At various times when I've gotten a shorter than normal haircut, people will say "Nazi."  As a blond, blue-eyed, pale American, that hurts!  Although I'm not actually being discriminated against, now I totally know what discrimination is like.

Maybe if your eyes weren't so clearly full of hate, this wouldn't be a problem!  Also, stop bossing people around about cream.

Half-full.  Too lazy for full of hate.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

Ah, the "I'm too lazy to be a Nazi" defense.  I should've known you'd resort to that!

I know what you mean, though.  I pretty much top out at mildly irritated..

My brother keeps telling me I look like Minnesota Twins outfielder/DH Jason Kubel:



I really do not know how to take this, especially after he struck out like fifteen times during the ALDS.

Remember how he couldn't stop his leg?

I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but Yoko Ono hisses when I pass by.

I was standing at the post office counter on Tuesday. There were about five or six people in a line behind me. There was a guy being helped by another clerk next to me and when he was leaving he stopped and said to some guy in line, "Does anyone ever tell you you look like Brett Farve?". The guy (who I hadn't seen yet because I am allergic to any sort of eye contact while visiting the post office) said, "Yep. All the time. But I have more kids." Everyone in the line behind me started taking and agreeing that he did indeed look like Brett Farve.

So of course I become curious but I couldn't be that guy who rubbernecks around to take a gander at the stranger so I waited until I left. As I passed him I took a look. He had three young kids with him and was chatting with other people in line but he looked right at me smiling as I walked by. I smiled back.

Boy did that dude really look like Brett Farve. Seriously.

I think he was OK with it though.

"You know who you look like?"
"Don't tell me. Just keep it to yourself."
"That guy who gets shot in the nards as the end of The Last House on the Left."
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO TELL ME." *Walks away*

Consistently, I either get James Woods or Steve Buscemi or some combination.

At least 2-3 times a week since I was a young teenager, someone has told me that I looked like Ice Cube.
Today I was in a liquor store and the attendent was actually annoyed with me when he realized that I wasn't Ice Cube.

Ah, rookie mistake.

Hodgman is clearly a geek.  Clayton is a obviously a dork.  Somewhat subtle difference, but it's a significant one.

The topic's all but dead on the show, but I've got a visual version of it...

I didn't mean for it to happen. I want that to be perfectly clear.

I was asked to contribute a piece to a downtown gallery for an upcoming show called "Urban Myths & Legends". Pressed for time and short on ideas, I went with the first urban legend that popped into my head - that Josh Sorvino, the guy who played Paul Pfeiffer on "The Wonder Years", grew up to become Marilyn Manson. It's since been debunked, thanks to the internet, but I remember that one flew around thick during my years in high school and hung around until the 90's died. So my piece took Marilyn and stuck him in the world of the TV show. I combined the looks of both the actor and the singer for a portrait.

Which...ended up being a dead ringer for my girlfriend's roommate (aside from the dyed hair, stupid contact lenses and translucent skin). I didn't realize it until I signed my name to it. The biggest burn was that her roommate actually got called "Paul Pfeiffer" throughout school. I have since apologized many many times over.

whoa, skills.


I HATE, HATE, HATE, the "Do you know who you remind me of"  conversation.

I get it a lot, maybe that's why.   When I was younger and blond it was "that girl from Dharma and Greg" then when I dyed it back to brown it was "a young Carrie Fisher."  Most recently I've gotten "a young Shirley McLean" 

And the thing that bugs me about these conversations? is that there's no where to go from there.  I mean, what do I say to that?

  "I'm sorry, your face is so boring and forgettable that I can't think of anyone you look like."
