Who do you resemble?

[Aetera]

I've had people tell me that I look a lot like Clara Bow. We have a really similar facial structure. Most people aren't very familiar with actresses from the 20's, though, so I don't imagine that means very much to many of you. xD

 

[Megacherv]

A guy called Canada from some manga, anime, things, I'm not sure.

If someone could clarify for me, that'd be great

EDIT: Also, jokingly we said that I'm gonna end up looking like Joven from Magic the Gathering

 

[Dragonpit]

The jock from Left 4 Dead 2. Talk about a fail.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

People say, on a regular basis, that I look like

Spoiler: Josh Farro

I'm actually glad some people say I look like these two.

Spoiler: the hip!

WHY!!! I don't look like anyone, and you people get to look like atttractive and famous people. Curse my bland and unappealing features, Curse The-*dramatic extension of vowel sound*-m!

EDIT: Also, Jared can grow a freaking awesome beard, of which I am insanely jealous right now!

OT: Yeah, I don't look like anyone (or I've never been told I look like anyone, though my friends, in all their infinite bastard-ness, said I make them think of Sheldon from Big bang Theory (mentally, not physically).

dont worry! some day youll find someone you resemble! and yes it is a sweeer beard :}

 

[Boba Frag]

Christopher Eccleston. For those who don't know, the Ninth Doctor.

As he would doubtless say.... Fantastic!

Apparently I've got Ben Barnes' hair, but Viggo Mortensen's stubble

I prefer, as someone who likes their self esteem, to view it as they resemble me.

They're just celebrities, guys. People.

Well, if there is someone you know who has soul-less brown eyes, then I look like them some-what first thing in the morning (honestly, it is the only thing about myself that really stands out, my soul-less morning eyes, apart from that I have boring hair, boring facial-shape, boring facial hair (i.e. none), boring eyes (plain brown))

Actually ... do you know any celebrities that are painfully plain?

Michael Cera?

 

[sogortheogre]

I was told that I look like a younger, beardless George R.R. Martin

 

[badgersprite]

When I was a little younger, people told me I look like the girl who plays Luna Lovegood. My hair's not as long and blonde as it used to be, though, so I think the resemblance is gone.

 

[ctaylor35]

The only person Ive been told I resemble is Opie from Sons of Anrchy which I think is Ryan Hurst.

But I'm positive its only because I wear a toque like his have a beard and an athletic build. without the beard I look like Macaulay Culkin in home alone I'm so babyfaced (hence the beard)

 

[Biosophilogical]

-snipped quotes-Michael Cera?

Ouch, I'm glad I don't look like that (squarer face, bigger smile/teeth, thicker eyebrows, and really short hair). I'd post a picture but I'm paranoid, I don't know how, and I'm about three miles east of photogenic.

But on to less self-deprecating topics (though the eyes were just right, all soulless and spine-chilling); I'm considering inventing the technology to steal beard-growing abilities (because by somebody's god, puberty is too slow).

They were here first though, in your case anyway.

 

[Death on Trapezoids]

I've never had anyone tell me that I resemble famous people, but I've been called slender man.

yeah.

To be fair, it was the middle of winter, I'm tall, and the person accusing me stood about half a head taller than my elbow.

 

[Dfskelleton]

I can't think of any real people I've been compared to appearance wise, but my friends have told me I look like Duke Nukem before.

 

[Davey Woo]

I look like "Sid" from Skins (I guess only British members may know who this is)
I also apparently look like McLovin from Superbad.

 

[pyrosaw]

When wearing my top hat, I look like Slash from Guns and Roses. My nickname is also Jack Sparrow. This will be the day, you almost caught, captain Jack, Pyrosaw.

 

[Da Joz]

People say I look like a younger Benicio Del Toro, like from when he was in Usual Suspects.

 

[Berethond]

The closest one is probably Owen Wilson, but with straight hair and a straight nose.

And?
Your point being?

I'm merely making the point that more money, better looks, being in movies, whatever (although I'm a huge fan of Viggo's) does not make them any better or worse.
The western culture of deifying celebrities has got to be one of the most crippling weaknesses in western societies that I can see. That and the shallow materialism and the repulsive corporate culture of greed mass consumerism and the projection of that corporate media's definition of beauty is nothing less than grotesque.

Why in the name of God must people torture themselves because they don't look like that famous person what'shisname?

It's not something I have any tolerance for.
Everyone who constantly compares themselves unfavourably to an air brushed, sculpte super model or actor is basically making themselves more and more unhappy.

This thread is for the laugh, and I'll get back to that shortly, but "they were here first" somehow qualifying them above me as a person?
No.
Just no.

I know that's not where you were coming from, but I feel I need to make myself perfectly clear.

How many people on these forums feel bad about themselves because they don't match up to the ideal phsyiques/looks/ luck with the opposite sex than the celebrities thrown in their faces?

 

[Dorian]

Nearly everyone in my family and several of my friends constantly feel the need to point this out to me.
Not that they're wrong. Far from it. Even though I am terrible at comparing faces, I can see the resemblance. Just the glasses are the only thing I really see different.

It got irritating after the second time.
