Has anyone had embarrassing crushes on cartoon/movie characters as a child/young teenager?
As a child, I had a massive thing for Jafar from Disney's Aladdin, lol. The Jafar fantasy carried on for quite a while when I was a teenager. My friends take the piss out of me for it, and I don't blame them! I also had a thing for Hades from Hercules. No accounting for taste!
As an older teenager, I developed a vampire obsession, and had a thing for Lestat from 'Queen of the Damned' and Gary Oldman as Dracula... oh dear haha
What are yours?
Anyway I should stop procrastinating on here and get on with my college work...
Emma Peel - the thinking man's totty! Smart, capable, independent, Ooh yes.
Even I can see why men like Emma Peel! She had Steed under control alright didn't she
I'm not sure I agree with 'under control' - I think it was mutual respect for each other's capabilities and knowing they could count on each other when things got tough.
Plastic said:He was playing the perfect British gentleman
Which is ?
haha! They are just being argumentative.
Everyone says I have a reputation but they don't explain why...
Gracious yes! Who would it be... We don't want your reputation sullied by hanging around with a disreputable wench like me
Let us now promenade in the orchard, Mr Plastic!
Only if we have a reliable chaperone.
It sounds restrictive but I'd like that. Imagine knowing what to do on every occasion and what to talk about. I think people rebelled against it but we would like it wouldn't we.
Let us now promenade in the orchard, Mr Plastic! lol.
Yes! There were proper etiquette books and proper training - it was all very formal and prescribed - heaven!
Yes, they have a book that we don't get!! Grr.
Probably why I like Victorian history, because there were lots of rules about how to manage social events!
