Randy Quaid. Regardless of what he’s in, he could be playing a Wall Street banker, he always gives off that unwashed, redneck, Cousin Eddie vibe. ---

Lenny Kravitz. His music is funky, and I get the impression _he_ is funky. _5_ is still a great album, though. ---

> [@Amber\_in\_Treasury](#): > > Courtney Love. Ewww. A friend of mine saw what he thought was a crackwhore and her attorney downtown. But her appearance was much skankier than typical prostitutes in this city, who tend to look and dress reasonably normal. He was trying to reconcile why she was with what appeared to be an expensive attorney, until he realized she was Courtney Love. ---

Definitely Seth Rogen. The funny thing is I _like_ his acting and his movies, I just don’t like the way he looks. The old fashioned “Jewish comedy actor” exemplified by Woody Allen - urban, intellectual, neurotic, cerebral - has definitely been replaced by the Judd Apatow version of Jewish comedy. But I do not like this new version, as much as I hated the old one. People like Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill are not good ambassadors for “Jewish comedy.” The urban, intellectual sophisticate has been replaced by the fat, obnoxious, disheveled, pot-addled/drunken loser. Apparently this is the new “Jewish comedy.” Interestingly, Judd Apatow’s whole crew of regular actors - Rogen, Jonah Hill, James Franco, Paul Rudd and Jason Segel - are all Jewish. But ONLY the unkempt, fat, gross Rogen and Hill ever actually play explicitly Jewish characters. Franco, Rudd and Segel, who are all much better looking and more charming, play characters whose ethnic/religious identity is never brought up. ---

Slash (of Guns n Roses). Eddie Van Halen Alex Van Halen Michael Anthony Keith Richards, if you’re talking about a formaldehyde bath. ---

I’d still vote Axl, though. Slash’s hair’s a mess, but Axl just looks like he needs to be dipped in a vat of Dawn, Tide and Febreze and hung up to dry all over. ---

Something about Conan O’Brien just exudes a sense of stinkiosity. I could also picture Hillary Swank as being malodorous.
