Why he might be annoying:

    He is relentlessly cheerful.
    He is flamboyant and effeminate.
    He talks like he’s been sucking laughing gas.
    He describes himself as ‘sassy.’
    When asked his age, he once responded: ‘Miss Channing is ageless.’
    On ‘Top 5,’ he comes off as a complete imbecile.
    His official website has many photos of semi-nude men that have nothing to do with the site content.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was one of the original VH-1 veejays.
    Tom Hanks called him ‘the godfather of cable TV.’
    As a high school student, he won a film trivia contest.
    His comedy is much raunchier than his squeaky-clean Food Network image.
    He makes a living.
