An article by io9 which lists the 24 most embarrassing and pointless D&D character classes.
A lot of these are indeed a bit pony, but some of them actually seem fine: Arctic Druid sounds pretty viable, for example, although I'd love to see a D&D party including a 14th level clown. "I gain XP by killing enemies with custard pies whilst balancing on a unicycle."
I was thinking more along the lines of the healer and hexblade classes from 3.5.
The ghetto fighter clearly can only be played by people born on a dark and warm Chicago night.

9) Fetishist.
On the plus side, though, at least Clowns aren't Fetishists. The City of Gold supplement included a whole new type of magic called Fetishism, which I can't find anything about because you know what happens when you enter "dungeons" and "fetishism" into a Google search? Nothing good, that's what. Moving on.
That was worth a chuckle.

I agree that raging about the Arctic Druid was pretty weird. "Magic Eskimo" uhm, well, yes? And arguing that the Arctic is 'devoid of nature' is pretty silly.
I couldn't read on after that. I don't really care about the opinion of a guy who think "eskimos with magic" is the height of absurdity.
