Allison Janney. Tall, great physical comedian. Goes a long way where I come from. ---

I had (have) a huge crush on John Goodman - which started way before _Roseanne_ when he was in a commercial for Crest toothpaste somewhere in the 70s or 80s. (I just tried in vain to find a video of it - but the one they had was removed from youtube). ---

That Flo chick from the Progressive commercials. I’d sure like to trick out her nametag. ---

John Goodman as well. It comes from a sex dream I had about him maybe 20 years ago. I also have like a 30 year crush on Letterman for the same reason. ---

> [@kasuo](#): > > [Zooey Deschanel](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0221046/). > > I wouldn’t kick her out of bed. The only thing that makes me say WTF about you naming Zooey is that you think it makes others say “WTF.” Perfectly reasonable crush if you ask me… ---

> [@well\_he\_s\_back](#): > > Mine is David Cook, this year’s winner of American Idol. He’s a wonderful singer, hot looking, and appears from interviews etc. to be a humble, genuinely nice person. But when people hear the “American Idol”, they give me the WTF. Sigh. Their loss, I suppose. Seconded. And I also think Shia LaBeouf is on the cusp of [unbearable hotness](http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/images/gallery/shia-labeouf-image.jpg). However, he makes my best friend want to barf. ---

I have a minor crush on “Supernanny” Jo Frost. One of my friends in college once mentioned wanting to go see Kevin Spacey’s latest movie because she just loved him. Me: Yeah, he’s a good actor. Her: And he’s HOT! \ Me: What, really? Her: Yes! Why does everyone always say that? He’s totally sexy! ---

However, he makes my best friend want to barf. I always thought Shia was pretty hot until one day my mother said that my fifteen year old brother looked like him. She meant it as a compliment for my brother, of course, but wow that killed the hotness forever for me. ---
