Who's more famous. Keep in mind, you're not guessing who's more famous in the actual "Your mom knows who they are" sense of the word...I think this is basically googlefight. I became convinced when Chuck Norris became a strong contender, and Angelina Jolie beat out Marylin Monroe.
Also--never pick Billy Zane.

Unless he's against Maria Bello.
ETA: I think Tom Cruise trumps everyone.
I refuse to be part of a world where Jennifer Garner is more famous than Orson Welles and Ashley Olsen is better-known than Peter Falk. You'll find me in the third cave on the left.
The stupid ad on that page is covering up most of the person on the left. I still got 21 in a row, though.
Since when is Lucy Liu more famous than Rita Hayworth?
I'm one cave down from psammead.
To be honest, I'm not that surprised Orson Welles isn't that strong on the fame scale. Even in his time he wasn't a matinee idol, and people like Charlton Heston had to fight to even get him in movies. Has last credit was as a planet-eating robot head.
I'm surprised at Lucy Lui's prominence, as I understood it she was kind of washed up. Also, I'm usually surprised by Lisa Edelstein doing so well, unless people are confusing her with Rena Sofer and Melina Kanakaredes.
The Gallery of Regrettable Food. My personal favourite -
beef porcupinesSome of the the clothes are, if possible,
even more terrifyingPlus, the site also contains the earliest known example of
internet porn (totally work-safe)
I think this is the most horrible thing I've ever seen. This is from the Cooking with Dr Pepper part of the Regrettable Food site.
This is gold.

Who knew that Transformers were democrats?
From Lileks's site,
this is the one that had me laughing so hard I cried when I first found it.

That's how I felt when I found his book, and simply had to buy it. Now I show it to guests as a gauge of their sense of humour. Like it? Yeah, we'll get along just fine.
That site is brilliant. Emaciated Hollywood starlets should print out some of those pictures and stare at them whenever they feel a craving for anything more than a lettuce leaf garnished with diet pills.
I love the Banana section.
Disgusting food,
sex offenders and
offensively racist imagery. What's not to like?
