The Resume

    (July 29, 1968- )
    Born in Long Beach, California
    Best known as the kid who sang and hawked jumbo hamburgers in the '70s for Jack in the Box
    His catch phrase was 'It's too big to eat!'
    Former host of Los Angeles SmartTalk 870 AM KRLA's 'The Rodney Allen Rippy Show'
    Acted in 'Blazing Saddles (1974),' 'Oh, God! Book II (1980),' 'Checking the Gate (2003)' and 'Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star (2003)'
    Founder of R.A.R. ENTERTAINMENT, a digital video production company and RIPPED MARKETING GROUP, an advertising and promotions company

Why he might be annoying:

    People often mistake his last name as 'Ripley.'
    In 1973 you couldn't turn on the TV and NOT hear him singing his smarmy Jack in the Box song.
    He also shilled for Nehi Soda, King Vitamin Cereal, Chevrolet and Granola Bar, but most folks (thankfully) don't remember.
    His role as 5-year-old Bart (Cleavon Little as a child) in 'Blazing Saddles' went uncredited.
    His website is loaded with ads.
    He portrayed himself in the 2005 TV movie 'VH1 News Presents: Michael Jackson's Secret Childhood' (ewww).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He earned a business B.A. from California State University, Dominguez Hills.
    His occasional stand-up performances at the Comedy Store in Los Angeles are well received.
    He proved he could act as an adult and guest appeared in three episodes of Parker Lewis Can't Lose (1990-92).
    Unlike child stars gone bad, he has many projects going as well as two business ownerships.
    His hobbies are classic cars and billiards.
    He is a spokesman for Hurricane Housing Relief.
