Winner of the booker prize... Annoying because no one knew, or will know who he is!

I know who he is and his book 'Life of Pi' was a fantastic book and thoroughly deserved to win the Booker Prize. Get him off the list!!!

I went to high school and university with Yann. He's not annoying at all.

Isn't he the guy that said drinking alcohol was for fools? That's annoying.

He was probably pissed or hungover when he said it though.

Another one for redemption, I reckon. How the hell can anyone be more annoying than Hucknall because he wrote a book that hardly anyone's read?

Am reluctant to go against the will of Dogbomb but this thread could be put to better uses...

Even dogbomb says no one knows who he is, surely that means he can't be annoying.

its a good book, and the fact that he is relatively anonymous means he cannot possibly be as annoying as MH.

Ive got a book of his caled `self` which is quite boring in my opinion,but even so how can he be MATMH when hardly anyone has heard of him,especially when Jon Claude Van Damn,Don Johnson and R `paedo` Kelly havent even been nominated?

For all anyone knows this guy could be dead. He's so insignificant that if if he did die it probably wouldn't even be on the news. Can we redeem him on the basis that he could have died and nobody told us?
That could work for some of the other nonentities clogging up the site as well.
