I tend to have very definite opinions about people, and I tend to have pretty substantial reasons for feeling the way I do.  For example, I love John Krasinski because he is adorable, talented, and incredibly clever whenever he is off-camera.  I cannot stand Carson Daly because he is a humorless jackass who lacks the charisma to host a late-night talk show.  That's just some rudimentary rationale for why I feel that way about those individuals, but if you probed further into my feelings I could launch into a fullscale debate on why I feel a certain way about any said person.  Except if you asked me why I felt the way I did about Shia LaBeaouf.
I absolutely adore Shia and I have no idea why. (Hey, that rhymed, though you could never tell by looking at the absurd spelling of his name.) I have never seen a movie of his nor have I seen or read an interview with him.  He apparently had a guest role on an episode of "Freaks and Geeks", which would earn major brownie points with me, but I have no recollection of this appearance so it couldn't have done anything to sway me.  I watched the episode of SNL that he hosted this season, and I found him to be quite charismatic, but I was already inexplicably a fan of his prior to that episode, so if anything it solidifed my fondness of him, but it wasn't what won me over.  I think that he is just super, and I wish I knew why.  I have no interest in seeing any of his movies and I could care less about his personal life, but something inside of me just feels so much joy whenever I catch sight of this young fellow.  I posted this awkward love note to Shia in hopes that one of my friends reading this perhaps has an insight on why I've taken such a shia-ning (apologies for that miserable pun) to the boy, or maybe even one of you share this same unsubstantiated Shia crush.  Let me know.
