We did say that every major character in 'Family Guy' was going to turn up on the list eventually, and here's the star of the show! Michael Moore is loved by socialists, and hated by everyone who isn't a socialist. He's been a thorn in the side of every US President since George Bush, and isn't showing any signs of calming down as he gets older. His documentary films, including 'Bowling for Columbine,' and 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' have shone a spotlight on aspects of American life we'd rather not look at too closely.
Peter Griffin might not be a match for Moore in the cerebral stakes, but in every other way, they could be identical twins. Without wanting to be rude, both of them could use a little more time spent in the gym. We don't think it generally crosses Griffin's mind to think too hard about what the Government is doing when he's not looking, but as the many complaints about 'Family Guy' prove, he's just as capable of making people angry.

One of the cities featured in Booking.com’s travel trends for 2020, Urugay’s capital Montevideo is a stable and LGBT-friendly destination to visit in South America—a continent that’s seen dips in tourism of late thanks to political instability in travel destinations like Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. Travelers identified the city as a trending travel destination for anyone seeking an immersive, one-stop escape; according to the study, “over half (54 percent) of global travelers say they want to go on one long trip to a place that has all of their favorite activities and sights close together.” Montevideo’s offerings include beaches, nightlife, markets, theaters, culinary prowess, and festive Gay Pride Day celebrations in September.
