Thanks for handling that for me in my absence. Brutus orbiting the Earth was a stretch I thought.

Brutus vs Bluto history.

Just out of curiosity, what merits the sci-fi channel?

Brutus orbiting Earth?

Chris - assaults somebody for no reason in a situation he's not even involved in
Wimpy - rather than helping someone and taking a stand against an arrogant dick, took the easy way out and refused to get involved
Brutus - showed questionable morals by offering a ride for sex, but Olive was free to refuse the deal so it's not comparable to sexual assault
Popeye - Reacted predictably

Don't know where to put Olive on this list. It depends on her own views about sex outside a committed relationship and any understanding she had with Popeye.

Brutus
Wimpy
Olive
Chris
Popeye

Brutus- Because he's extorting sex from Olive, effectively raping her.
Wimpy- Because he knows what Brutus has planned, and can stop it but does nothing.
Olive- She should have trust that Popeye (a sailor man) can get a boat to come to her. She betrays him by not trusting him.
Chris- Jumps to violence rather than trying to solve the problem peacefully.
Popeye- He should have gone to see Olive before she sold herself, or broken off the relationship before it got to that point.

Popeye
Olive
Brutus
Wimpy
Chris

Popeye's the sole reason these shenanigans even got started. Everyone else is a victim of their own weakness, exposed by Popeye's cavalier existence. Olive Oil is co-dependent and is #2 because she posed the question to the rest of them. They were just minding their own business until she came along (thanks to Popeye). Brutus, an opportunist, took advantage of Olive Oil for selfish, but natural reasons. However he nearly trades spaces with Popeye for #1 for inexplicably wanting to bone Olive. Wimpy's sort of a puss, let's be real. Inaction is the same as action, but at least he didn't get all Brutus with Olive, and only offer conditional help in the form of really garbage sex. Chris, although being named Chris (bad outside this context), beat up Popeye, who's the worst on this list, so Chris is #5 in this scenario.

Chris
Wimpy
Brutus
Olive Oyl
Popeye

is the correct order, given various reasonable assumptions about some murky variables. Chris attacks someone for no reason. Wimpy refuses to help under any circumstances. Brutus offers to help only under what we assume are unreasonable terms. Olive Oyl barely does anything wrong, but she does effectively reward Brutus' presumably unethical behaviour. Popeye does nothing wrong at all; he just chooses not to be in a relationship, which is his right, however stupid his reason.

How is the fact that this is Lord-motherfucking-British asking the question not remarked upon?

True, but considering that dogs will eat damn near anything they probably don't care either.

I'll bet Brutus has never encountered a package of Beggin Strips with so much fight left in it.
Dogs don't know it's not bacon!

Seems it was the whole reason he joined the squad was just so he could tackle Brutus... http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5596131
I guess he got his 15 minutes...

Favorite scene:

William 'Wild Bill' Wharton: [Brutus Howell hands out cold sodas to the other guards] Hey, hey, I'm gonna get some too, ain't I?
Brutus "Brutal" Howell: My ass you get some too.
Paul Edgecomb: What makes you think you deserve any?
William 'Wild Bill' Wharton: [mutters] 'Cause I got a big pecker...

When I was a boy, we'd catch a cape buffalo and put it in the basement with a starving pack of feral pigs, and then throw in my bulldog Brutus for good measure. It wasn't very impressive, Brutus would always run away.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Caesar

"... On the Ides of March (March 15; see Roman calendar) of 44 BC, a group of senators called Caesar to the forum for the purpose of reading a petition, written by the senators, asking him to hand power back to the Senate. However, the petition was a fake. Mark Antony, having vaguely learned of the plot the night before from a terrified Liberator named Servilius Casca, and fearing the worst, went to head Caesar off at the steps of the forum. However, the group of senators intercepted Caesar just as he was passing the Theatre of Pompey, and directed him to a room adjoining the east portico.

As Caesar began to read the false petition, Tillius Cimber, who had handed him the petition, pulled down Caesar's tunic. While Caesar was crying to Cimber "But that is violence!" ("Ista quidem vis est!"), the aforementioned Casca produced his dagger and made a glancing thrust at the dictator's neck. Caesar turned around quickly and caught Casca by the arm, saying in Latin "Casca, you villain, what are you doing?"[55] Casca, frightened, shouted to his brother for help in Greek ("ἀδελφέ, βοήθει!", "adelphe, boethei!"). Within moments, the entire group, including Brutus, was striking out at the dictator. Caesar attempted to get away, but, blinded by blood, he tripped and fell; the men continued stabbing him as he laid defenseless on the lower steps of the portico. According to Eutropius, around sixty or more men participated in the assassination. He was stabbed 23 times.[56] According to Suetonius, a physician later established that only one wound, the second one to his chest, had been lethal..."
