Most of these seem to be somewhat idiosyncratic but Steve Bannon is objectively ugly as fuck. He’s aged terribly. I mean, he looked like a smug bootlicker in his younger days, but o Earth, what changes hast thou seen… [https://twitter.com/BostonGlobe/status/802881927371845632?s=20](https://twitter.com/BostonGlobe/status/802881927371845632?s=20) ---

Ricky Gervais. He constantly looks like he’s about to shit his pants. He has that slimy smile that says **I know you know I’m funny**. If you look up the word “unctuous” in your Webster’s, you’ll see his picture. ---

Every time I see him I’m reminded of Pat Buttram. Mr. Haney the hustling con artist salesman from Green Acres. And the guy whose ugly mug I can’t stand is a real life con man. Joel Osteen. The guy’s got a face like a horse. ---

This may sound weird because by any measure she’s an attractive woman. Kristen Stewart. Her usually blank expression is bad enough but when she does manage to crack a smile or otherwise move her face she still has dead eyes. Dead eyes, black eyes like a dolls eyes. ---

I couldn’t stand Steve Irwin. It wasn’t the dopey look on his face, it was his hyper to the wall style of presentation from beginning to end and his propensity of interacting to the point of harassment with the creatures he was describing. I remember one segment in which he was describing a very poisonous snake, and he kept pulling the snake back into camera view even though it was continuously just trying to escape the harassment. I found myself wishing that the snake would just spin around and give him a bite he wouldn’t forget. When he was killed by the sting ray, I felt terrible for his family and felt very guilty about my previous animosity towards him. ---

> [@Capn\_Carl](#): > > Young, attractive, and a fine actor, but I can’t stand Timothee Chalamet. It doesn’t help that I first saw him in _Ladybird_ , where he played an overconfident moron, very well. It’s a great movie that would be even better if his character was punched in the face at the end of each scene. I’m with you on this one. He was perfectly cast in Ladybird, based on his looks. Unfortunately, he seems to be the current “It” guy in Hollywood, and is being given lead roles in many films I would otherwise be interested in. Ugh. ---

Unfortunately, he seems to be the current “It” guy in Hollywood, and is being given lead roles in many films I would otherwise be interested in. Ugh. Double ugh. He always looks like he’s in character as some boy fop, circa 1782. Which is fine; just don’t cast him as a king or a scifi super hero. Also, and this is ridiculous, but I hate his stupid name and the spelling thereof. ---
