Incongruous Larry Site of the Month -KRS-ONE
Born Lawrence Krisna Parker, this seminal rapper and father of Boogie Down Productions has gone by many names before settling on an acronym for Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone. Perhaps because he knew better than his moms that he wasn't meant to be a Larry.

Star Wars: Episode III
What are you doing reading this blog? Shouldn't you be standing in line? What kind of geek are you?
I think now is the time to recognize the Larry of the Star Wars universe,Jabba the Hutt

Bacon Factor:2
Jabba took much of his personality from his alter-ego, voice actor Larry Ward.
Spice-smuggling and slavery were among many of the operations run from his palace on the desert planet of Tatooine. He surrounded himself with unsavory characters like Boba Fett, Bib Fortuna,and Greedo (also a Larry)as well as notorious creatures such as Gamorreans and a Rancor.
If he had not been born into a powerful crime family Jabba would be selling used landspeeders and swindling Jawas.He's bald,slovenly,depraved,gluttonous,and lascivious.It was this unsatiable taste for female flesh, despite being genderless, that was his ultimate undoing.

Larry Fine

Bacon Factor-2
One of the movies earliest exemplars of Larryness wasn’t a real Larry at all. He wasn’t even a Laurence. He was a Louis.
Louis Feinberg was a Philly Jew making his living as a violin virtuoso and lightweight boxer when approached by the pre-film incarnation of The Three Stooges including Moe and Shemp Howard and founder Ted Healy. As a Stooge, Fine’s public persona contributed to the perception of Larrys as that other guy, the middleman, the sycophant. Larry was ego to Moe’s superego and Curly’s irascible id.
In his private life he further perpetuated the myth of the lovable loser as a social butterfly with a large circle of friends, many of the sort his mother had warned him about. Fine was quick to buy into any scheme to come down the pike and was always left holding the bag.
Fine died of a stroke in 1975. He may have been a pretender to the name, but in his life and over 200 films he was a true Larry to the end.
