Who do people say you look like?
I thought this may be fun you can post a comparison pic if you want. I think we all have a well know person we look a little like or have been told we favor. If so who? Even if it is embarrassing as is mine.

People say I look like Nick Lachey, and a little like the Alex guy on Grey's Anatomy. I don't watch the show but my wife says I favor him.

3. When I was in college, 35 years ago, it was John Lennon.
I think it was superficial, mostly based on the hair and glasses, but I heard it a lot from strangers.

Eventually everyone will lose their hair. It happens. No biggie. No need to fake it by combovers or cheap toupees. I am just preparing myself now. I love shaving my head!! :) :hi:

13. a few different people...used to get Paul McCartney a lot. Lately Jay Leno occasionally.
Also used to get Dustin Hoffman a lot and occasionally Al Pacino. I never really saw myself looking at all like Leno or Pacino, but the other two I guess I could see a little.

20. I was at a conference in Florida about a dozen years ago,
and a woman there told me I looked like some New York State senator. I don't recall the name. Back in my younger days, I was at a fish market in Houston and the proprietor thought I played for the Oilers.

24. I got Peter Fonda from two state troopers at a turnpike rest stop on my way to help
with Hurricane Andrew.

I got Dennis Weaver once.

One lady said, "You like like a movie star", but never said which one.

Funny thing is they all seemed to really mean it.

And a lot of people tell me I remind them of someone they know, and a few even swearing that I was that person.

Until I told them that they were unequivocally full of crap.

his priceless (but understated) reactions always made me think those quips were something he'd heard *lots* of times before. :rofl:

72. Philip Seymour Hoffman is the only celebrity
anyone's ever come up with.

I don't even look like my relatives...though there was a brief time about 5 years ago when my brother and I looked quite a bit alike.

I guess if PSH was a bit shorter, had brown hair with a receding hairline and a red beard, maybe.
