Why he might be annoying:

    He kept his age and real name secret from even his closest friends.
    He had a nose job, a face lift and capped teeth.
    He was a vegetarian.
    He gargled with diluted Clorox to purify himself.
    He appeared in the film 'Lipstick' (1976) portraying -- here's a real stretch -- a make-up artist.

Why he might not be annoying:

    In high school he was voted best dressed and most talented.
    Vogue fashion editor Polly Allen Mellen said, 'Way Bandy is the greatest make up artist in the world.'
    He earned $2,000 for a two hour session.
    He insisted that his death be publicly revealed as AIDS-related after getting disgusted at hearing spokespeople for Perry Ellis denying that the designer had the disease.
