My Favorite Whacko

I was scanning through a wikipedia article on The Ultimates (to see when volume 3 was due since Joe Mad! is set to draw it...which means that it'll go for 6 issues in as many years before ending unfinished) and I noticed that this guy was the inspiration for Thor.

HO. LEE. CRAP.

So, I thought I'd post a link to the article and see if you people have any amusingly insane people that we can laugh at in derision.

Go!

There's this guy in my neighborhood who's like two hundred and fifty pounds of muscle, has plantinum blonde Roger Daltry hair, and is always wearing a skirt. I call him The Gladiator.

Heh. In our old neighborhood, there was an older gentleman who would spend all day walking around in the same flannel shirt, sweatpants and stocking cap. Everyday, at all hours, you'd see him either sitting on the side of the road or walking down our street. Even at, say, 2 am, he'd still be out there. At first we thought he was homeless, even though that sort of thing was unheard of in those parts, but then one day we saw him sitting on the corner eating soup. If he was homeless, where did he get the bowl and spoon?! We had all kinds of theories, from chain smoker with a nagging wife to mentally unbalanced person living in a halfway house, but we never did find out anything about him, because whenever we'd try to initiate conversation with a simple "Hi!" he'd just look at us. We finally dubbed him "Beardo Mysterio." And oddly enough, now that we've moved, I kind of miss his presence.

When I lived in Cincinnati, I worked as a manager of a Dairy Mart. We had a guy who came in regularly, and who you'd see around our part of town. He's was a bum - quite homeless, lived under an overpass.

The guy didn't talk much, but when he did, talked quite clearly. He always had money to pay for his items, and he could draw really, really, really well.

I found out later the guy is a multi-millionaire, he just shuns the trappings of wealth, and chooses to live this way. He does have some kind of mental illness, but it's not anything that makes him a danger to anyone, so his family basically leaves him to do his own thing.

Kent Hovind may be funnier if people didn't take him seriously.

I think Janice Dickinson is really fun to watch.

Grrrr Jack Thompson. Words cannot express how much I dislike the "man."
