Fictional characters and/or creatures most resembling Florida Governor Rick Scott

Rick Scott is the gift that keeps on giving. Besides his fraudulent past, failed policies and recent freakout about his opponent, Former Governor Charlie Crist, having a fan underneath his podium at the gubernatorial debate, we can't help it if he's just a little....funny looking.

In what sort of way, you ask? Oh just generally funny looking. Here, take a look.



What's great about Scott is that there's been a variable cottage industry of people attempting to compare him to various fictional characters and creatures. Most frequently mentioned are Lord Voldemort, Pinhead from Hellraiser, and Batboy. But every time someone brings up Rick Scott, someone inevitably comes across with a comparision that I've never heard before.

Frankly, if you ask me, I'd have to compare him to that guy from the House of the Undying from Season 2 of Game of Thrones:



But that's just me.

But we don't need to stop at modern day Rick Scott. We can go back to the salad days of Slippery Rick, decades ago. Here's one right here:



Which, don't you think, sort of looks just a little like this guy?



So have at it. List as many characters and creatures that bear a striking resemblance to my shameful, horrible governor of this otherwise great state where I live. I want to see as many names as possible.

The lyrics to the songbird's melodious trill go something like this:

Normally, I don't support mocking a person's physical appearance and/or lack of photogenics, but the guy has screwed up my state so much that frankly I don't give a damn.
