Hello everyone!

I have a story to share with you all, but I shall start off by saying that at work we have this display wall, and one thing on display is a garden gnome bank.

Okay, so this guy comes in, and is sort of talking to himself, but not really--he's talking but not facing anyone. he starts asking what it is, I tell him what it is. He asks where it comes from...

Me:"Ehhh, folklore?"
Him: "but where? I've been seein' those like, everywhere for like, 4 or 5 years now!"
Me: "Ehh, well, I believe the folklore was big in Germany..."
Him: "I'll have to look that up!"
Me: "Yep. Kay."
Him: "What are they called?"
Me: "Gnomes."
Him: "Yeah, gonna have to look that up! I've been seein' em' like, everywhere!"
Me: "Yeah, they're sneaky."

WTF.

Now, on with the show!




Emilia Clarke



Like many the world over, I first saw Emilia (as a blonde) in Game of Thrones. Also, like many, I was shocked to find out she wasn't naturally a blonde. At first I was on the fence, but the above photo sold me. Maybe it's her large gorgeous eyes, or her soft hair that I envy but daaaammn! Not only did she win me as a fan in her portrayal as Daenerys "Stormborn" Targaryen, but an admirer in general--she bares it all, goes through a transformation in character and is simply captivating to watch. Tamzin Merchant (Georgiana Darcy in 2005 Pride and Prejudice and Catherine Howard in The Tudors) was originally case in the role, and to be honest, nothing against her--but I don't think she would have done such a superb job.

Evanna Lynch



HEY LUNA LOVEGOOD. Okay, so she's jailbait, and I don't think of her as a sexual entity--but her beauty is so other worldly that I find it hard not to adore her. For the love of everything--she is Luna Lovegood!

Clive Standen



I first saw him in the 3rd series of BBC's Robin Hood as Archer, the half brother of Guy (Richard Armitage) and Robin (Joe Armstrong), but he won me over in his portrayal of Gawain in Camelot and became by far on of my favorite characters. He's fit, but not overly so, has gorgeous hair, and HE WILL WOO YOU WITH POETRY AND LOVE LETTERS. Fuck yeah I'm for that!

Zachary Levi



Chuck star, self proclaimed nerd and voice of Tangled's Eugene "Flynn Rider" Fitzherbert he's just--he's wonderful. He's humble, kind, has a great smile, likes to do his own stunts, adores his fan base, is a big goob and has hair I want to run my fingers through. *sigh*


THE RULES---HOW TO THROW THE BALL
1. I picked 20 female and 20 male celebrities I find attractive.
2. Everyday/other day (or so) I'll make a poll and you'll have to vote for the two women and two men you find the least attractive (and later on just one of each). The four celebrities with the most votes each round will be eliminated.
3. With each new poll I'll post the results with pretty pictures of the people who were eliminated.
4. After voting, please feel free to lobby for your favorites, whether or not they're in danger of being hit--no reason not to post the pretties. ;)
