Am I Annoying or Not?I realize that the whole 'Am I X or Not' is so 1999, but this is actually pretty entertaining. The amount of research is astounding if you consider the massive index that they maintain. As a side note, Jack Osbourne is sitting at 100% annoying.

The Dell 'tard is the most annoying according to the academy.

sorry if this causes a rift in your personal space-time continuum, but hot or not didn't start until late 2000...

while i'm here, don't follow this link!

And I hope to be made the Minister for Pointless Vulgarity, with Special Responsibility for Bombing The Baldwins and Cheese.

stwc: hee hee... the baldwins...

actually, my sister got to know alec baldwin during the filming of the edge in canmore, alberta. she told me he was nothing but polite and down-to-earth, he ended up inviting her to the party at the end of the shoot.

and when she met anthony hopkins, he said to her: "call me tony."

oh, and in keeping with the thread, anthony hopkins is not annoying.

Pardon a little off-topicking. I'm sure Canada is solely annoying to U.S. citizens. The rest of the world very probably admires and likes it enormously. Canada may be a lot of things - boring, slow, oversensitive - (though not to me) but I can't fathom how people could find it annoying. It's charming, clean, friendly and equitable.

To be an annoying country you have to be pushy, full of yourself, persistent and predictable(say France, Israel, Japan and, yes, the U.S. - all countries I love, btw).

I don't know any American who sincerely finds Canada annoying. That's what makes "finding Canada annoying" a comic act. It's like the Monty Python sketch where people are being attacked by the gang of grannies.

You gave us hockey. We can forgive anything for that. And Canadians are the nicest people ever. I think you guys rocks. Not to mention your tv commercials...I love 'em.

bwg: In keeping with the thread, is your sister hot or not?

Mr. Baldwin was a d*ck to a colleague of mine, but then again, she looks like Steve Buscemi in drag.

Special Responsibility for Bombing The Baldwins and Cheese.

So is that Bombing Cheese as well as the Baldwins, or does the Cheese stand alone?

I think this says it all, no?

This seems a little sad. She ranked at #26, Most Annoying.

i'm not in a position to judge whether my sister is hot or not. in fact, that question is annoying. *cough*

Ah, memories. This is a fun collection.

So is this one. It makes me feel better to see that I'm not the only one really annoyed by Carson Daly.

Not to mention Star Jones, the most useless celeb to come along in quite some time.

Why is Blair more annoying than Thatcher? He's annoying and everything, but he hasn't said "We are a Grandmother" yet.
