Friday Fight: Who Is Your Celebrity Valentine?

Even though Lindsay and Gabe are friends, they very rarely agree on anything. Every day, they have a fight about something. On Fridays, we publish one.

[NOTE: this week's fight includes one blurry NSFW image.]

gabe: who is your celebrity valentine?
lindsay: Usually it's Paul Rudd, but this year I'm shaking things up
lindsay: I can't decide between Jon Hamm and Jason Segel
gabe: you've got such a triple-track mind
gabe: it's always paul rudd, jon hamm, and jason segel with you
lindsay: (trying to think of a jason segel's penis joke)
gabe: i'm sure paul rudd is going to be so crushed by this news
lindsay: He's had many years to step up.
gabe: yeah, his silence on the matter of your love for him is weird
gabe:

lindsay: But he's always been like "We're not like those other couples, we don't have to celebrate valentine's day to prove we love each other."
lindsay: "Every day is valentine's day for us, Lindsay"
lindsay: - Paul Rudd
lindsay: (every year)
gabe:
gabe: that was sad
lindsay: hahaha
gabe: that was twilight-vlog-caliber sad
gabe: you're like "come over here, my dozen cats"
gabe: "now which of you is going to be paul rudd this year"
lindsay: YAWN.
gabe: aw
gabe: i'm just kidding
gabe: i know that you don't have any cats
lindsay: because the county won't give me a cat license?
lindsay: is that going to be your joke?
gabe: hahahhahaha
gabe: you got me?
gabe: i'm always making those county licensing board jokes
gabe: it's getting so predictable
lindsay: WHO IS YOUR VALENTINE?
gabe: the smoke monster from lost

gabe: i just like to feel safe
lindsay: Nah, it's Gwyneth
gabe: ew
lindsay: you only hit her because you like her so much
lindsay: but you don't have words, only fists
gabe: i used to
gabe: i used to like her
gabe: she used to be our leighton meister
gabe: or something?
gabe: but now look at her
gabe: i loathe her
gabe: your celebrity valentine is andy milonakis
lindsay: well, until last year we did live on the same street
gabe: you date him, and you have babies with him
lindsay: (I moved on up)
lindsay: um, something terrible about genetic testing.
gabe: as opposed to something kind and generous and thoughtful about genetic testing?
gabe: when you look at pictures of andy milonakis
lindsay: exactly
lindsay: um
gabe: you sigh
lindsay: I do not do that
lindsay: YOU do that
gabe: and you're like "the one who got away"
lindsay: you are doing that right now
gabe: no way, dude
gabe: that's like my main rule
gabe: people who don't even know me
gabe: are like that guy NEVER looks at pictures of andy milonakis
gabe: it's my thing, i'm famous for it
gabe: unlike you
gabe: who is famous for having andy milonakis's babies
lindsay: Can we please pick a less easy target here?
gabe: than you?
gabe: no, that is fair
lindsay: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
gabe: i'm surprised you didn't pick alec baldwin

gabe: since he's one of the four people
lindsay: He doesn't drink.
lindsay: And he holds grudges.
gabe: that you obsess about to the point of it being troublesome
lindsay: I could say the same thing about you and so many people!
gabe: i'm glad to see that alcohol consumption and anger management are carefully weighted in your nonsense valentine schoolgirl crush analysis
gabe: god forbid
gabe: you get imaginary stuck
lindsay: it's mainly the grudges
gabe: with someone
gabe: who doesn't drink
gabe: what a bore!
gabe: what a make believe problem that would never be!
lindsay: anyway, at least my celebrity valentine was naked in a movie.
gabe: why imaginarily buy the cow when you can rent the Forgetting Sarah Marshall dvd from netflix is what you're saying

lindsay: EW
lindsay: no!
lindsay: gross
lindsay: 1. I OWN FSM
lindsay: (duh)
lindsay: 2. That is not how girls work and that movie does not turn anyone on.
gabe: hahahhahahha
gabe: oh man, i am so confused
gabe: i thought that the stupid scene in forgetting sarah marshall
gabe: was like porn for girls
gabe: and that they were super turned on by it and just wanted the rest of the movie
gabe: to hurry up and be done with
gabe: so they could have sex because of how excited they were
gabe: thank you dr. ruth
lindsay: Well this is why your celebrity valentine has to be an inanimate monster composed of or associated with smoke.
gabe: why?
gabe: analyze this
lindsay: Because you don't understand women
gabe: true
gabe: i do not understand women
gabe: i'm probably like the first guy
lindsay: when Gwyneth googles herself
gabe: who's had that problem
lindsay: she's like "if only Gabe could just MEET ME"

gabe: i'm sorry
gabe: my mind is still reeling from the incredible revelation
gabe: that girls aren't turned on
gabe: by Forgetting Sarah Marshall
lindsay: You know
lindsay: I think you need to tell us a real celebrity
lindsay: who is your valentine
lindsay: I have opened up and shared.
lindsay: and it's time for you to share.
gabe: i can do it
gabe: i can be vulnerable
lindsay: This is a safe place
lindsay: it's not your fault
lindsay: it's not your fault
lindsay: it's not your fault.
gabe: I AM ENOUGH!
gabe: my celebrity valentine
gabe: if the smoke monster from lost already had a date
gabe: would probably be rachel bilson

lindsay: Oohhhhh, you LOVE her, Gabe and Rachel sittin in a tree, Gabe loves Rachel Bilson!
lindsay: You love her!
gabe: basically
lindsay: I'm telling everyone
gabe: CORRECTION: i'm telling everyone
lindsay: No, I'm on the phone
lindsay: calling everyone
lindsay: and telling them
gabe: haha
lindsay: and typing at the same time
gabe: "come here, cats"
gabe: "i have some very interesting gossip"
gabe: the thing about rachel bilson is that she hasn't been famous enough to be obviously horrible yet
lindsay: I think Rachel Bilson is, um, maybe over?
gabe: perfect
gabe: also, she is not over
gabe: ever heard of a little movie called JUMPER?
gabe: she JUMPED into my heart
lindsay: oh I just looked on IMDB
lindsay: she has a movie coming out called Waiting For Forever
lindsay: which is funny because that's what you're doing
lindsay: with her
lindsay: only it's the sequel
lindsay: Waiting For Never
gabe: i am not waiting
gabe: that is ridiculous
gabe: she has three more years
gabe: to make something happen
gabe: and then i'm DONE
lindsay: SYNOPSIS:
lindsay: A Hollywood-set romantic tale of a guy who is content to live his life without a job yet with the love of his life, a young actress
gabe: i wrote myself a check for being done with rachel bilson and post-dated it for my 52nd birthday
lindsay: it is DESTINY.
gabe: and i'm going to cash that check

Gabe! Stop being mean to Lindsay! Although the Smoke Monster from Lost is pretty hot.

Gabe, you're that old? Anyway, now I think of you more like George Clooney and less like Chace Crawford in levels of hotness.

It was a joke.

I wasn't sure if sarcmeow was joking or not, maybe so?

Anyway, Gabe should continue increasing his age until we find the upper limit that will induce a "Wow, I didn't realize you were that old!" comment.

My celebrity valentine this year is Wes Anderson. We're going to put on some Troggs and Cat Stevens B-sides and slow-[motion]-dance until he strips me down to my pastel-colored slip. Then we will gaze intently and wistfully into one another's eyes while our Hungarian violinist and the stuffed boar head look on.

Don't forget the part about him whispering sweet non sequiturs in your ear.

Waiting for Forever (W8N44VR) looks intriguing not because of anyone who is not Richard Jenkins, but because of Richard Jenkins. JENKINS! Let the oscar recognition thru defeat begin!

Jason Segel gives me hope because I too am a husky male with decent looks and a good sense of humor.

would being with the smoke monster count as an interracial relationship?

Umm, forget interracial, it might even be interspecies!

Whatever the relationship would be, I think anyone who saw Lost this week can agree that the smoke monster would be one rough lover. :(
