A place for fan-girliness, (and fan-boyliness, if you want to!) and also to discuss his other roles.

The Day Player short on YouTube that set us all swooning.

The trailer for A New Wave, which will probably never be released, but has lots of long-haired, swearing John in it.

And, because I love it, his Flat Stanley photo.

ETA: I was a very, very bad thread starter, and forgot to credit OldSchoolDool with the title of this thread.

Another thread with a title that will make me giggle every time. I've never been prone to fangirlyness, but I will admit I have a bit of a crush on John. Such a cutie that is funny and witty to boot? That's a combination against which I have no defense.

Woo-hoo, new thread!! I love the power of The Forum...since I posted the Day Play interview, its number of views have gone up by about 1800. Spread the love!!! Share it with someone you care about (unless it would make them jealous.)

I'm tall enough that there would be little climbing required- suck on that! [/Pam] However, I am happy to squeal along with everyone else.

And as long as we're linking adorable videos for the start of this thread, I have to include one of my favorites, John and Rainn on Ellen. Because there is dancing (not swaying). Dancing, people.

ETA that ironically, John also tells a rabid fan-story in that clip.

Okay, this is pathetic. I've been sitting here for 15 minutes, trying to think of something to post in this thread. But everything I think of basically amounts to "OMG, JK is so dreamy! *swoony fangirl squeal!*"

So I'm just going to link to this picture, only because I'm pretty sure it was what inspired the initial "climb him like a tree" discussion.

Yes, and adorably dorky dancing at that! Seriously, John doing that jumping-while-holding-your-ankle-behind-your-back (yeah, you can see how up on dance moves I am) move is hilarious, I think because he's so lanky (mmm... LankyJohn) and has such long legs that it looks more awkward than when I've seen other people do it.

Not that I don't love watching him dance, because it is completely cute. That whole interview is beyond adorable; John's such a good storyteller. His expressions when he's telling that fan story are hilarious, especially him re-enacting how she must tell the story.

I would totally pet his face if I ever met him.

Okay, that's a lie, I'd be way too shy to actually do it. But I'd want to.

...And that's why John should be very thankful that I'll never get to meet him.

...And I think it's time for me to go to bed. I'm a bit punch-drunk with giddiness at having a JK thread, and I should stop before I embarass myself further. ;-)

Long-time lurker, first-time poster, coming out of lurking to say that when I saw that climb-him-like-a-tree picture (just now, for the first time ever) I my mouth actually dropped open and I actually said, "Hot damn."

Yep. Love him. Love the thread. Love the title.


Back to lurking...

Love the title! I am very happy that there is now an entire thread devoted to JK. He is so cute, sweet, witty, smart,...*swoon*

The Day Player clip is so awesome. His accent and swearing just made him even more irresistable.

I want to let people in on another fansite, for those who have never seen it, because it is a must-see for JK fans:

OldSchoolDool, when you said that in the other thread (I think it might have been in response to me even! Yay.) I wanted to tell you how much I loved it but as a years-long lurker and only recent poster I'm always afraid of breaking some TWoP rule and going too far off-topic. But now I guess I can, seeing as it's the thread title and all. ;-)

Oh, to be entirely on topic: I love when John does that quick little lip-lick. He just kind of darts his tongue out really fast. Like during the 27 seconds and also when he's about to fake-cry in Drug Testing. Oh wait, now am I on-topic for the Jim thread and off-topic for the John thread? I'm terrible at this.

Oh Amzey, thank you for mentioning that. [whisper]I did a couple of screencaps of the Ellen interview, and I got one cap of that moment, and every time I look at it I'm all, ooooh John tongue. And then I feel all pervy.[/whisper]

Heh, I'll post it when I go home for lunch.

He also does it in Boys and Girls, just after Pam says she's fine with her choices. He does the lip-lick, then says "You are?"

I had my first JK dream last night...hope it's the first of many ;)

I laughed out loud when I logged on today and saw this topic. Kudos, ladies.


Well screw him! I've found my people! Hello fellow crazy girls and hopefully a few crazy guys!


WORD.

*sigh*, yet another thread for me to be obsessed with. Btw, that trailer for "A New Wave" is incredible. His long hair is inexplicably amazing. And Pixel brought it up in another thread, but the way he says "I know" after Andrew Keegan (haha, Andrew Keegan. I liked him when I was 12) says "this is written in screenplay format" for some reason makes me uncontrollably fangirly. It's TOO weird. I can't stop watching it. I find it very uncharacteristically Jim, I guess. Just a new look maybe? And I think he says some form of "fuck" at least 5 times ("you were my fucking ticket out of this shithole" or something? *goosebumps*) lol...I'm so weird.

I'm creeping myself out. I'll go now. Thanks for the topic. Now I have somewhere to direct my John energy (Johnergy?).

As promised, JK tongue.
Also, the hilarious expression he makes when he tells Mr. T to "just be yourself!"
And this one's adorable, because it's like he's looking right at me!

Does anyone know if John's first Leno interview is available online anywhere? Not the one with the lawn dart story, the one where I think he tells a story about drag racing.

Thank god for this thread! JK reduces me to something similar to my first high school crush; blushing, giggling, doodeling on notebooks, etc. Here is the perfect place to say that I really appreciate John's fashion sense. Any man who is unafraid to wear pink on national television (or at all) automatically scores with me! That Ellen screencap: *swooon*

Delurking to humiliate myself by admitting that I capped that clip and left it as a comment on everyone I know's myspace following text that said something to the effect of "insertnamehere" wanting to get in his pants.....

So.Embarasssed.

If you go to Office Tally and click the Video link on the sidebar, they have almost all the interviews posted via MySpace (you don't have to be a MySpace member). I know that interview is there because I watched myself on Monday.

Thanks for the link CookieChica, I hadn't seen that interview. My Leno hate got the best of me at the time it aired.

Hahaha that's my favourite part of the interview, along with the dancing (I used to hate when people did that ankle-grab, knee-pump thing, but he did it so WELL *swoon*), and when he says "oaawwkay, I don't see how that was appropriate" when he's telling the story about the girl putting her fingers in his mouth.

I wish my fingers were in his mouth.

*cough* what? who? leaving...

Thanks, CookieChica! I just rewatched John's first Leno interview (killing time until the marathon starts in a few minutes). It's a great interview, him telling that car story is hilarious. "And... that's my basketball story." And when he puts on that strong Boston accent? Very hot.

I also watched his Carson Daly interview for the first time. Jeez, he's a horrible interviewer. People hate on Leno a lot, but I think Carson's way worse. Kept interrupting and stepping all over John's stories. But it was awww-inducing when John was talking about knowing that Jenna would get the Pam role.

I think to us fangirls, it's like every thing John does becomes innately seductive and somehow sexual. I'd probably have to fan myself now, watching him tie his shoes in Basketball. But then again, he is wearing shorts, and his naked legs lead to thoughts of naked John..... what? I blacked out for a second there.

It's so funny, because that same picture that inspired the "climb him like a tree" comment, when I saw it, I thought the same thing, and then was embarrassed and thought better of posting it. I'm so glad someone did! Now we can all be as open as we want about our JK innermost thoughts, :) No, it IS a good thing! lol.

I'm also glad we have this thread because as much as we have some cool guys on this thread, I could tell a lot of people were getting a little tired of us going on and on about John on the Jim Halpert thread. So now hopefully we can gush away on here! :)
