Now that we're nearly done with 2012, it's time for the media to sum up the year in an endless series of "best of" lists and photo collections. While many have made great contributions to our world this year, GQ has taken it upon themselves to name a group of people "so uninspiring that we should round them all up and stick them on an iceberg."

Though GQ says they've avoided ranking this group in any particular order -- "because all zeros are created equal" -- Mitt Romney is listed at No. 1 with the observance, "Voting for Romney is like hooking up with the last single person at the bar at 4 a.m."

Also listed? Michelle Obama at No. 7, for failing to prevent Americans from being fat. Amanda Bynes sits at No. 2 for failing to be "as fascinating a train wreck as [Lindsay] Lohan and "The Newsroom's" Aaron Sorkin comes in at No. 18, for writing a show that feels "like someone is force-reading you the Huffington Post."

Check out the whole list over at GQ.com.
