Well, it's time for the obligatory 'make fun of the guys based completely on their picture and bio' post. Bottom line: there are at least 3 that are probably gay, which I find strange. I find it also interesting that ABC wants their shoe size.

Three All-Time Favorite Movies: It's a Wonderful Life,
Braveheart, Spaceballs
My take: borderline gay looking. Rosy cheeks and fluffy hair. Not a fan of the opera thing, that really didn't seem to work out last time.... Also, here is a youtube video of him singing, just to make your day shittier. Your'e welcome.

City
or Country: Hmm...love both!
Three All-Time Favorite Movies: American
Pie, Step Brother
My take: are there male hairstylists that aren't gay? Won't answer the city/country question = grow some balls and answer the damn question. He likes classy movies.

All-Time Favorite Movies: Hoosiers, The Notebook, Heavyweights
Favorite
Author: John Grisham
My take: You think his fav movie is really The Notebook? Also, these picture gems suggest he might be a little *light in the loafers* - you feel me?

Hollywood, FL
Height: 6'3"
Shoe Size: 13
Tattoos: Several
Favorite
Flower: Lotus
Favorite Artist: Banksy
Favorite Magazines:
Details, Men's Health, GQ, Entertainment, Travel
My take: I'm worried that he thought a sweater-hoodie was the best option for this photo shoot. Also, he is obsessed with cross fit = I'm over him already. Is he wearing lipstick? And I hate the name Carl. I am actually getting pissed off.

Favorite Magazines: Forbes, farming magazines
My take: he is actually kind of cute. I'm into small town boys. Also, when asked his worst dating fear, he said accidental diarrhea, which is awesome. Oh, and he's loaded.

All-Time Favorite Movies: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,
Rudy, Good Will Hunting
Favorite Book: My Side of the Mountain
My take: Wow. He looks like Sean Lowe's long lost gay spray tanned twin brother. And I don't mean that in a good way. It makes it 300x worse that he is short. When asked if he had any tats, he responded "You wouldn't put a bumper sticker on a Mercedes ..", Also used to be a 6th grade teacher, so for an extra $50 while doing your personal training, he will tutor your kid in pre algebra & english. Ewwwwww. *shudder* Translation = he is a douchebag.

Magazine: Sports Illustrated
Favorite Board Game: Connect

Favorite Soft drink/Juice: Apple juice
My take: he reminds me of Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. His 23 year old brother died last year, and his sister died in 2009. I'm guessing that will get brought up 300 times. I could do without the greasy hair look.

Preferred Type of Dancing: Twerking!
My take: He has that shit-eating grin on his face that makes me feel like he is a puke. Weird name. I don't know if he is *trying* to be funny with the twerking comment, but it isn't funny.
{{ What is the most romantic present you have ever given? Why?
I gave my girlfriend a card and in that card I had written a sentence about what happened that day, everyday for three months since we started dating.}} <----- font="" nbsp="">That is creepy.

Greatest Achievement to Date: M.D.
You know you've done something worthwhile if you get some letters after your name.
My take: Sounds like a conceded prick of a doctor. Typical. His hair looks like my freaking hair. He attended school at the American University of the Caribbean (is that a real place?!) He is getting old. He looks like the twerp little brother of Brad Pitt.

My take: LOL. This also looks like my hair, on a bad morning, after I haven't washed it for 2 days. He says:
{{ If you could do/have any job in the world, what would it be and why?
Mine -- it's fun, it's easy, I get to meet lots of people, I get to ski every day while working and I get summers off to travel. }}
Bartenders get the summers off? And get to ski on shift?And make enough money to travel the world? Interesting. And just to make you all a little more uncomfortable:
Who doesn't love a good pedofile 'stache?
More accurately my hair.

Favorite Actor: Paul Rudd
Greatest Achievement to
Date: Playing soccer in England and Italy
My take: another soccer player. I wonder if ABC was trying to be funny so they could make soccer player jokes? He's a big boy. He reminds me, from his pic and other bio online, of a preppy jerk from Highland/Apline when I was in high school.

Hot or Cold
Weather? Hot
My take: isn't a "Beverage Sales Manager" just a fancy title for a bartender? From Israel?? Also, he says:
{{ If you could be someone else for just a day, who would it be and why?
A random dude renting jet skis on a nice island, because he's living pretty stress-free. No worries. }}
How the hell does he know anything about jet-ski guy?? I can almost guarantee if you are renting out jet-skiis for a living, you aren't "worry free".

Greatest Achievement to Date: Playing the main stage at
Red Rocks
My take: Uh-oh. I see red flags all over the place. And that was before I read that this guy has been trying to get on the show for years and is obsessed with it and has been banned from a bunch of websites for talking dirty and vulgar in chat rooms and comment sections.
Man, looking at this, I'm kind of nervous for Andi. She's jewish, by the way.
