Gush about People here.
 
Line 35:
** Ditto Idina Menzel.
*** Seconded so hard.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20131031153503/http://www.allthingsthurl.com/ Thurl Ravenscroft] had not one of, but THE greatest voice of all time. Both women AND [[Even the Guys Want Him|men]] have orgasmed at the mere sound of his richly deep yet playful bass voice. Hell, even his [[Awesome McCoolname|NAME]] is kickass!
* Mister Rogers. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXEuEUQIP3Q This] especially impressed me.
* DeForest Kelley, most famous for his portrayal of Leonard McCoy. Sure, he was in some truly ridiculous movies, but he was a kind, sensitive, gentlemanly kind of guy who loved his wife and his fans. How many people grew up to be doctors, nurses and social workers because of him? Not to mention his contribution to charity -- especially animal funds -- and to friends and fans themselves. Plus he passed up the chance to be the subject of an experimental medical treatment because he feared he was being given priority as a celebrity and thus taking away some poor person's chance to live a longer life.
Line 77:
**** Straight people, Asexual people, Transgendered people.
** Just... people.
*** [[Heartwarming Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Awwwwwww!]]
** [[South Park|CRAB PEOPLE! CRAB PEOPLE! TASTE LIKE CRAB, TALK LIKE PEOPLE!!!!]]
* God.
Line 106:
* [[Bill Bailey]] is a popular musical comedian in Britain from England's West Country and a bit of a geek to go with it too. Often launches into non-sequiters with amusing little voices using the ideas of goblins, faries and trolls as common themes within his act.
* [[Summer Glau]] is just too [[Moe|adorable]] for words, I'm not even sure she's human.
** On the subject of inhumanly adorable ''[[Firefly]]'' actresses, Jewel Staite. While her non-''[[Firefly]]'' roles are generally not quite as awesome as Summer's, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130412094836/http://www.blastr.com/author/jewel_staite/ her sheer untapped comedy genius] more than makes up for it.
* Carl Sagan. This man made modern science accessible to the public. He explained the most sophisticated scientific ideas of the day in the simplest terms he could and esposed a philosophy of universal wonderment, curiousity and appreciation. He fostered a generation of interest in space travel and understanding the exquisite complexity of the world around us. He helped me to Love the Universe. Sagan is a hero.
* Sienna Guillory. She is the only person who was spot-on in her character's interpretation in Resident Evil: Apocalypse and [[Shown Their Work|showed her work]] for playing Jill Valentine. I would personally like to thank her for it, even though her work was overshadowed by Milla's character, Alice, taking over the script.
Line 116:
* [[Neil Patrick Harris]]. He's an awesome actor, has an amazing voice, is openly gay, and all around awesome.
** Nevermind that he seems like the nicest guy on the planet. Not sure why! He's just very loveable.
* [[George Lucas]]. Yes people love to bash him nowadays. But you know what? He started out with ''[[THX 1138]]'' and ''[[American Graffiti]]''. But most importantly he made ''[[Star Wars]]''. While some might disagree what he has done to it, he still made it. He was a man with a vision that he fought to get made, which it not only did, but it became a phenomenon. Not only that, but he has made some major contributions to [[Industrial Light and Magic|special effects]] and [[Lucas ArtsLucasArts|video games]]. A true visionary and a milestone in filmmaking. He's the reason [[Tropers/Gabel|this troper]] got into it in the first place.
* Your mother. And my mother. And everybody's mother. Mothers, as a general rule of thumb, are awesome.
** Fathers are pretty great too.
Line 129:
* [[Kenneth Branagh]]. An amazing actor and an equally amazing director, who's not afraid to take 400 year old plays in a new direction, even at the cost of his street cred. Seriously, the guy does a fantastic Henry V, a ''beautiful'' Much Ado About Nothing, one of the few film adaptations of Hamlet that uses the entire text, and then he turns Love's Labours Lost into a fun 1930's-style musical! Plus, he does a mean Gilderoy Lockhart.
* How about, [[The Powerpuff Girls|Craig McCracken]] and [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|Lauren Faust]]? They are both producers of some of the more popular cartoons in this modern time. [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/popular My Little Pony Friendship is Magic] is the most popular meme right now, and is currently a subculture according to Know Your Meme.com. Not bad for a show meant to be merchandising bait aimed at girls.
* [[Aaron Sorkin]]. Extremely talented film and television writer ([[Sports Night|seriously]], [[The West Wing|if you]] [[A Few Good Men|don't know]] [[The Social Network|his work]], [[Studio 60 Onon the Sunset Strip|educate]] [[The American President|yourself]]), who's also happy to poke [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjUWs-Y0lnM fun at himself].
* Romeo Dallaire: Force Commander for the UN intervention in the Rwandan Genocide, his decisions are credited with directly saving about 32000 lives. He advocates for human rights and argued for UN intervention in Darfur; he also suffers PTSD and is an outspoken advocate for Veterans mental health, and trust me when I say that advocating for mental health issues is hard at the best of times.
* [[Darren Criss]] is not only a wonderful actor and musician, but a truly beautiful person as well. He exudes enthusiasm and passion in every single thing that he does. He has a deep and unconditional love for his fans, and will go entirely out of his way for them. He pours his heart and soul into his performances, his relationships, his work, his everything. And thanks to his role as a gay teen on Glee, he has become a role model for thousands of kids struggling with their sexuality. My favorite quote of his? "There's nothing more badass than being who you are."
Line 140:
* [[Jennifer Lawrence]]. She's just awesome in every way imaginable.
