Which celebrity would reduce you to a mindless, giggling fangirl?

In my case: Joe Flanigan.

Okay. His winning a downhill skiing event and not telling anyone and not using it to fuel a PR machine has got me hooked.

Then the fact that he calls his role on Stargate Atlantis his "job" and "work."

Add to that the fact that he showed up to interview with just a daypack on his shoulder and no PA or official posse... *sighs.* I like this guy.

That questions about himself get a monosyllabic answer while if you ask him "big questions" like, oh, "tell us about the nature of science fiction" and "let's talk about global warning" he'll expound for a while -- and actually have something insightful to say.

Then on top of that, in the behind the scenes commentaries he's a naughty, flirtatious little boy.

*pats him*

*stares at a photo*

*sighs happily*

This is the real reason I won't go to conventions. ;)

Mmmmm ... ::happy place:: /TMI

I realised, thebratqueen was doing a poll/discussion about assumptions and how we 'see' people we know online, and of course, I 'see' you as Snape. Because that's your main icon! (Plus you're intelligent and don't take any bullshit.) Yup, sorry icarusancalion=Severus Snape in my head!

I thought about that one. I figure if people met me in person they'd stop taking me seriously. "But she's just this bitty thing...."

[ngaio]

I didn't know you were 'bitty'! But then I don't tend to 'see' height anyway, most times if you ask me how tall someone I work with is my response will be 'about my height' which I *know* isn't true and this carries on to online life.

My entire life people have squealed over how tiny I am, and made dolphin noises over my little hands and tiny feet. I mean, we're talking first day of school at a new school in fourth grade and getting my hands grabbed by classmates (complete strangers) and pointed out to their friends -- "Look at this!" *squeeaaal!*

These days the only women smaller than me are Asian, and I'm usually daintier than they are.

I'm drawing a blank on how I picture people on the internet. I think I imagine people look like their default icon.... *g*

Well that's a bit rude. (Like people who comment on skinny people but wouldn't say anything to a fat person./tangent)

You can buy all the cool kids clothes that comes in colours I like!

Oh dear ... maybe I should change the icon?!

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Heh. The kids clothes are, um, shaped all wrong and don't fit. *cough* For entirely different reasons. Fortunately most women's clothes come in size 2.

It's the shoes that are a problem. Women's shoes do not go down to my size and so I (and every Asian woman in the city ;) have only one or two styles to choose from. When I was helping a crossdresser (size 12 shoes!) buy clothes I may hve gone hog wild with the shoes, living vicariously.

As for the grabbing and squealing, yes, I learned at an early age to stay out of reach so people couldn't grab me like a little doll.

Icarus

I totally imagine Icarus as Snape. A very tiny, feminine Snape. Snape's Mini-Me, as it were.

Excellent! It's not just me then!
