Can't help it! I know he's not real & a baldy ex Soviet cartoon character with skinny legs. But is he the male equivalent of Jessica Rabbit? Grin

YABU. Egon from Ghostbusters is clearly the hottest cartoon man around.

Or maybe Gambit from Xmen.

themidwife · 09/08/2013 16:32

Nah - too "he man" for me! I prefer weird checks out DH!

He reminds me of Dara O'Briain.

Ghostsgowoooh · 09/08/2013 17:05

Oh oh me too! I watched the first despicable me the other week and I did actually think I wad going mad.

Bunnygotwhacked · 09/08/2013 17:10

yabu and possibly blind or have the wrong film.

Thepowerof3 · 09/08/2013 17:12

Yabu and quite possibly very ill

HeadfirstForHalos · 09/08/2013 17:12

As cartoon characters go, he does have a certain "something"

He reminds me of Dara O'Briain too!

footflapper · 09/08/2013 17:15

Haha! I thought I was the only one Grin

cocolepew · 09/08/2013 17:22

YABU. A minion on the other hand.....

foxy6 · 09/08/2013 17:24

I don't think it's so much the looks that are attractive but it's he's a bad boy with a sort heart Grin Grin always gets the girls going

PuppyMonkey · 09/08/2013 17:27

When he says to little Agnes: "never grow old" it just about melts my heart.

But other than that, no he's not my type.Grin

TSSDNCOP · 09/08/2013 17:27

Back off OP, Gru is alllll miiiiiiine!!

Especially when he had his face painted. I love a man that can laugh at himself whilst stealing the moon

Catmint · 09/08/2013 17:38

Yanbu, I think he is lovely, and I know there Are more of us, cosit came up on another thread.

I warn you not to watch live Gru on Ellen, though. That was quite off putting.

Catmint · 09/08/2013 17:38

Ah, TSS, it was you I was thinking of! Grin

themidwife · 09/08/2013 17:47

Glad I'm not the only one! The soviet accent is rather arousing isn't it?!! Blush

GiddyStars · 09/08/2013 18:25

YABU. But I do say that as someone who has an ex who looks like Gru I texted him to tell him so as well

Grin
TroublesomeEx · 09/08/2013 20:24

katie you are wrong!

Peter Venkman from The Real Ghostbusters cartoon was the hottest!
And Eric from Dungeon's and Dragons.

Gru does have a certain something...

ShakeAndVac · 09/08/2013 20:27

Oh dear. The definition of knowing you really should get out more and step AWAY from the cartoon characters and films is when you start lusting over the characters.
Yes, that's you OP. and the rest of you weirdos Grin

FrankelInFoal · 09/08/2013 21:29

This picture of Dara looks just like Gru Grin

themidwife · 10/08/2013 00:28

It certainly does - LUST!!! Grin

YANBU. I am totally hot for Gru. And Megamind. And Bugs Bunny when he wears a skirt. Confused

TheMagicKeyCanFuckOff · 10/08/2013 08:38

I have a tiny weeny crush on that beeeee-naw minion Blush

TSSDNCOP · 10/08/2013 10:08

Perplexed I see your Bugs and raise you this smooth bastard

Cool.

themidwife · 10/08/2013 13:36

Yes very slinky!! Smile

I think there's something quite beguiling about Fergus, the King, in Brave but Gru, no, you're way out of line there.
