The mere mention of his name usually makes people's skin crawl (or, alternatively, provokes ridicule), so I present to you, in honour of his birthday, a list of things for which he is responsible:
- Butterfly tattoos
- Crazy Town
- Being one half of the worst rumoured couple in history - seriously, can you even imagine him with Britney Spears?

- Woodstock '99
- Sullying the Chart top 50
- Universal hatred of backwards red New York Yankees caps
- This video, which may be the greatest thing Durst ever does:
