This may not come as much of a shock to you, but Congress' approval ratings are at all time lows.  People are simply not happy with them.  I knew they weren't the most popular people in the world, but I had no idea how unpopular they were.  People actually like the band Nickelback more than Congress.  Really?  Please don't help validate that band's existence.  Can Congress really be that bad?

The popularity study done by Public Policy Polling found that Nickelback wasn't the only horrible thing that was more popular than Congress.  Scary, right?  Some things that are more popular than Congress include:

Head Lice
NFL Replacement Refs
Nickelback (that makes me shudder)
Cockroaches
Donald Trump (isn't that the same as the cockroaches?)
Colonoscopies (people would rather have things jammed up in....nevermind)

Not everything was more popular than Congress.  Here are a few that ended up being less popular:

Telemarketers
The Kardashians (makes sense)
The Ebola Virus
Meth Labs
Lindsay Lohan
John Edwards

Surprisingly, there was a tie for one.  Congress' popularity tied with a punch in the face.  People weren't sure which would be better.  I'm kidding, but you can read more about the study RIGHT HERE.
