The 2008 Buffalo Beast,50 most loathsome people is out.
It came out a year ago, in fact.
Isn’t this 2010? Also, well, what’s the, um, Pit? Is the OP saying he likes the list, dislikes the list or…what? I can see drive by posts but drive by OP’s are pretty freaking annoying. Of course, it IS The Gonz…

Shut up.
Sigh…never mind.

So’s the last season of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Ryan Seacrest.
Got anything more recent to tell us?
We ought to start a thread for the “Most Loathsome People of 2010”
- Sara Palin
- John McCain for putting this woman on my TV set endlessly.
WTF? Am I missing something? Some referential joke? If not, add me to the “Come back when you’ve got something current” crowd.
I think that the OP generally posts the new list each year. He probably saw this one and assumed it was for 2009, as I imagine it would be about time for that one, and posted it. Simple mistake.
ETA: Oh, and Paul…it’s Sarah. I have been on the receiving end of that mistake too many times and so I am always kind of irked to see it. 
Well, he is rather infamous around here for posting links that don’t say what he thinks they say.
I was in error. I figured it was time for the new 50 most loathsome. the Buffalo Beast has been doing it for years. I just put in the latest one I could find. It was a year old. The new one ,I am sure, is coming soon.
However, if you are not familiar with it, it is still an interesting read.
Er… wouldn’t this be a list for 2009? Palin’s not on TV much now, unless you watch Fox News, is she?
The OP specifically says “2008”. gonz, did you skip your coffee today?
Oh good, I was waiting for an outdated list written by Edgy Political Website Owner #573.
But The Gonz put SO much work into this OP, I really feel bad for him that he didn’t know it’s not 2008 any more. The OP had everything…biting commentary, pungent though well crafted language, and a surprising wit, while still cutting right to the heart of the matter and leaving the Pit-ee in a blubbering mass of humiliation and shame. Brilliant!
As usual, when he has too, The Gonz delivers the goods, showing once again why he is a valuable member of our little SD community here. Left leaning 'dopers should be proud to have one such as he firmly on your side…

Whats wrong with you? I worry about you, I really do. You are such a petty and nasty person. Let go. You can relax and enjoy life.
Being petty and nasty is more fun than being a gibbering, credulous fool like you.
So, when is the 2009 list coming out? We’re already halfway through January! Lazy Beast! :mad:
There’s the man who can speak about being both!
Let’s not be too hard on old gonzo - after all, he did learn not to try and take his pants off over his head and is potty trained and all.
You are potty-trained, aren’t you, gonzo?
Regards,
Shodan
But I DO enjoy life, and you wouldn’t believe how relaxed I am these days. As I’ve said before, it’s true I’m petty and nasty. I’m also lazy and shiftless. They were natural talents that I’ve spent years perfecting. You on the other hand were born stupid, which is no fault of your own, but you are also ignorant and, sadly, you have also spent years honing your ignorance into a club you attempt to beat fellow posters over the head with. You post an OP that is a year out of date and with basically a link and a (breathless) comment that this list is out. And? Nothing. You leave it to the reader to once again figure out just what the fuck you are on about (though I doubt most care). No explanation about the list. No comments about various people on the list. No comments at all. No follow on posts illustrating your ire at the list (I presume), only a lame as post saying you were in error (gee, there’s a shocker) and thought it was the lastest OP, not the one from 2008(even though it’s in the title of your OP, moron).
And when I comment about it, your scathing repartee is for me to ‘shut up’. :rolleyes:

Seriously, folks. Gonzomax screwed up and posted an old link. Shit happens. So he put the wrong year in the title as well…None of you has forgotten the year in January? Nobody has written “2009” on a check, etc.?
It really seems that some of you will take any opportunity to attack him, and it makes you look like a bunch of petty bullies. If this thread had been started by pretty much anyone else the replies would be incredibly different.
I am quite sure that someone, somewhere, has started a thread more worthy of your oh-so-delightful repartee. Is this really worth your time?
