It's really generous of you to accept "Lama" for the Dalai Lama, but just so you know, that's just the least-exotic part of a two-word title. It's sorta like looking for the answer "President Rutherford B. Hayes" and accepting "president".

Not really. There are tons of presidents. How many lamas are there?

Also tons. It means a spiritual leader or teacher.

True, but its still the case that 99,9% of people who type Lama mean the current Dalai Lama, its a uniquely known title. Not the case with King etc

I clicked on this quiz thinking it said "bad people," so I was very surprised to see the Dalai Lama as the first answer.

If I was bald I would buff and shine my head so it glistened in the sun.

I have my own, picture based version of this quiz if anyone wants to give it a try: https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/156455/famous-bald-people. I did not know this was already a featured quiz.

"Overpopulation crisis" should be in quotes as a fitting tribute to the recently departed Paul Ehrlich.

Thanos must have read "The Population Bomb".

Unfortunately, Ehrlich is up there with Thomas Midgley Jr. as people who were just trying to help but ended up doing untold damage.

Rarely has a prediction ever been as wrong, and had such disastrous consequences as Ehrlich's.

Don't let Midgely Jr. off the hook so easily. Lead was known to be dangerous for centuries and Midgely was aware of the danger of exposure to TEL. He gave himself lead poisoning in his demonstration designed to fool people into thinking it wasn't dangerous! He underestimated how much exposure people would ultimately have, but he certainly couldn't claim to have thought it wasn't dangerous. He just thought that no one would be exposed to enough of it for it to matter... or at least, for anyone to be able to trace the harm back to TEL.

Don't let Ehrlich off the hook either! He had globally foolish ideas that grew into globally fatal problems. Like Midgely, he doubled down on the disastrous Population Bomb ideals when he ventured into the Bet with Julian Simon. Imagine the level of ego and stupidity it must take to be utterly wrong in two arenas! And I am sure that he carried those idiotic ideas to his grave.

Midgley gave us TEL and CFCs. I'm not letting Ehrlich off the hook, but he only messed up once.

I don't know how you can go around claiming that some unknown named "Michael Jordan" is somehow the greatest Chicago Bull of all time, when everyone knows the legendary Matt Steigenga played a huge 12 minutes across 2 games for the Bulls in 1997 and scored a massive 3 points, leading them to the title that season!

Charlie Brown wasn't bald. That was just an artistic convention for a close '50s/'60s haircut.

Yeah, this is one of my most obscure pet peeves, that Charlie Brown is often referred to as bald, and even portrayed as such in many adaptations. His father was a barber, and he's supposed to have blond hair cut in a very close-cropped buzz cut. That squiggle on his forehead isn't a single freakish strand of hair, but the little puff that's left longer in the front.
