In this thread, we make posts about people who are better than Genki.

Include a photo if possible, a brief description/background of the person, and explain why the person you chose is better than Genki.

Start small and work your way up. Obviously, Bruce Campbell and Chuck Norris are better than Genki, but give the thread time to build. Be creative! There are millions, nay, billions of people who are and were better than Genki.

The first example is below.


----

Henry Kissinger


Background:
Henry Kissinger was a German-American diplomat who served as National Security Advisor to Presidents Nixon and Ford from 1969 to 1975.

Why Henry Kissinger is better than genki:
Kissinger was responsible for a temporary cease-fire between North and South Vietnam, and the withdrawal of US troops from Vietnam. Genki works at a gas station.

Huston Cummins Smith

Background: Huston Smith is a preeminent scholar in religious studies, and has written numerous books, including a peerless introduction to world religion.

Why he's better than Genki: Huston Smith is considered at the top of his field, known and respected by anyone who studies religion academically. Genki can barely get respect on this lame internet forum.

Background:
Spiro Agnew was the 39th Vice President of the United States serving under President Richard M. Nixon, most famous for his resignation in 1973 after he was charged with the crime of tax evasion. Just about 1030 years later re-emerged as a headless body, once again aiding Richard Nixon in his misadventures.

Why Spiro Agnew is better than Genki:
Spiro Agnew's name is an anagram of "Grow a Penis", which is something Genki was never able to do.

Kim Jong-il

Background:
Kim Jong-il is the leader of North Korea. He is the Chairman of the National Defense Commission, Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army, and General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea.

Why Kim Jong-il is better than Genki:
Kim Jong-il has better hair than Genki.

William the Conqueror

Background:
William the Conqueror was the Duke of Normandy in the early 11th century. He invaded and conquer England in 1066. He commissioned the Domesday book and greatly expanded the English infrastructure.

Why William the Conqueror is better than Genki:
William the Conqueror commanded one of the only two successful invasions across the English Channel. Genki can't even command respect in the #massassi channel.

Might as well just stop now. There's no way it's going to get better than Spiro Agnew.

Kael'thas Sunstrider


Background:

Being the last of the Sunstrider dynasty, he carried the lineage of the High Elves who were banished from the realm of their kin the Night Elves 9,000 years before Warcraft. He and Arthas were rivals for the heart of Jaina Proudmoore, a young sorceress and daughter of Admiral Proudmoore of the Alliance. He is the leader of the Blood Elves, a faction of High Elves who, out of desperation to sate their addiction for magic, now draw their powers from demonic sources after the Sunwell, long the source of elven magic, was defiled, along with the rest of Quel'Thalas, following the invasion of the Undead Scourge.

He was first introduced four months after the fall of the Second Invasion of the Burning Legion, and was leading a small group of resistance in the heart of the Scourge Plaguelands. There he met Maiev Shadowsong and Tyrande Whisperwind of the Night Elves, who were chasing after the Demon Hunter Illidan Stormrage. Kael assisted the Night Elves in thwarting Illidan's attempt to destroy Icecrown Glacier, the citadel of the Lich King Ner'zhul, with a spell that threatened the stability of Azeroth itself.

After the Night Elves departed, Kael was summoned to the ruined city of Dalaran, where the racist Human regional commander, Garithos, was leading some of the last survivors of Lordaeron. Kael and his people had long been mistreated and underused by the bigoted Garithos who saw the Blood Elves as expendable and intended to use them as meat shields against the bulk of the Undead forces in the region. Garithos's plan was a two way effort for his goal the destruction of not only the Undead Scourge but the destruction of the Blood Elves as well.

However, a group of Naga under the leadership of the sea witch Lady Vashj approached Kael in Garithos' absence and offered to help the Blood Elves in completing their mission. This action only angered Garithos when he arrived to reinforce the elves and discovered the Naga in their presence, and therefore Kael and the Blood Elves were imprisoned in Dalaran's dungeons for treason.

The night before his execution, Lady Vashj infiltrated Kael's prison, killed his guards, and released him. As they worked to free the rest of Kael's people, Vashj revealed to him that the Naga and Blood Elves, being descended from the Night Elf Highborne, shared a racial addiction to magic which her master, Illidan Stormrage, was more than happy to satisfy.

Kael then joined Illidan in Outland, the remnants of the Orcish homeworld of Draenor that was now ruled by a barbarous pit lord named Magtheridon, who reigned over many demons and the surviving Orcs of the world. Illidan intended to claim Outland as his own world, but before attempting to assault Magtheridon's citadel he needed to disable the numerous Dimensional Gates which the Pit lord relied upon for reinforcements. Kael and Vashj later aided Illidan's assault on Magtheridon's stronghold, and was able to defeat the Pit Lord with help from Draenei guerrillas under the command of the Elder Seer Akama. Before they could celebrate their victory, Kil'jaeden, an Eredar lord of the Burning Legion and Illidan's new master, appeared before Illidan and gave him one last chance to return to Azeroth and destroy Ner'zhul. Kael and Vashj both offered their services as Illidan prepared to assault Icecrown directly.

Kael followed Illidan all the way to Northrend to destroy the Frozen Throne, but Illidan was defeated in single combat by Arthas and they fled back into Outland to regroup.

Why Kael'thas Sunstrider is better than genki:

* Has supreme magical ability
* Has command over the Blood Elf Forces
* Crazy Eyebrows
* Doesn't wear weird emo glasses.

This thread was good until fatsticks posted something from Warcraft.

We're starting small, I'm pointing out that even imaginary people that don't actually exist are better than genki

Better than anything you've contributed.



Ruby Rod (Fifth Element)

Background:
Chris Tucker as Ruby Rod is the flamboyant radio talk show host from Fifth Element. Constantly screaming and yelling, this girly hair monster shows up on board the rocket bound for the cruise ship (Or planet... dunno which is which) Floatsam Paradise to report on the happenings of the vacation spot including the contest winner Corbin Dallas and the opera performance by the "Diva".

Why he's better than p<genki>s:
The hair. And the screaming. Until Genki lets loose a public wail then we have nothing to compare it to and Ruby wins by default.

Yeah man, Genki is worse than Chris Tucker hosting Unsolved Mysteries.

I like the Genk.

...don't you mean the thread about every person in the world??

]-['s hatred is his way of showing that he cares.

I love you Genki. *fluffles*

Background:

This charismatic gentleman was responsible for the reconstruction of post-war Germany, building the country up from a poverty-stricken nation being strangled to death by a weak and passive Weimar republic to a fine-tuned machine of intellectualism, industrial production and defensive strength. He, our glorious leader, successfully drove the greedy and mincing lesser races from our great Fatherland and put an end to communism forever.


Why he was better than Genki:

Hitler was a man of strong convictions and he saw them through to the end.

I have to give Jon a cookie for that one.

Bravo, bravo!

That explains a few things.

$_$

like what?

please explain

I'd say Steven, but that'd be a complete and utter lie

Even this bunny is higher then Steven in life, but then it exploded and took out steven's head

The evolution of Genki's haircut, for example. D:

Jon`C Godwin'd the thread which means that Genki is the best.

I'd contribute, but Genk owns awesome Budgies so he's better than everyone that doesn't.

Simon Belmont

Background:
Simon is the most famous of the Belmont clan, a lineage of vampire-slayers. Simon defeated Count Dracula twice, once in 1691, and once 1698. During the latter, he fought not only to defeat Dracula, but to lift a curse placed on his family during the previous encounter with the vampire.

Why Simon Belmont is better than Genki:
He wears a loincloth and still manages to look good in it. He also fills it out quite nicely. Genki has never worn a loincloth, nor could he fill it out very well.
