Actors:

“No friggin’ way” – My first thought was also Tom Hanks.

“Yeah, that adds up.” – Billy Bob Thornton popped into my mind.

#1 - David Hyde Pierce

She’s so wholesome!

She has the potential of flipping out.

What made me think of this is that I used to be a John Mulaney super-fan, and then he fucked over his wife and went Hollywood and I kind of lost respect for him and I kind of don’t like him now. And that sucks. So taking it to the extreme … I’d say I am whole cloth super-fan of Conan O’Brien, so if he went to the dark side like that I’d have to re-evaluate reality.

Scott Baio on the other hand …

Well, you know, Conan does talk fairly often about murdering people on his Sirius XM show. So he could fall into the “yeah, that adds up” category for me.

My “no friggin’ way” choice: Jimmy Carter

  1. George W. Bush. I don’t real agree with him politically but he always seemed like something of milquetoast to me.

  2. Randy Quaid. He has had mental issues for years…

  1. Goldie Hawn

  2. That idiot she married to seems a bit wacko…(Can’t recall his name)

  3. Usha Vance

  4. JD Vance

What’s your beef with Kurt Russel, and they never got married. They’re 72 and bee together for years.

40 years, since 1983.

That’s married enough for me.

  1. No friggin’ way: Micheal J Fox
  2. Yeah, that adds up: Charlie Sheen
