ok, after another day of being called Silent Bob 5 or 6 times i thought of starting this thread!
i constantly get called Silent Bob, or Kevin Smith, (or, lord knows why, when in a tux i got Russel Crow, eek). i guess buying a big green coat only served to "make things worse".

anyway, who do people tell you you look like?
or, ever been mistaken for someone famous? had anyone ask for your autograph?

"The son from My Family" - who now features in those slightly weird BT adverts where he cohabits with some middle aged woman and her kids...

That was before I piled on the pounds :oops:

by **EckoZero** » Jun 28th, '06, 22:09

Yes, I have once.
Well. Several times.

Larry knows who I mean...

Other than that there's the occasional reference to Ozzy Osbourne and Jack Osbourne (wtf???) but that's about it...

I actually get recognised around my Town for being me now lol

i am on my lunch break and i get a load of people who i dont know ask if I am that guy who does magic

Well, in your case Larry I can kinda see where people are coming from.
And Ecko Zero also, with the person who mustn't be mentioned.

But the only person I have ever been compared to I can see absolutely positively noooooooo resemblence to whatsoever. Kiera Knightly. :shock:

Maybe if I had my boobs, hips, and face removed...then yes...but wtf?

Well one of our TMers, I can't remember which! :oops:

he looks lots like Aragorn from Lord of the Rings in his Avatar!

er i was for a while told i resembled and older and wiser harry potter!

As in what the imagined character looks like? Or as in, what the actor Daniel Radcliffe looks like? If it's the latter, you should probably stay indoors on film/book release days!

by **leighton** » Jun 30th, '06, 09:53

I used to get told I looked like either Phill Mitchel or Phill Collins !!!
I can't see it my self
