People I’ve Been Told I look Like At Some Point During My Life
It’s inevitable. At some point in your life, you’re told you look like someone famous.
Do I look like anyone famous?
For me, it’s been a potpourri (or, for my Southern friends, a “pot purry”) of association. Here, in no particular order are those that your one and only Dumbfounded one has been compared to.
JASON LEE – Earl himself. I actually get this a lot (see previous post). From Brodie Bruce in Mallrats to Banky Edwards in Chasing Amy to the one and only Earl Hickie in My Name Is Earl… This one, I agree with.
MIKE FARRELL – Captain B.J. Hunnicut from M*A*S*H. Once was known as B.J. Hunni, travelling the U.S. performing at burlesque shows. Ok, that one, I made up.
JOHNNY KNOXVILLE – Ultimate Jackass. I don’t think so, but my wife says he reminds her of me and she thinks he’s sexy. I’m leaving well enough alone.
BOY GEORGE – Karma Chameleon extraordinaire. One night in Nashville Tn., I had some sort of 80’s type hat on and a drunk guy said “you look like Boy George. I should kick your ass!”. He then fell backwards in his chair and layed there for 3 minutes.
RANDY TRAVIS – Country Singer. I like this guy. I like him as a person, as a singer and as an actor. Looks wise? Ok, I’ll give them this one. I even do a MEAN rendition of “Forever And Ever Amen” in Karaoke.
HERMEY – Rudolph’s wannabe Dentist Elf Friend. Hey man, how could I complain? He yanked that bad tooth out of that son of a bitch Abominable Snowman’s mouth and turned him good! He saved Christmas! And yes… I really HAVE been compared to him.







High forehead, steep nose, strong jaw… I’m looking for the right vintage photo of John Kerry (one where he hopefully hasn’t combed and shellacked his hair into a helmet). Look at a photo of him during his presidential campaigning and you’re staring at your future, man. With the exception of running for high public office, I should hope.
