You have to ask yourself, is it worth the trouble?
Published by Sid June 19th, 2007 in beefcake, entertainment, Celebrity. Tags: No Tags.I mean, I want to see Transformers, but do I want to pay actual money to see it?
And given the alternative to paying money, is it worth it? What, exactly, qualifies as a test drive? Can I sit on it, tool around the parking lot, and then say, “Oh, this was great but suddenly I’m feeling very ‘fat guy in a little coat.’ Can I have my ticket now, please?”
And speaking of Transformers…XYs.
Last week, Girlhattan, the crickets and Nettie professed unlikely lurve along with me for a barely post-adolescent LaBeouf. Fine, y’all don’t see it yet. Fair enough. My question to you: who’s your unlikely celebrity crush? Please to explain.
Obviously, I already started, but I’ll add a couple more for good measure:
Bill Nighy
Danny Sunjata
Oh wait, that second isn’t unlikely at all. Huh. Consider it a beefcake freebie.
Tangential: Am I the only one who finds Tyrese to be unattractive and irritating? (Well, not exactly unattractive, but somewhat unappealing. It takes more than a bald head and a nice body to tickle my fancy. Not much more, but more. And leave it to me to find the one photo in which I find him attractive to illustrate the fact that I find him unattractive.)
AND speaking of tickled fancies, what code word do you use for your ladyparts? Someone I met this weekend says she calls it her “fancy,” and no, I don’t recall how the subject of her fancy came up. Sorry.
That’s a lot of questions. Suggested reply format, to make it easy on you:
1. Neil Diamond. “September Morn” makes me moist.
2. Yes, as a muhfuggah, including the Coke commercials.
3. The Cloisters
1. no transformers will not be worth the money–not even for cheezed-out entertainment value. i know it will just end up pissing me off because i LURVED the transformers as a kid.
2. Still haven’t a clue who this young’en is, but my unlikely crush has to go to the Weasley Twins–snarky behavior and red hair, hot diggity! And Sam Elliott…I have such a cast of the old-man lusties for Sam Elliott
3. I just call them my girly bits…but when I’m actually tickling the fancy–it’s double clicking the mouse (thank you American Pie girl).
There…nothing like TMI in the a.m.
Of course you want to see Transformers! I will drag you to the 12 am show, I will be totally drunk and filled with mirth, obnoxious nerd lore about Transformers, because I’ve got TONS.
I think Tyrese’s face looks like it’s about to implode. Do. Not. Want.
I suppose Peter Sarsgaard is a weird crush, and David Tennant. I did a whole post on weird crushes(inspired by you!) a couple of years ago http://enjoyandexciting.blogspot.com/2005/04/another-sid-gacked-meme.html
Many of those crushes still remain. Including the robot one.
I don’t refer to my own lady parts much, but I suppose I’d just call mine The Cooch. I’m pretty crude at time.
Sorry I ignored the suggested replay format
1. willem dafoe. i can’t help it. ‘platoon’ caught me at a vulnerable moment. christopher walken - again, it was the doomed sensitivity in ‘dead zone’ that totally got me. and don’t even get me started on stanley tucci and ben kingsley.
2. too right. his eyes are too squinty and is it me, or does his mouth look like it could swallow his whole head?
3. hm. cooterville. girly parts. vagina dentata.
1. I concur on Ben Kingsley and Stanley Tucci! Those are what you call MEN. Plus, Stanley Tucci’s body is sick for a man his age. I’ll throw in Forest Whitaker, too.
2. Yuck to Tyrese. His whole being annoys me.
3. Puss-puss
Shia is so cute. In five years, he is going to be hot! Then we’ll really be dirty old ladies.
I’ve been reading this blog for a minute but somehow, it was seeing that someone else doesn’t find Tyrese attractive that finally prompted me to leave a comment, how about that?
Anyways,
1. Al Pacino. Lupe Fiasco. ?uestlove. Jack White. Michael Imperioli.
2. I don’t find Tyrese attractive at all. And he can’t sing. And he can NOT act. My friends think I’m nuts.
3. I don’t reference my own, er, anatomy all that much so I just say “vagina.” I’m not into naming body parts.
1. A lotta people think I’m nuts for loving Robert Downey Jr. Those eyes! The smarts! Most of my hotties are widely regarded as hotties, though. Maybe Mr. Garcia, the computer guy from my kid’s school? Trust me on him!
2. Tyrese? Completely off my white-chick radar. I do think Taye Diggs has become overrated, though. Morris Chestnut, much better.
3. I picked up “bits” and “cooter” from the blogosphere and enjoy the words greatly.
Michelle: Soon. SOON YOU WILL ALL KNOW THE NAME OF LABEOUF! Especially if you go to see Transformers with us. Come on. It’ll be dark in the theater, your shame well hidden. And those Weasleys are legal! and not natural redheads, for which I am deducting half a star. Boooooo!
K: Oh yeah, we have to see it. I want it in IMAX, but the only one is Navy Pier. WTF is up with that? Those aren’t too crazy crushes. I’m perplexed over Frylock, but I never watch the show. Heh.
Ding: Willem Dafoe makes my head explode. I am strangely drawn to him, and yet, EEW, WILLEM DAFOE. I just go round in circles like that for hours. Okay, seconds. But Ben and Stanley? Good call. Cooterville? HAHAHAHA! Awesome.
S: Puss-puss? You don’t have actual cats, do you? Because that would be interesting, hee! But yeah, going back to stanley tucci…thinking about it, he IS pretty hot. Hm. Now I have to add him to the list.
D: Hey, glad you share the Tyresitis. That’s one hell of a list. I like it. One of the things I love about non-traditional crushes is what the say about what you value. You seem to value an anti-authoritative streak and experimental/boundary pushing artistry. At least, that’s what I got.
Orange: I get it, I do. It would just be great if stopped with the drugs, already. He’s been clean a few years now, yeah? Also, is Mr. Garcia single? Because people keep telling me I should go into teaching…
Tyrese should be off everyone’s radar! Yuck. Just…yuck.
Bits and cooters and coochies, oh my. I prefer kitten, but honestly, I thought “my fancy” was hilarious. It makes me think of doilies and teapots, for some reason.
1. i have dozens of embarrassing an unlikely crushes, but here are some i’ll share:
ken watanabe (actually maybe not embarrassing?)
chazz palminteri
noah taylor
rupert grint (!!!)
gomez addams
2. i interviewed tyrese a few times. unfortunately. he was dumb, arrogant, misogynistic and egotistical. i channel my lust for that type toward beckford instead.
3. georgia o’keefe?
kthxbye
