When I was in high school a girl told me I looked just like the guy who was Robocop in ROBOCOP 3. Not the original guy (Peter Weller); the new scab Robocop. I was like: but can't you only see his mouth? She was like: yeah, uncanny resemblance!
I used to get told Sara Gilbert and Winona Ryder with some frequency. With those two, I think it was mostly personality and dress that made the connection for people. Someone else told me I looked like Emily Watson. I'm pale, short, and ordinary, so I guess they all sort of work.
@marcee I really should. But I think I'd get some weird looks at work. I had blue hair for a while last year; need to give people time to forget that then I can give it a go.
When I was young I would occasionally get Ralph Macchio. Never really saw that. As I got older someone suggested Vinny Testaverde. That was actually a decent call I believe. And yes, that's really me. I have no shame in sharing what I look like. I'm pretty happy with myself for just having turned 45.
Up until the last few years I would get told constantly that I looked like Linda Blair. I guess once I turned 30 I finally stopped looking like a child.
@bluedyn I was always pretty amused by it. Occasionally though, strangers would stop me and tell me I looked like "that little evil girl in that movie" and I would wonder if I should feel insulted
Glen also looks like the legs of the Wicked Witch of the East...
Glen always makes me laugh. He has grown on me like bacteria.
Good to know some of our members are so cultured
@matthew I see what you did there.
Had me till the end and I had no choice but to laugh.....damn you Glen!
This is like Sesame Street....but not.
True story, This weekend a stripper told me I looked like a cross between a young Michael Douglas and Kid Rock...
People have told me that I look like a young Al Franken
and Man vs. Food's Adam Richman....
Weirdest non-celebrity doppelgänger is the model for this Think Geek Bladerunner umbrella:
I get Nick Swardson all the time.
Someone once asked me if I did Shakespeare in the Park in Saratoga. Ummm... no.
When growing up, I was called Newman from Seinfeld.
@BillLehecka - Hello, Newman.
I have been told that I look like :
Coey Haim:
Seth Rogan:
and
Ricky Martin:
I assure you, I look nothing like any of these people.
I used to get Demi Moore...
Now I get Idina Menzel...
@marcee #humblebrag
@JonT Fatter version of both. :P
@JonT @marcee is never humble in her brag.

@bluedyn I hope you wear your bangs like that.

I look like my Mom and Dad

@Kleineleh I think you just won this thread. Unless someone claims to look like Carrot Top.
@bluedyn I was always pretty amused by it. Occasionally though, strangers would stop me and tell me I looked like "that little evil girl in that movie" and I would wonder if I should feel insulted
@Kleineleh That's a lot to live up to.
@bluedyn I try my best ;)
