Every Woman LOVES Leonardo DiCaprio!
Note: the following story is based upon actual events although be advised that the writer may or may not have taken descriptive liberties.
Since all of the T.V. shows we watch are in repeats right now, the hubby decided to rent a movie last night on his way home from work.
He gets to Ye Olde Blockbuster and can't decide what to rent. You see, he tends to like explosions and violence. I can appreciate some good explosions and violence, but there also has to be a plot. He's not quite so picky.
So while he's struggling to avoid renting Balboa because he knows I don't want to see it, an employee walks up to him and asks if he needs help.
He gives the story...ya know..."renting a movie for me and my wife...etc"
The guy gives him that oh so knowing look that says, "ahhh you poor guy, you have to rent something your wife wants to see...I feel for you man".
The Blockbuster guy immediately grabs 2 Leo DiCaprio movies and says, "Every woman LOVES Leonardo DiCaprio!".
Hubby raises his eyebrows and says to the guy, "you don't know my wife".
The Blockbuster guy insists that I will love the Leo movies so my hubby chuckles and says that he's just going to have to call me. So he wanders along the New Releases wall and fishes out his phone to call me, all the while the blockbuster guy is surreptitiously trailing him to eavesdrop. The guy is so sure I want to see the Leo movies and is just waiting for his moment of triumph.
So after getting me on the phone and suggesting the two movies with Leo in them, he gets pretty much the answer, "Don't they have Di-CRAP-rio in them? OH HELL NO!"
I cannot stand Leonardo DiCaprio. He just irritates the shit out of me.
Hubby starts to laugh and hangs up.
He looks over at the Blockbuster dude who is trying his hardest to look nonchalant and says, "told ya, she hates that guy".
Blockbuster dude is crestfallen.
(ok well maybe not crestfallen, but possibly a little surprised that a female of the species does not,in fact, want to see a DiCaprio film.)
Hubby picks out two other movies...one incidently that he doesn't even want to see and comes home to tell me the whole story of the DiCaprio Incident of 2007. (oh come on, everyone loves a little dramatic flair)
The moral of the story?
Not all women love Leonardo Di-CRAP-rio but apparently one Blockbuster dude has a hard-on for him.

Considering your are relating this story second hand for the most part, I have to say...well done!
All thought I don't believe you said HELL NO...I believe it was a different expletive ... something that begins with an F...
HAHA! What's a bit of poetic licence here and there :o) ?
As much as I like fair-haired, gentle-looking guys, I'd have to agree with the Di-crap-rio sentiment. I can't take him seriously, and I don't enjoy the look of him. Justin Timberlake on the other hand... (I had to repeat myself, for "hubby's" sake :o) You wouldn't want to keep the nausea to yourself, would you?
