GQ Magazine has released its 25 Least Influential People list, and as you can imagine, it is the remote opposite of TIME Magazine's 100 Most Influential People issue. The most notable (and perhaps dubious) on this list is Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, though others include Olympic gold medalist Ryan Lochte and even the First Lady herself, Michelle Obama.

As far as irrelevance rankings go, there are none according to GQ, as "all zeroes are created equal." GQ claims Romney portrayed the most stereotypical Caucasian man ever, that Obama's healthy eating advice didn't go over well, and that Lochte being Lochte (jeah!) contributed to his lack of influence.

Other unlucky celebrities on this list include former child star turned TMZ headline Amanda Bynes, Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard for his trade/free agency drama, Keith Olbermann for his beef with Current TV, Lance Armstrong due to his contradicting statements about being a drug-free athlete, and actor Adam Sandler for his critically-panned films.

Ridiculous! There are 5.999 billion plus people who are less influential than anybody on that list. Once those 5.999 billion or some large number of them (us) work in concert we may, as a group, top the list.

I don't hate Obama or anyone else!
He appears to be a fine father and husband,but as President he sucks even more than Bush!

Lorenzo to Oltom 2012/12/12 03:02:14

That is an outright impossibility.

Nothing's impossible when it comes to Presidential suckitude.

Lorenzo to yaaarrr... 2012/12/13 17:17:48

No one in history could ever be worse or suck more than Bush if they set out to be the worst President ever.

reply
yaaarrr... to Lorenzo 2012/12/13 19:28:08

Bush has already been beaten by Obama in that category, and in only one term to boot.

reply
Lorenzo to yaaarrr... 2012/12/13 21:47:28

No one will ever beat Bush, he was scum at the bottom of the barrel and an embarrassment not only to America , but to all of humanity.

Well, I don't know about least influential but Michelle and her husband sure were the most influential and I am not talking about in a good way either. They are influential in a very bad destructive way. So very sad for our country. I would rather be non influential than influential in a terribly harmful way.

Paul Ryan. Mr. Barbell Head lost his own home state by 7% and is the next losing vice presidential candidate who will never be President. Poor Ryan, he really got screwed over. Turns out he was one of the takers,,,,if you know what I mean.

The voters seemed to indicate that Obama was quite influential, as he's in the White House. In addition to Ryan, I'd like to nominate about anyone on Fox News, but we know they actually have quite an influence on bigots and other boneheads.

For your information it was very close. It was all the people who wanted free stuff that voted for Obama. You'll lose in the end.

Not lost, just a temporary setback. What they think is that conservatives are going to move left, but we won't have to. The liberals will defeat themselves, just like they did 2010.

You think so? You thought you were going to win in a landslide , remember? What happened to that ? The public has wised up to your tricks and they aren't buying your crap anymore. We are going to kick your Tea Tard butts out of power in 2014 and enjoy every second of doing it. What goes around comes around ,and 2014 is your
2010.

reply
yaaarrr... to Lorenzo 2012/12/05 05:08:13

Who thought who was going to win in a landslide? I think you may have mistaken me for someone else.

Tea Tard? Oh my, I think I might cry. Nobody invited me to that party.

Well since neither of us has a crystal ball that works, I guess we'll let time tell its tale. You can go on beating your chest now.
