My Friend and Tom Felton

Note: the name of my friend, for for the simple reason of privacy, will not be disclosed in this post.
 
 
This is Tom Felton.
[For all those who didn't know, he was the famous actor who played the role 'Draco Malfoy' in the feature-film series Harry Potter.]
 
Admit it. Everybody has an obsession, whether it be an obvious or a not-so-obvious one.
But, nowadays, it's extremely common to see groups of people fawning over celebrities. These celebs range from being actors to singers to I'm-Rich-'Cause-I-Did-Something-Stupid.
 
Fangirling leads to obsession and obsession leads to...
Well, what I call OID, or Obsessive Icon Dillusions.
 
My friend has unfortunately contracted this horrific disease and has been showing several symptoms, including: panicking when the topic arises, extreme hand gestures when expressing her obsession and the inability to explain why she is obsessed with the iconic actor.
 
Tom Felton, naturally as an actor, is good-looking and has an attractive presence.
But it isn't something worth fangirling over, in my opinion.
 
My friend has miiiiiiiiiiiiillions of pictures of Felton on her iPod and her Blackberry.
She shows them to people constantly, going:
OH LOOK, LOOK, LOOK, IT'S TOM FELTON!! [squeals]
 
And, quoting her, she is pretty much obsessed because, "TOM FELTON IS FREAKIN' HOT."
 
... (facepalm)
 
Well, just a little bit about my friend and Tom Felton.
