I know this will be unpopular but I'm going to say it:

Stephen Fry

SerenityNowwwww · 01/09/2020 15:59

Not unpopular at all. I even returned an audiobook of hitchhikers guide to the universe because he was the narrator and I couldn’t bring myself to listen to him.

Disfordarkchocolate · 01/09/2020 16:04

Stephen Fry. Yes.

Self-important bore who seems to have convinced people he knew all the answers on QI.

*Stephen Fry. Yes.

Absobloodylutely. I can never understand why so many people like him and see him as intelligent or worthy of having a platform. His arguments are poorly thought out and he just talks over people - the very definition of a self important bore!

@Disfordarkchocolate

Stephen Fry. Yes.

Self-important bore who seems to have convinced people he knew all the answers on QI.

He's actually lovely when you know him and has quite a bit of empathy.
