You don’t look like Darth Vader (I hope).

But [Kuwait](http://i1img.com/images/travel/travel_guide/maps/middle_east-kuwait-map-kuw.gif) [does](http://www.unitedmaskandparty.com/Armor/images/darth_vader_side.JPG).

Apologies to Private Eye magazine, from whom I have shamelessly stolen this Lookalike)

I have the opposite problem. People are always on their best behavior around me. The sluttiest girls become virtuous and chaste in my presence. Nobody has ever invited me into the bathroom to do a line with them. Sure, it’s great that total strangers never come up to me and make racist remarks, but sometimes ya’ need a little more Darth Vader and a little less Donny Osmond, eh **Scylla**?

Now I have this image in my head of Darth Vader sittin in the back of his pickup truck, havin a couple cold ones, and pickin off the occasional groundhog.
