What do we look like?

Post by _Runtu »

It's funny how you can interact with people online and never have a clue what they look like. Of course, you all know by now that I look like Matthew Broderick, only far more handsome. So I've always had these mental images of people, especially if they don't have an avatar. So, here are my mental images of some select people (who don't have images of people in their avatars).

Dr. Shades: Peter Sellers as Dr. Strangelove
Liz: Jean Smart (don't have any idea why)
beastie: For some reason, I picture my exmo sister (also don't know why)
gramps: The Edge
Sono_hito: River Phoenix with his hair grown out
Gazelam: A young David Bednar
maklelan: Frank "Grimey" Grimes
Fortigurn: Edmund Blackadder
moksha: still can't shake the Gandalf association
Coggins7: Steve Martin at the beginning of "The Jerk"
asbestosman: Reverend Camden from "Seventh Heaven"

Some MADB posters:

charity: either Doris Roberts or Edie McClurg
Pahoran: Robert Patrick in Terminator 2
Hammer: Eddie Haskell

ROFL, that's pretty close actualy. Just give him a goatee, slightly darker lightly receding hair line, and you got something very close to me.

Well, your avatar is the mental image I have of you. And behind the mask is Hugo Weaving, right? So, two mental images for you.

Jean Smart, huh? She's pretty, so I'll take that as a compliment. I'm brunette, however, not blond.

Well, I was thinking of Jean Smart from the Designing Women era. :-)

Yeah, I'm just bored, and giving you a hard time.

I assume the various pictures in your avatar that you've been putting up are actually you?

Sorry for the avatar schizophrenia. Was just messing around trying to find one that I like.

#1 was me
#2 was Eduardo Abaroa
#3 was the cover art from Arctic Monkeys "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not"
#4 was Krusty the Clown
#5 is me

You do look like Broderick Runtu, especially from Godzilla when he was wearing those glasses the whole movie.

I'll never think of Moshka as anything but a penguin.

I shall now always think of Dr. Shades in the Dr. Strangelove character.

Who Knows will always be wearing that mask in my mind.

Scratch will always be the Architect, same with Rollo being Neo.



Personally I look like Quasimodo, only blonde, and not French.
