Wikipedia him, Oscar Guy, Wikipedia him!

(And Billy Graham is the LEAST irritating of that lot by far.)

Haha, this is the best entry yet, I think. I almost included him on my list, but didn't know if anyone remembered him. Perhaps the most annoying poster we ever had here.

I love the lists Sonic and BJ...although in real life, I am much more of a Pooh Bear than an Eeyore:)

While I'm not sure I like Chernabog as my choice, if it means: massive figure of evil bent on destroying the world, yet thwarted by religious hysteria, I can SORT OF see it.

Oh, Leeder has to be some misled lovelorn figure.

I intentionally left off rock suicide cases, but Curt Kobain is the only one I can think of this early in the morning.

"Monism, Atheism and the Naturalist Worldview: Perspectives from Evolutionary Biology". Wow. That’s what's great about coming here. I’ve never heard about Greg Graffin before - I’m not exactly a punk rock kind of guy (though he seems to be a very mellow rocker, as listening to samples of his music suggests) - but I was impressed with the scope and variety of his personality (that mentioned title is that of his PhD thesis), now that I’ve read about him – and all because of you. And while I’m not even remotely such an accomplished person, I must say you did a good job – body type, age group, optical shortcomings, even astrological sign are all spot on, although I’m very happy to say that when it comes to receding hair line, while being two years his senior, I’m in a far better place.

I think I would rather be Edward Quatermaine than Con Stapleton. I have a similar history as the actor, and Damien knows this.
