Title: "Hey, you kinda remind me of..."
Post by: ShadowBrain on March 16, 2008, 06:19:11 PM
Are there any people you know who resemble--slightly or strikingly--celebrities and/or other people in general? If at all possible, refrain from posting any names or pictures, as that seems to be a good way to end up on some Fox News report on cyberbullying.

Me, personally, my life's full of lookalikes:

-Girl who reminds me of Jim Davis/Garfield for some reason.
-Lesbian who makes me think of Meat Loaf.
-Two chicks that look like Whos (I wish I was kidding).
-One of my friends looks like John Lennon/Harry Potter/a crackhead.
-Both of another friends's girlfriends have reminded me of Trinity.
-The aforementioned another-friend in question often brings Hayden Christen-Anderson to mind.

I look like Kip Wells, but bat and run like Kenny Lofton and field like Jack Wilson.

One of the janitors at my school reminds me of Vin Diesel, which is awesome. It's like he's a former CIA dude who was forced to go off the grid as a janitor to hide from the government for a crime he didn't commit.

I've gotten a lot of reactions for my obscure appearance. Usually, people cannot even identify my gender correctly. Even some of my friends aren't 100% sure.

The most frequent celebrity I've been referenced to is Davey Havok, the lead singer of AFI.

I'll tell you who I look like when my look transformation pursues.

A friend I used to know looked and acted like every snotty teenage brat you ever knew. I know this because in a Half-Life sound pak mod, a sarcastic attempt at a William Shatner impersonation sounded just like him.

I used to think one of my uncles looked like Mario whenever he had his beret-like hat on. He had a moustache, his hat reminded me of Mario's cap. I told him this, and... well, I don't think he completely understood.

Thought that a mechanic looked like Santa Claus just because he had a beard. That was when I was young.

One time when driving around, I saw someone in a car who looked like Ted Nugent. Big frizzy blond hair, sunglasses.

My 4th grade teacher looks a lot like the devil... oh, no, wait, she was the devil.

No one in my life is as interesting as anyone on TV. Several people kind of remind me of Wario, but that's only because they fart and eat a lot.

With people in my life, I have a lot of friends who look like people.

My friend Esdra looks like Tay Zonday (the guy who sings Chocolate Rain)
My friend Wasko looks like Anthony Keidis [sp?] (lead singer of Red Hot Chili Peppers)
My other friend John whom I haven't seen in ages looks like [and has tattoos modeled after] Ville Valo (lead vocalist of HIM)


I probably have more, but I can't directly think of anyone.

- The other day I sat behind a guy that looked like Matt Damon
- I'm in a Facebook group about some guy who looks like the face that used to be in the top corner of the site
- The campus pastor here looks and sounds exactly like Joan Cusack. Gets really distracting sometimes
- There's another guy who I insist looks like Hugh Laurie, but no one else has ever agreed with me
- I also think Hugh Laurie looks a little like Gene Wilder, but since I don't know either of them personally, that's not relevant
- One of my profs looks a little like Tony Shaloub
- There's a guy in my church who has a huge white beard and a rotund figure. One day he wore a red shirt, and my 3-year-old sister saw him and yelled "Ho-ho!" because that's what she called Santa back then, and because he looks like Santa.

That last one reminded me of something that happened a long long time ago, when we went up to Lake George in upstate New York.

We were at some sort of theme park that was supposed to be like the North Pole with Santa's workshop, and my sister (she was only like 3 or 4) pointed out an old man wearing a red jacket claiming he was Santa, but he definitely didn't look like Santa. We have that moment on video tape and it's hilarious. XD

I did a mock trial in ninth grade and my "client" looked--and sounded--just like Matt Damon, I swear. I think he said other people had told that, too...

Oh, and the pastor at the church I used to go to reminds me of a female version of Sarumon (she's nice, though).

I cant think of anything else at the moment, seriously I sat here 5 minutes thinking.

This guy at my school, he had long, orange hair and for some reason, he reminded me of David Bowie. :|

Some people think I look like either Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter), Topher Grace or Rowan Atkinson.

My father tells me that I seem my grandpa, my mama tells me I look like Uma Turman (sorryyy...I don't now how to write her name! ^^''') and my grandma tells me I'm the "girly version" of Super Mario.... XD

Then my grandpa looked like Totò (an old Italian good actor) and a friend of mine look EXACTLY like.... BORAT (that strange man from that stupid movie)! XDDD I always call him Borat because he is luckily patient!

I love Borat.

At first I thought I'd hate that movie, but a lot of the scenes made me fall out of my chair laughing when I saw it with my mother.

Mmm...

Firstly, it's Thurman, with an h. Juts thought I'd point that out.

Secondly, you have be American or at least born in America to understand the whole point of Borat. At least, that's what I've come to observe.

Yeah, I was born in America, so Borat cracked me up.

I remind people of Cameron from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

When I was a bit younger, I reminded people of Zach from School of Rock.

As a baby I reminded people of all sorts of things.

My friends can't seem to decide whether I remind them of the aforementioned Cameron Frye, or of Cole Sear from The Sixth Sense. o_O

Nice comparison with the potatoes btw.

I believe I have been compared to Harry Potter, McLovin, and, when I used to wear a gray Nintendo hoodie, the Unabomber.

My dad was mistaken for Ted Bundy once... by Ted Bundy's mother... a week or so after he died (I'm serious--he used to live in the Sea-Tac area).

I've been compared to several anime characters before.
I forget which ones, though.

"You look like that one guy from that anime... you know, the one with the spiky hair and the big eyes who battles people? That one. You look like him. Or her."

Heheheheh. As much as I would like to agree with this sort of overview, I can only think of one character  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nabari_no_%C5%8C_characters#Banten_village)off the top of my head that fits last mutter. And his hair isn't even that spiky (maybe that's why).

Rao was trying to compare me with all sorts of celebrities a while back, and I hardly agreed with any of them. Apparently there are some "clones" of myself wandering the US, but I have yet to see a single one.

There was a girl in my school last year who would draw a lightning bolt on her forehead.
