Askmen.com are a bunch of Artards....

[No Boss]

Ok... as usual Askmen.com put out their latest list of "Top somthing of whatchamacallit." and this time it was the "Top 49 Men". Not "Men of Business", "Men of acting", or "Men of Success".... Just "Men". Why 49 and not 50? or 100? or even sparing us the headache and making it 10... is beyond me.

But When I saw this list I seriously yelled "WHAT THE FUCK, HIM?!", they put Chris Bangle (the dude that ruined BMW) at number 45. Anyway, here's the list:

49. Jeremy Piven (character actor)
48. Steve Wynn (Las Vegas magnate)
47. Alain Ducasse (French chef)
46. Martin Scorcese (Director)
45. Chris Bangle (BMW Designer)
44. Jamie Foxx (Actor)
43. Jeremy Clarkson (Columnist, talk show host)
42. Ben Affleck (Actor)
41. Anderson Copper (Newscaster)
40. Richard Li (Investor)
39. Tom Brady (Quarterback)
38. Quentin Tarantino (Director)
37. Roger Federer (Tennis player)
36. Ashton Kutcher (Alleged actor)
35. Michael Shumacher (Race car driver)
34. Pharrell (Music producer)
33. Robert Johson (BET founder)
32. David LaChappelle (Music video director)
31. Dane Cook (Comedian)
30. Alex Rodriguez (Baseball player)
29. Steve Jobs (Computer innovator)
28. Justin Timberlake (Boy band singer)
27. Bono (Singer, activist)
26. Silvio Berlusconi (Ex-Prime Minister of Italy)
25. Rupert Murdoch (FOX owner, billionaire tyrant)
24. Howard Stern (Satellite shock jock)
23. Jamie Oliver (TV chef)
22. Lebron James (Basketball star)
21. Jude Law (Actor)
20. Russell Simmons (Urban conglomerate)
19. Anthony Bourdain (Chef)
18. Lenny Kravitaz (Singer)
17. Kanye West (Singer, someone George Bush doesn't care about)
16. Donny Deustch (Chairman, author)
15. Frank Gehry (Architect)
14. Denzel Washington (Actor)
13. Tiger Woods (Golfer)
12. Jon Stewart (Comedian)
11. Clive Owen (Actor)
10. Bill Clinton (Ex-president, cigar enthusiast)
9. Jorge Perez (Real estate developer)
8. David Beckham (Soccer player, bag of antlers farker)
7. Johnny Depp (Actor)
6. Jerry Bruckheimer (Producer)
5. Tom Ford (Fashion designer)
4. Lance Armstrong (One-balled cyclist)
3. Richard Branson (Music magnate)
2. Jay-Z (Rapper)
1. George Clooney (Actor)

I agree with some of them, and am glad to see them on there...
(Jon Stewart, Davic Beckham, Richard Branson)

... but I disagree with others.
(Ben Affleck is on there, but Matt Damon isn't.
Jon Stewart is on there but Trey Parker isn't.
LeBron James is on there but Steve Nash isn't.)

I realize this list is crap, Sorry I just had to rant.

[vRS]

Jay Z 2nd? wtf....... David Beckham 8th wtf x8........

43. Jeremy Clarkson -
27. Bono - although all of U2 do pretty much the same job as Bono, maybe not to such a high extent.

[the Interceptor]

Speaking in Clarkson terms, I would shoot Chris Bangle in the face if I ever met him.

BMW seems to be selling cars despite his incapability of designing them though, so financially seen, he is quite successful *boooo though*

[NAIDANAC A]

8. David Beckham (Soccer player, bag of antlers farker)

[No Boss]

LoL.... I should note that I read the story on www.fark.com. Someone posted the list like that with the summaries, so don't go thinking they're my work.

/credit where credit is due.

[Lilleput]

3. Richard Branson (Music magnate) - That man is such a faggot, yes he had his own island when he was 20 but that does not make him less of a faaaaaag.


Also, stop the Chris Bangle bashing hes fucking brilliant!


... Bangle bashing

[Blind_Io]

I actually agree with Branson being near the top. He's done alot for philanthropy and since the x-prize has thrown his fortune behind research for renewable fuels - not just for cars but also for jet aircraft. I've seen interviews with him (He was recently on G4TV's "Attack of the Show!") and he seems like a pretty ordinary guy despite his fortune, I would not mind going to a pub with him for a beer.

As for some of these others, I don't know what AskMen was thinking, but I'm pretty sure their reasoning was affected by the lack of oxygen in their colon.

[bartboy9891]

ah Tom Ford made the list

[-Cpt. J.-]

We live in a sad world.
Theres not a single war hero in that list. Not a single police officer or fireman. Only rappers, actors and ex presidents and queers.

Top 49 Men MY ASS.

[ruuman]

Yeah it's a crap list, ASKMEN only do crap lists though.

If I produced such a list I guarantee there might be 1 actor or singer on it.

[Blind_Io]

I make no such guarantee. Hollywood types are too self absorbed in their insulated little world, they sit in luxury and try to tell hard working men and women what they are doing wrong - how to think, how to vote. They don't know what hardship is or what it's like to be a single parent working two jobs and hardly seeing your kid. They give pretty speeches, do a little fundraising work and call it a day. There are exceptions, of course, Audrey Hepburn gave up her acting career to travel the world and raise money for UNICEF full time.

[Jacobfox]

Hahaha... That list sucks.
Bangle is a crap designer, but some of his stuff is growing on me (M5, z4, etc.)

Agreed, the list needs more people who actually have made a difference, not Jay fucking Z, the world's ugliest man outside of Steven Tyler.

If you ask me, this guy should be #1:

As a father of 3, that brought tear to my eye. Jesus.

Yeah, but does THAT guy have platinum CDs to his credit? Didn't think so!

Seriously, though, that's incredibly humbling. What a great man. (And what the hell has Jay-Z done for us, anyway?)

Saw him on Oprah... no I don't follow Oprah but I was just channel flipping and when I saw someone that looked like Stephen Hawking I got stuck on that channel. Ofcourse I realized quickly it isn't Hawking but the story was so great... I just couldn't change the channel.

No I don't follow Oprah. I just don't.8)
I agree that this dedicated father would rather deserve the place of Jay Z on that stupid list... but you think he cares about anything like that? No I think out of the two men its Jay who cares about his position on a list on the internet.

He has helped his homies create the most vain and superficial generation of all times. Bling!

Bangle deserves way more respect then what you people give him. First of all he was the one who finalized the design of E46 3 series and came up with the first drawings of the X5. BMW's sales have also gone up ever since his designs started to be phased in.
