I would like to start a poll on who would be the last living person on earth you would want to have sex with, and I need names to put in the poll. The only rules are: 1. It must be one person 2. It must be a gender you are normally attracted to 3. It must be at least a semi-public figure. You might think Auntie Grizelda is one ugly skank with a personality to match, but poll-wise that’s only gonna get one vote. ---

> [@Zeldar](#): > > The women had better have Glenn Beck! Actually, I, ah, kinda find him cute. He wouldn’t be allowed to _talk_, but I wouldn’t be _upset_ if I had to bump uglies with him. _runs and hides_ This is tough, but it would have to be someone I find both physically and mentally repulsive. But I think **Floaty Gimpy** hit it with Kim Jong Il. Murderous dictator and ugly ass man with a horrific god complex. ---

So many choices, but I’ll pick one that I think will get votes: Andy Dick I know I’m going to come up with the one perfect answer as I lie awake in bed at about 4:30 a.m., but that’s the best I can do for now. ---
