Thom Yorke is a persistent abdomen exposer. It's really quite endearing.

There's more recent ones, too, but I can't be arsed to dig through 40,000 fan sites to find them right now.
Do wonder how much of Ryan Gosling's appeal is down to *his* persistent abdomen exposing. Watching fan dialogue about him, it's not even the abdomen but those ~lines~ that extend from hip to groin. Which seem to drive many women (OK, Jezebel commenters and ladies in my tweetstream) into a froth of sexual excitation.

Um, have you taken a look at where you ~are~? This is ILX. We have 400 post threads about whether to put 1 or 2 spaces after a fullstop. And you think questioning the pervasive and all-surrounding depictions of one of human beings' most fundamental activities is *overthinking*?
RMDE!

It's not but I guess this thread has a standing history of being mostly pictures and people often get up in arms when it gets too wordy. More pics, less talk was the sort of arrangement we had previously. There are tons of other threads where this sort of thing can and should be discussed.

ps - Gosling is overrated in the attractiveness dept imo. I just don't really get the appeal.

TY does look really weird there. It's over photoshopped, right?
FT I wasn't trying to be mean or bitchy before. I just wanted you to know why ppl might be giving you a hard time. A little talk is fine but the big discussions stuff is generally better elsewhere, I think?

I think he's one of those people who looks better in action than still pics but I love Michael Pitt even tho in most real life pics he looks pretty gross and sort of like he smells. He's pretty beautiful imo.
― ᶘ ᵒᴥᵒᶅ (~curious orange~), Friday, 16 December 2011 12:37 (twelve years ago) link
ahhh huge sorry
He looks weird because they've photoshopped out all the things that make him look distinctive - his freckles, his ptosis, his sticky out ears, his lizard cheekbones. I think he looks so much better like this (apart from the bad hair)
http://www.radiox.ru/pics/r/tomx/ty063.jpg
But then again, I think that *this* woman is so beautiful and amazing looking and sexy *because* of her freckles, and ppl were being nasty about them upthread (makes me feel self conscious TBH)

I have no idea how that Michael Pitt dude is, but he is ~pretty~ - then again, I don't have a problem with dudes looking like they smell, as we all know.

That woman's freckles are amazing.
The first thing I remember seeing Pitt in was Hedwig and the Angry Inch but he's been in a bunch of movies and is one of the main people on Boardwalk Empire.

It can be and the pic FT posted is hottt but he's lefit shown up to some premiers in disgusting stained t shirts looking like he really hasn't showered in months. I think he may have had some errr problems for a time. It was an unhealthy sort of gross look not a hot one.

Quick GIS shows him to be alright in a smarmy blow dried Nu Labour kind of way, but he's no Chuka Umunna that's for sure.
― Thomosexual II (Fotherington Thomas), Friday, 16 December 2011 13:29 (twelve years ago) link
that "weird" picture of Thom is from a series of photos, including the other radiohead dudes, where they were all obscenely photoshopped in the glossy fashion mag style.
by the way, i'm in the camp that's cool with thom yorke (and anyone else) getting posted, just not 5 trillion times. it's not like there's a hard limit but come on

Dear Z S, while you're here, please can you photoshop my RMDE poster into an animated GIF where all the members of RMDE are, literally, rolling their eyes and KMT-ing?
I will curtail my Thom Yorke enthusiasm on this thread to no more than 1 Thom per day if you do this for me, and that's a promise.

I just watched Your Highness, which wasn't very good, but I thought the actress playing the love interest of the protagonists' brother was pretty hot:

Sadly it was only a supporting role, while the lead female role was by Natalie Portman, who I don't really find attractive at all.
