The "DL faves"

Arlene Francis

Some random poster will become infatuated with a person and start a thread on them in which they are 2/3rds of the post. Then two months later when some news happens with them they will also start a thread referring to them as DL fave, while everyone else rolls their eyes.

Lizsha

Nancy Grace

Gallagher

Any man with an erect penis length 8” or more

Brendad Ickson, Joyce DeWitt, Joan Steffend, Patti Deutsch, Gayle Grinds ...

It's a complicated algorithm of baby boom/Gen X minor fame and camp value. Arrests on minor charges decades after the initial fame goes a long way toward fave status.

Tim O'Tay

I can't post both the pic and cue-up a choir of angels singing on high but imagine a melodic, angelic vocal cascade in the background for the accurate experience.

Smoking hot pastor

The 'Well I Never In All My Life' woman

Justin Trudeau

I think all stalker erotic obsessions do not count: Armie Hammer, Timothee Chalamet, Elijah Wood, Dominic Monaghan, the Disney Princes, etc.

They're not general favorites--they're just the obsessions of a few inexhaustible trolls who post over and over again.

Lens Dunham, Ezra Miller, Meredith Talusan.

Princess Alexandra, Princess Michael, Princess Charlotte and Prince George.

M and G

Bette and Joan

White gay men who DL likes: Matt Bomer, Jonathan Groff, Anderson Cooper

White gay men DL likes to hate on: NPH, Colton Haynes, Sam Smith, Andy Cohen, Russell Tovey

Randolf, Assistant to the Evening Punctuationist.

Tim Tebow , Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Hernandez

Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, Jonathan Rhys Meyers

Gio and Tommy.

Dolly Parton

Lesbia St. Claire

Stevie Nicks, Lee Pace, the woman in the car (Susan something), D-vida Rochelle, Janet Jackson, Lady Gaga, Lindsey Graham

The Outlander actor, Sam something.

Cher

Barbra Streisand.

Most acknowledged gay icons, I suppose. But the unpopular Bette Midler is an exception.

Dammit, R1 through R26. All those posts before I got a mention. I thought I told you to mention me within the first ten posts.

Betty White

Vivian Vance

I was molested.

Lizscha, Shierra Towersch

Haven't there been more Madonna threads, good and bad, than for anyone?

R3 Gallagher? GALLAGHER? I've never seen him mentioned ONCE on DL.

Has Fanny Cradock reached "fave" status yet?

Connie Francis

Lindsay Lohan is a DL fave

Rosie O

Lisa Whelchel

Joey Luft

Jaclyn Smith and her shelter cat, Bootsie Gumdrop(s).

I don’t think Judy Davis has ever been criticized on the DL

Patricia Heaton

The DL Iconic Ingenue, Cathy Zeta Jones -

Helen Lawson, bitches.

When James Garner died, no one had a bad thing to say about him

'Tippi' Hedren.

Mrs. Patsy Ramsey, formerly of Boulder, CO.

Weird how nearly all these people listed are FEmale.

1960s?

DUSTY.

The SUPREMES.

GLENDA JACKSON.

MICHELE OBAMA.

THE QUEEN.

Todd of Vaguebook.

Hi, Frankie Grande here, I own this here thread.

Mr. Hollywood

^^ Oops!

Here's the link. Classic DL.

Aaron 'Cockgobbler' Shock.

Cheryl. Mary.

Jan Hooks

Angela Lansbury

Nancy Kulp

Schaeffer/ lovey Howell

Patty Duke

Anne Bancroft

Repug Schrill Joan Rivers

Whoopi Goldberg

The Queen Mother

Eugenie Brooksbank

THE MERM/NO BORGNINE

Cloris Leachman

Good to know that Nancy Kulp is in DL good graces. It nice of you to remember her fondly.

Sachi Parker

Bea Arthur, Rue McClanahan, Betty White.

When Robert Osborne passed away, not one DLr could say something bad about him. With all his lifetime of accomplishments, that was up there with the most impressive. But then, he was a gentleman that I think no one could say anything bad about.

I think Ben Mankiewicz is excellent and has been doing a fine job on TCM but it's still sad that Osborne is gone.

R2 How DARE you call me a "random"?! I consider myself a high educator, educating DL on the fineness and extraordinary talent of Taylor and Hanson in general. If you want to rally against the value of education and intellectual distinction, count me out of that fight. I will continue in my just and noble cause.

I can't tell if r64 is the Hanson Troll or the Hanson Troll Troll.

R65 Hanson inspires such enigma.

Well, the Hanson Troll does, anyway.

Ben Barnes

The Christmas Mouse

R68 I'm in the Pro-Ben Barnes camp. And that's The Christmas Moose R69 (not to be confused with The Christmas Mouse).

R67, I just want to keep him in a well-appointed tower as my little, golden songbird who sings on cue to my heart's content, without the drama queens of DL whining about it being "inhumane" and claiming I should be tased and tagged over it. I don't think humoring that is too much to ask.

"I'm your Auntie Mame!" Rosalind Russell (And I'm at #71? Oh well, life's a banquet!)

Miss Angie Dickinson

The Duchess of Sussex is a DL fave insofar as everything she does sends DL crazy. When I heard she was pregnant, my first thought was "DL is going to crash."

Armie Hammer

The Ben Barnes Troll approves R68's message.

Off the top of my head, Patty Duke, Karen Black and Paula Prentiss all seem to be DL faves.

R73 I eagerly await the entertainment wellspring that both Twitter and DL will be when the Beiber babies start.

Jimmy Dean's Sausage

Those fabulous sitcom femmes, the Misses Bonnie Franklin and Linda Lavin.

Svetlana of Western Electric office-Christmas-party photo fame.

Matt Bomer and Simon Halls and their kids are faves.

Joan Didion for the literary crowd

Debralee Scott (RIP)

I love the Joan Didion threads.

& I'd never even heard of her when I first read them.

THEN I got the books.

The Wrigleyville Cumdump

Burnika enby crippled

Hot Congressmen

Don't forget me, boys!!! Just like Erik Estrada and Wilt Chamberlain forget me in a port-a-potty after they spit-roasted me at a Battle of the Network Stars event. And Wilt stole my panties, too.

My perfect cock

me me me!

And me.

Lovely photo, op...

Before Timothée, there was....

Joan Steffend

Sleestack, Vicky

They can objects of love or hate--they're faves in terms of favorite people to discuss: Bonnie Franklin used to be a fave, but now that she's dead, not so much; Olivia de Haviland.Lucille Ball used to be big which birthed Vivian Vance as a fave.

Just about any gay icon is a fave--Garland, Crawford, etc. even if they now are mostly ridiculed like Madonna; Then there are the trolls--the people they troll on are not always faves----Arlene Golanka, no; Joyce Bulifant, yes. Just about every second or third tier gay actor currently working, yes. Some people should be faves but haven't quite gotten there like Thelma Ritter.

Has-been Connie Francis is not a DL fave except in the eyes of her troll admirer.

Paige Davis

I think at one point a few years ago it was determined that Sigourney Weaver had no detractors on DL and was basically a queen.

Bread Pudding

Nigella Lawson

Rafa

Ronaldo (or is he love to hate on by our DL USA brethren?)

Are you kidding me, r97? Thelma Ritter is a god here, and worshipped semi-regularly.

William Levy used to be.

Jeremy Bloom until he went all corporate toad.

Rusty Joyner until he went fundie.

Hillary Clinton gets pinned with super glue to the top of the list.

I love you, R98 — truer words were never spoken!

Are we laughing with her or at her?

Mary Wickes

We are not laughing, r109. Period.

DL faves:

Garrett Clayton

Colton Haynes

Sam Heughan

Shawn Mendes

Connor Jessup

Lee Pace

Richard Armitage

Beto/Conor

Lens is not a DL fave.

She’s a DL villain.

I think "DL fave" is also used ironically to refer to the people we hate but can't stop talking about, like Lens.

It's not enough to earn her a place in this thread, r115.

Popsicle

The “MIA is Bitch” troll

Ginny from billing (may her sole rest in peace)

Petula Clark

(Champagne for) LuLu

Eric Swalwell

[quote]Ginny from billing (may her sole rest in peace)

And her crockpot Swedish meatballs, the star of many an office potluck.

THE STRAIGHT DOWN THE SHITTER TROLL!

Henry Cavill

Ben Barnes

Sam Heughan

Armie Hammer

Michelle Obama

Is Ben Barnes DL’s fave adjacent? Or is it someone else?

When did we lose Ginny in Billing??? And how did she die???

Three words: glass coffee table.

Victoria Mary Augusta Louise Olga Pauline Claudine Agnes..... but I'll graciously allow you to address me as DL Fave Queen Mary

The Evening Punctuationist

The Legendary Stevie Nicks!

Mary Tyler Moore. (In general, but particularly her role as Beth Jarrett in Ordinary People.)

And what am I, chopped liver?

George Michael.

Don't forget yours truly, the 1980s' most favorite redhead!

SJP and GAP!
