Who is the most impressive famous person alive today? Why?

Howie Long as I just like to stare at him.

Vladimir Putin.
Who else can lay the claim to simultaneously controlling the two most nuclear weapon loaded countries on the planet?

Jessica Alba, I’d like to flick her bean!

Taylor Swift. ...

Does ‘impressive’ have to be ‘good’?

Trump is the most impressive, to me, in that he has broken American badly, possibly irreparably, in just three years.

@elbanditoroso Yes, stench can be impressive! (And in the context you noted.)

Scott Adams. Love his cartoons and books.

Adam Neumann, Of WeWork fame. Oh my the saga and fleecing he has perpetuated. There will be a episode about him on American Greed. Horrible person. But the graft was spectacular.

And looking back all he did was fleece Saudi Arabia and Masayoshi Son’s Vision Fund (Softbank). Tens of billions invested. All wasted. But Neumann walked with a failed IPO and a billion.

Top notch work.

At least there was never a IPO so retail investors were largely unharmed. Totally fucked over the employees. But they had to know the house of cards was made of rice paper.

@johnpowell I remember the story on Adam and he also has a couple of complaints of sexual harassment from new hires who complained of all the shots of Tequilla she was served during her interview. He got caught up in a lawsuit that forced him to change his company policy of unlimited beer at work to just 4 beers per day. What a piece of work.
