short, let's just put every single person who appeared on television more than once on the list and call it a day.
Including, especially including, politicians of every party or those who wish to be politicians someday.

WHY WASN'T I ON THE LIST????

Not clicking on the link. The last thing those people need is more attention.
 
2009-12-17 08:58:11 AM
I'm happy to say I don't know who half the people on that list are. Then again, I'm not Canadian.

/We have our own idiots
//Palin would top our list, followed closely by Bachmann

Poor balloon boy was cute. It's not his fault that his parents are AW'ing assholes who are perfectly willing to use their children as props.

1. The Gosselins

I am aware that they exist. Lacking television and self-abusive curiosity I know no more.

2. David Letterman

Haven't watched him for 15 years. Don't care much one way or the other about the sex thing.

5. Kanye West

Heard the name.

6. Carrie Prejean

Generic plastic beauty queen and that's all she would have been if Perez Hilton had not made her a martyr. Swap his name for hers -- this is his fault.

So my score is six "don't knows", two "recognize the name", and two "know the short form of the story."

I give myself a "B" grade overall, "not obsessing over celebrities but probably with too much knowledge of pop culture to be really healthy."

The 6 most irritating, obnoxious, attention-whoring people Canadians and four other Americans of 2009

List fails for lack of teabaggers.

*sigh* Can't help yourself from trolling, can you? Even if you ignore the politics, how can you say that 2 Ivy League-educated people are idiots, ESPECIALLY when compared to a couple of Fundies? One of whom took 5 years and as many schools to get a bachelor's & quits 3/4 of the way through her term and the other who, among other things, asked for the the equivalent of HUAC, thinks CO2 is a harmless gas that never killed anyone (the people of Lake Nyos would like a word, Congresswoman), and suffers from delusions of re-education camps being erected throughout the country.

Disagree w/Obama & Pelosi all you like, they're not idiots. Palin & Bachmann--idiots AND unbelievably annoying due to their idiocy. They'd do better if they'd just keep their mouths shut.
 
2009-12-17 09:44:09 AM
I thought the list was over with Jon + Kate + 8.
 
2009-12-17 09:44:21 AM
From the perspective of a Canadian? Those people are so unassuming, they probably think Gandhi was a backflipping, fist pumping, Jager-bomb slamming attention swami.
 
2009-12-17 09:44:24 AM
What about this guy (new window)?
 
2009-12-17 09:44:26 AM
The complete lack of Tiger's whore squad means this list is fail.

I nominate you, based on your commenting in this thread and mentioning that you don't have a television.

/Just joshin'
//Sorta.
 
2009-12-17 09:46:37 AM
why isn't Obama on the list? He's the biggest attention whore.

That works on so many levels!

I don't care one way or the other but according to your argument wouldn't Bush be an exalted one due to his Ivy league education?
 
2009-12-17 09:48:45 AM
Came to state the blatantly obvious:

That list sucks!

To our non-Canadian friends, I give you...Grey Power Woman (new window).


She must die a slow and painful death.
 
2009-12-17 09:49:41 AM
The list is from America Jr (Canada), so it's an automatic fail.
 
2009-12-17 09:49:42 AM
Canadians are weird.
 
2009-12-17 09:49:56 AM
List fails by not including everyone above this comment.
 
2009-12-17 09:50:47 AM
that list fails to amuse like your ham fails to be bacon.
 
2009-12-17 09:50:48 AM
Man is 62 years old. Grow up, leave the young interns alone. Ick.

While I do not condone Letterman's affairs, I think this author may be the one needing to grow up. "Ewwwww that guy is as old as my dad and had sex! With a girl younger than him! Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww"
 
2009-12-17 09:50:55 AM
You know who else is an irritating, obnoxious attention whore? (new window)

Yeah, but he's a Fundie, as well, so that cancels out the Ivy League.

My Baloney Has No First Name: What about this guy (new window)?

Nice
 
2009-12-17 09:51:44 AM
The Gosselins amuse me because the husband managed to make his biatch of a wife seem like the victim in a matter of weeks when for years she belittled him on TV. I cant blame him for the divorce but he came across as a big enough douche bag to make Kate a saint. And consequently, he is fading into obscurity while she is getting the talk shows.
 
2009-12-17 09:51:47 AM
Obama is definitely needed to complete this list. I think he was on TV and magazine covers more than all the other 10 combined.

Yeah, I didn't think he really whored on that one. I mean, he got caught, he owned up to it, it was awkward, he tried to move on.
