I'm trying to get a definitive list of all the members for an art contest submission,
Mickey Dolenz
Matt Drudge
Bob Saget
Mathew (from Fluxblog), who has managed to get a wireless connection going
Movie Boy
Jeff Garland
(and a continuous loop of Family Guy playing on a welded shut vcr)
I think I'm missing someone, plus i don't know what Mathew looks like.
Also didn't Bonny lower a rope ladder down at one point?
-
I tried nominating Olive Garden as the official restaurant of the hate pit, but I don't know if Tom has seen it yet.
What's better than a bunch of people Tom doesn't like stewing in the hate pit for all eternity? A bunch of people Tom doesn't like eating unlimited iceburg lettuce with vinegar in the hate pit for all eternity.
;D
-
Is Kevin Smith down there? I don't remember if he's been officially nominated.
-
T.I.
-
Kanye West is dancing above the Hate Pit on a clear piece of plexi-glass. Just to taunt Matthew, I believe.
-
How has Little Steven, the recipient of so much Best Show ire, managed to avoid this shameful fate?
-
Who is Jeff Garland?
-
He means Jeff Garlin, who is in there for this:

-
Jeff Garlin is a stand-up comedian. His most notable credit is "Curb Your Enthusiasm" where he plays Jeff Greene, Larry David's manager. He was also in the ultra mega smash hit Daddy Day Care and popped up in a few episodes of "Arrested Development."
I was actually shocked to hear Tom throw him in the hate pit so quickly a few weeks back. I guess when you make a movie about cheese, you're asking for Tom to throw you in the hate pit.
-
I was all ready to defend Garlin in a non-apologist way, but then I saw the clip from the Cheese movie. Indefensible.
-
I got the feeling that Jeff Garlin was in the wrong place at the wrong time and was suddenly cast into the pit for some perceived slight against Kanye West.
-

FWD of the Month for 8/8/06 - 9/6/06, but not a Hate Pit resident.

You know how it is: You're talking to Paul F. Tompkins on your radio show and you get caught up in the moment and before you know it you've thrown Jeff Garlin into the Hate Pit.
-
Mystery? Criss Angel? Ira Glass?
-
Edward Boo-urns
Brett Ratner
Chris Klein
Dane Cook
Zachary Braffstead Esquire
That American Apparel Guy
That Abercrombie and Fitch Guy (http://www.queerty.com/queer/Mike%20Jeffries-thumb.jpg)!!! (his face hurts me)
Todd Solondz
Basically everyone in Smokin' Aces
-
is terry richardson in the hate pit?
-
So the Official Hate Pit Survey as of 10/28/07 stands with the following residents;
Mickey Dolenz
Matt Drudge
Bob Saget
Jeff Garlin
Movie Boy
Mathew of Fluxblog
Rapper, T.I.
with a continuous loop of Family Guy episodes to pass the time.

Update:

Is he really the first member in three years?

I recall Roger Moore and Olivia Munn going in.
It has been a while though. I have to admit getting a tingle when I realised Tom was going to have the lever pulled.
-
I'm guessing Kanye West is no longer dancing on a scaffold above the hate pit, but is now dangling precariously over it by his hands.
-
Kevin Polla[c]k -- oh THAT guy
During the last Best Show, my brain was gassy and I mentally mistook Kevin Pollack for NEAL Pollack, wondering "well how did Neal become a game show host recently?"
Never mind! [/Emily Latella]
-
Olivia munn definitely went into the hate pit at some point
-

In recent developments, it's almost unbelievable how bad she is on The Daily Show. Just terrible.
-
I was under the impression Roger Moore was in the hate pit for standing up Alan Partridge.

Hm ... I was thinking it was for dissing the one of the last couple of James Bond incarnations as too violent. Judo chop.

Judo chop.
still funnay
-
no one's mentioned so far:
The Complete Miami Heat Roster
hate pit just got crowded!
-
also, chris christie
-
I believe Tom threw Jerry Seinfeld in the pit around the same time as Jeff Garlin.
-
So who is officially in the Hate Pit now?
Thanks for the help!
Tom.

Wasn't it the complete Miami Heat Roster but without LeBron, being that he'll get needy and climb down to join his "teammates"

I think that was more like "maybe this should happen" but never actually confirmed. I could be wrong though, I was spaced out while listening to that episode.

scharpling's inferno!!!

The Hate Pit welcomes its newest resident: Nick Di Paolo.
-
The newest resident of the Hate Pit is a caller: Harry from Millburn. He tried to have Gawker.com thrown in, but was hoisted on his own petard.
-
That Gawker article is really garbage, though. I mean I know it's not worth worrying about because it seems like insights from people who think of themselves as cultured but really are not.
Maybe I'm bitter because I think Ohio will crack the top 5. No one can make fun of my state but me!

Your state is so lousy. It's not even a funny joke. It's just a terrible state.
-
And both Brian Wilsons too. I would have thought Tony Asher was equally culpable for the Pet Sounds instrumentals not having lyrics.
-
Jeff Garlin got in my own personal Hate Pit for his crumminess and rudeness towards Christopher Mintz-Plasse of all people on Doug Loves Movies. A pathological attention hog.
Is Nick Di Palo officially in the pit? What's the specific charge? There's a variety of reasons for him to be pitted.
-
I listened to this week's show but managed to miss the rationale for why the Brian Wilson of the World Champion San Francisco Giants was thrown into the hate pit. My fair-weather fandom demands answers!
-
I admit I'm a little uncomfortable with the rough justice of consigning Brian Wilson (the cleanshaven one) to the Hate Pit until he coughs up Pleasure Island. There's something Kafkaesque about his predicament here--how is he supposed to create music while the Family Guy theme is blaring in his ears (er, ear) 24/7?
-

You're right that he was an attention hog, but he was at least kinda funny. Kevin Pollak on the other hand has made it to my hate pit (and hopefully Tom's too eventually) by being an attention hog on DLM (and life).
Everything he touches loses any semblance of joy or humour and it bothers me a little that he's trying to worm his way into the alternative comedy scene.
-
I mostly find Jeff Garlin funny too. I love Curb. I even liked some of the cheese movie, but something about his DLM rubbed me the wrong way.
Cannot agree more about Kevin Pollack. Never funny. The fedora doesn't subtract from the baldness but it adds to the hackiness. Unfortunately for him, William Shatner and Christopher Walken have turned into self-parody making him redundant.
-
Eddie Vedder? Let's make it official.

Yes, let's do. I can't stand that guy either...
-
Is U2 Hate Pit worthy? Even if not I was glad to hear that Tom can't stand them.

"I like mediocre music. U2?"

I hope so. The problem is that Bono's ego might actually fill up the hate pit resulting in having to kick some members out...
-
I wanna see Gibby in there.
-
I really think perennial good guy Ted Leo ought to be considered for that surprising song he wrote about President Obama, saying he wants to "sweep the walls of the excrement of these baboons..."
Ted Leo: RACIST
(That song's new, right??)
-

Gibby should get a free pass because those Butthole Surfers records were one of the best things about the '80s.

should read "one of the best things about growing up in the '80s"

Yup. I like him on Curb Your Enthusiasm but he's cholesterol-breathed, loudmouthed oaf when he guests on other shows. He also talked over everybody during a live WTF awhile back. What a clod.

You're so right. All of their albums from "Rembrandt Pussyhorse" through the "Widowermaker!" e.p. are great. I even kinda liked "Independent Worm Saloon". As far as sell-outs go it's not that bad... "PIOUGHD" is total garbage...

All I know about the BHS I saw on Beavis & Butt-head. That goes for a whole bunch of bands.

Locust Abortion Technician is particularly wonderful. "22 Going On 23" is one of my favorite songs of the 80s, especially when it launches into that warped Hendrix-y (Hendrixian?) solo at the end.

The Hate Pit opens it's maw to receive its newest resident: Howie Mandel.

There will finally be a place for residents of the Hate Pit to print their 'zines: Kinko's has been relocated to the Hate Pit.
