Turns out that I am a droidsexual. I want to marry my Droid. I know it’s only been a couple of days and you all probably think it’s too soon to jump to any conclusions, but sometimes you just know. It’s just so satisfying to wake up next to it in the morning. I’ll keep you updated on the progression of this budding relationship.While we’re on the subject of bizarre crushes, a while ago a friend of mine asked me if I had any bizarre celebrity crushes. I couldn’t really think of one at the time, but I think one is presently emerging. It’s the character Andy Dwyer on Parks and Recreation, shoe-shiner and former lead singer of the band once known as Scarecrow Boat. I don’t get it. He’s pretty sloppy and not very bright and lives in his own alternate reality. And at one point lived in a tent at the bottom of a pit. I’m pretty sure he would drive me nuts in real life. Why do I like him? Maybe the crush is really on Chris Pratt for being able to so convincingly play that character. His character Andy is all I know of him though. So who is the crush really on?
Anybody have any strange and unexpected crushes? Celebrity or Android or even a hybrid of the two?
okay - just gonna say this twice - eewww & eewww.
ReplyDeletei'm an iphone & ryan reynolds sort of guy.
Well, yeah, Ryan Reynolds is a given. Don't judge, MNJ.
ReplyDeletei'm in love with google. i'm not even sure i'm joking anymore at this point. everything i need in life (almost?) google gives me, or gives me the ability to find. which is really kind of scary. also scary is that they save hard copies of everything we all search for or do and share it with the nsa. its like everything i'm opposed to. but i just can't stop loving them. also google enables my real life sort-of realationship, so maybe i'm just projecting. and this blog is google. and the droid i will soon also get and love will be google.
ReplyDeletei <3 google. i just cant stop.
I thought my crush on a 40 year old, balding, ex-addict, bipolar musician had dissipated...until I saw him on Wednesday...with a beard.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you're projecting your real life love onto Google, or maybe you're projecting your love for Google onto your real life love?
ReplyDeleteStina, isn't this also the guy who was wearing something like a sleeveless plaid flannel shirt when you pointed him out to me?
Nope, different guy...
ReplyDeleteI think I may need to evaluate my taste in men.
I'm with MNJ.
ReplyDeleteWell if I had to choose between Ryan Reynolds and Chris Pratt, I'd definitely go for Ryan Reynolds. I guess the point of my question is whether or not you have any celebrity crushes that are bizarre (unexpected and unexplainable). Crushing on Ryan Reynolds is both expected and explainable :) Chris Pratt, not so much.
ReplyDeleteI'm OBSESSED with Penelope Cruz! I'd do anything for her.
ReplyDeleteHank Azaria when he was on Mad about you, pre- muscles. Um and another guy who I can't remember his name but he starred in Cabaret on broadway a few years ago. LOVE him.
ReplyDeleteBut, not nearly as much as Husband. But that is both expected and explainable.
Jon... I'm totally crushing on my straight friend! Im 95% sure he is straight..... but what about that 5%! Ive been having dreams about him!!!!

ReplyDeleteHmm.. Hank Azaria with muscles? (Along came Polly). So, I have found my toddler screams with laughter if you say "Droid", much like in the phone commercial. He seems to be leaning towards the iPhone though, and has almost mastered it's navigation and playing games on it. Scary.. he's just two...
ReplyDeleteLove Android!! I have a G1, and can't wait til my contract is up so I can get an even better Android phone!
ReplyDeleteI am madly in love with Alan Shore played by James Spader on Boston Legal. I'm like ready to have his babies, I don't care if he's pretend. There's just something about that character.
ReplyDeleteAnd even though your phone is cool and is teaching you to speak Chinese and drink beer at the same time, I don't think it will give you long-term satisfaction and fulfillment as a relationship with a living and breathing human would. I just want you to be happy Jon.
Alan Cumming. I finally remembered his name.
ReplyDeleteI just looked up Alan Cumming. He kind of looks like Pee Wee Herman in some pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteOh and Matt, I love your crush on Madonna. You say it was when you were 11 or 12, but I'm sure the fire still burns for her and her Gollum arms.
ReplyDeleteI loved James Spader in Boston Legal. I loved the coupling of him and William Shatner's Denny Crane.
I also love alan cumming...I might be your cyber world doppelganger, Married...except, I just date them and help them discover that they're moho. Actually, do you think alan cumming is the chicken or the egg for loving gay men?
ReplyDeleteJon, can you please NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER and I mean NEVER use the word coupling and william shatner in the same sentence, again. Thank. You.
