Cow-orkers

He’s Double Evil™, as he also attempted to reveal the identity of The Residents. But I swear he was wrong, I tell ya, wrong. Jokes on him!

Why? What’d he do?

He ruined MASH. He also is a scene-stealer (as in, he got all the best dialogue, especially when he effectively took creative control of the show).

Andrew Wakefield

A top ten for sure.

Jeffrey Epstein.

The band Starship.

You have a point there (also: Simpsons references are my one and only weakness, well that and strawberry ice cream, Simpsons references and strawberry ice cream are my two weaknesses, except for obscure Tolkien lore, ok AMONG my weaknesses… I’ll come again).

That guy who is/was burning you dog.

Nah he was funny

Nobody expects the Spinach Acquisition!

You could posssibly add the Spanish Inquisition to the list. Their weapons include fear, surprise and an almost fanatical devotion.

Slug Signiorno seems like he might have a few nemises… and salt also causes hypertension.

“Rio” by Duran Duran

The first 999,999 you watch a movie without noticing something

Benito Mussolini, because Hitler is cliched

Conchs, for being too obvious
