Of all the people with whom you share a birthday, who's the biggest putz?

[Rabrrrrrr]

For me it's either Donny Osmond, for being a non-musician making money as a musician; or Emmet Kelley for being a clown, and a famous one, making even more people think that clowning is funny, interesting, or relevant, and not to mention floowing the world with his shitty clown paintings; or Clarence Birdseye, for inventing a form of food preservation that ushered in the day of massive environmental degradation so people could have food out of season from places far from their geographic locale.

Oh, and Tip O'Niel would be included, but he's an evil craptastic assinine old piece of shit, not a putz.

[Withywindle]

1. George W. Bush

I win!!

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Jesus, you could have give the others a chance to post

before playing the trump card.

[Withywindle]

11. I have no sense of timing

obviously!

[bumblebee1]

57. I second that!!!!

[deadparrot]

3. Ayn Rand. nt

[auntAgonist]

4. Howard Stern .. Rush Limbaugh... January 12th ... more......

Howard Stern .. Rush Limbaugh ...


Joe Frazier, Jack London, Kirstie Alley, Tex Ritter

[sarge43]

39. auntAgonist, we also share birthdays with

John Winthop, John Hancock, Edmund Burke, John Singer Sargent and Hermann Goering who has to get the biggest putz award.

[auntAgonist]

40. and WE share with each other too!

aA

I was born in '57

[sarge43]

46. and states too!

I hit the ground in Bay City in '43.

[auntAgonist]

49. I moved here

to Jackson area in 2000 from Canada

nice to meet ya!!

aA

[sarge43]

51. My grandpa moved to Michigan from Canada

... small world. Good to meet another Michigoose.

[Catshrink]

5. Nixon.

Still, I think that's better than my sister's bad luck -- Anna Nicole Smith.

[Zomby Woof]

6. F. Lee Bailey

Or Judy Garland. I'll go with the shyster lawyer over the dead drunken pill-poppin' floozy.

[nuxvomica]

7. Our snakes-on-a-plane ambassador to the UN, John Bolton

I don't think they come any putzier than this belligerent, incompetent blowhard.

[catzies]

8. Arnold F-ing Schwarzenegger our illustrious governor gropenfuhrer

[querelle]

9. Shannen Dougherty & David Cassidy

April 12 was not a good day for celebs...............

Q

[Dervill Crow]

26. A friend of mine saw David Cassidy in concert a couple of weeks ago.

She said it was great, but she had a crush on him a year or two or thirty-five ago.

[GOPisEvil]

10. Newt Gingrich

[CrushTheDLC]

12. George Steinbrenner and Geraldo Rivera (July 4th)

Two fucking egomaniacs whose importance in their chosen fields is greatly amplified in their own minds. Pro Baseball and television journalism would both be better off if neither had been born.

[Archae]

13. Britney Spears for me.

Oh, and Alexander Haig.

[ForrestGump]

14. Mine seem mostly cool, though Gary Busey is a tad...um...eccentric

Slim Pickens, Richard Lewis, and Fred Grandy are among the contenders, and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry sounds like he was a cool dude.

Although, actually, I was born on the other side of the International dateline from all these dudes, so in reality -- in terms of real time rather than calendar time -- I should be looking at people born the day before (including John Cusack, to whom a few people claim I bear some resemblance, as well as Pat Morita, John Elway, Kathy Bates, Richard Rodgers, Gilda Radner, and Mel Brooks) and on that day was born the rather nasty King Henry VIII of the Land of Eng.

[MorningGlow]

15. Ew--Jim Bakker and Dennis Hastert

I think I need a disinfecting shower now.

On the plus side, I share January 2 with Taye Diggs and Isaac Asimov. (We're a little thin on celeb birthdays early in January...)

[tinfoil tiaras]

16. Britney Spears's birthday is the day after mine

Does that count?

[hyphenate]

[Blue_In_AK]

18. Fran Drescher? Johnny Mathis?

Angie Dickinson? Truman Capote? I'm not sure any of them are putzes.

[tuvor]

19. Louis Pasteur.

Fucking putz.

[RevCheesehead]

20. Since (AFAIK) nobody famous shares my birthday,

I think the putz in question would be me.

[MissMillie]

21. Ahnold!

The gropenator

[Eurobabe]

29. There is this cool person named MissMillie who shares my BD

it would seem.

[MissMillie]

48. and her twin sister too!

[HughBeaumont]

22. Possibly a few, for it is tomorrow (August 21) . . .

But for the notables, the great Count Basie was born on this day in 1904. As was animation pioneer Isadore (Friz) Freleng (1905). King William IV, who presided over a reform crisis, was born in 1765. From the Sports World: Basketball great and Pimp of the Sports Century Wilton Chamberlain (1936), BYU/Bears QB Jim McMahon (1959), diminutive Indians killer Craig Counsell (1970). The SubGenius lunatic and kingpin Ivan Stang (1954), always a joy to read. Also actors, musicians and actresses - Chicken Roaster/Botox fiend/First Edition vocalist Kenny Rogers (1938), Mod Squad badass and Samuel Jackson road-paver Clarence Williams III (1939), titsy chick Barbara Ann Moore (1968), dead titsy porn star Trinity Loren (1964), gay-only-for-the-cash porn star Jeff Stryker (1962), Lassie herself Kim Catrall (1956), Journey drum GOD Steve Smith (1954), rock GOD Joe Strummer (1952, RIP) Kim Sledge of Sister Sledge (1957), Carrie Ann Moss (1967) of Matrix fame, hawt redhead actress Alicia Witt (1976) and Serj Tankian (1967) of System of a Down. More recently, singer of that retarded "Milkshake" song Kelis (1979), Rod Stewart's daughter Kimberly (1979) and blond actress Hayden Panettiere, who's exactly 20 years younger than me (1989).

Our British friends might think Princess Maggie (1930) was somewhat of a putz if not pitiable.

But three quite prominent putzes come to mind when you think of August 21 -

Steve Case (1958)- founder and Corporate dicta-twat of AOL, possibly the worst thing to happen to 1's and 0's since (c)Brain.

Amy Fisher (1974) - Paramour of ugly fat bastard Joey Buttafuco and assailant of his wife Mary Jo, now a "successful" writer, whatever that means.

Nathan Jones, whom I share an EXACT birthday with down to the year. Aussie pro wrestler, a heel for the WWE who was rumored to have lactated due to excessive steroid use (since proven false) and sucked balls in the ring. Was in the movie Troy in a blink-and-miss thing.

Speaking of Donny Osmond, maybe his grandson Dylan (2005) could qualify as a future putz? I doubt it.

[Dervill Crow]

25. Happy Birthday!

Donny Osmond is a grandfather? That is just weird.

[HughBeaumont]

38. If that's not enough -

16 days ago, Marcia Brady turned 50.

[ThingsGottaChange]

23. "Putz' Isn't quite the correct term

I think I'm running a strong second to *'s birthday.

Mine is the same as Hitler. I'm so ashamed....

[Dervill Crow]

24. Ed Wood.

Gosh, I never thought of Clarence Birdseye as a villain. You've opened my eyes.

[u4ic]

27. Gene Simmons...Billy Ray Cyrus...Regis?

I know most people wouldn't put Sean Connery in with them, but a man who thinks it's okay to hit a woman...

Ivan the Terrible is in a league of his own...

[Eurobabe]

28. AHHHHHHNOLD

Schwarzenegger.

And Tom Green. Both on July 30th.

[Guava Jelly]

30. Me

I am the biggest putz

[SKKY]

31. Without a doubt, Don King. But, the coolness of August 20 is...

...restored by H.P. Lovecraft!!! Yes!!!

[ScreamingMeemie]

32. Sandra Bernhard, I guess...

Not really a putz... more of a skank...

[MissHoneychurch]

33. Paris Hilton n/t

[NMMNG]

34. Jeff Stryker

The porn star who has a dildo modeled after his shlong.

[calico1]

35. Anita Bryant. n/t

[greendog]

36. Dr. Phil

~

[LaurenG]

37. Lyndon LaRouche, American presidental candidate (1980)

Nearly every other person was a sports star or artist (music, poetry and fine art) There are a couple of Kings and the mother of Christ to round it out.

[bigwillq]

41. Ralph Nader

Feb. 27

[datasuspect]

42. norman mailer

[Magrittes Pipe]

43. Either Osama bin Laden or Edie Brickell.

I can't decide which is worse.

[Skittles]

44. Sam Walton

[REP]

45. The 2004 Tsunami, John Walsh and/or Mao Tse Tung

I do have the same birthday as David Sedaris, though (he's older).

[Joe Fields]

47. Michael Jackson. On the other hand, George Brett also shares my

birthday, so it's a wash.

[ScreamingMeemie]

50. Ooohhhh, I will ALWAYS remember the "Pine Tar" incident.

It is emblazoned in my mind... Almost like "where were you when Kennedy died?" I was at my grandparents home watching that game. Craziness.

[mikeytherat]

52. Dennis Miller

mikey_the_rat

[Richardo]
