There was a kid we used to see around campus who earned the nickname “Pizza Pizza Kid” because he looked exactly like the mascot for Little Caesar’s Pizza. ---

My boss looks exactly like [Betty Boop](http://members.tripod.com/boop_betty/misc/bba-22.gif) - the wide flat face, big eyes wide apart, the lot (facially anyway). ---

> [@Antigen](#): > > One of my friends looks like Bobby Hill, but older. It’s very, very strange. When I met the little Bobby Hill boy, it was a few years before camera phones were available, or I would definitely have a picture of him. I really wish I had a video of him asking me if he could mow my friends’ lawn, because people here would find it hilarious. Other people in the neighborhood agreed that he was exactly like Bobby Hill. Unfortunately, now that such technology is readily available, the kid is probably at least 18 and not at all like Bobby Hill. There was another guy in my neighborhood, whose name was Harley, who I first met after _Beavis And Butt-Head_ and before _King Of The Hill,_ who sounded **exactly** like Hank Hill and Mr. Anderson. If Mike Judge (who’s from Texas, of course) is remembered for nothing else, he was the first person who made a TV show with an accurate Texas accent. ---

> [@Meeko](#): > > I thought all “Comic Book Guys” looked like “Comic Book Guy”. (And acts like him to a certain extent. I heard somewhere that the comic guy was based on Matt Groening. I would imagine that you could find people who look similar to characters on the Incredibles, since they look realistic in a way. ---

A guy who gets on my tram sometimes looks just like [Nobby Nobbs](http://www.scheibenwelt.de/bilder/personen/nobby.jpg), a la Paul Kidby. ---

I went to college with the generic **Far Side** boy. Seriously, you could just say “the guy who looks like the Far Side boy”, and everyone on campus would know who you meant. ---

Speaking of Mythbusters, [Scottie](http://dsc.discovery.com/fansites/mythbusters/meet/meet_05.html) bears a bit of a resemblance to [Winry from Fullmetal Alchemist](http://www.hagaren.de/artbook/Artbook-Winry.jpg), doesn’t she?
