You look familiar. Just saying.

And to those saying that facebook isn’t letting them in, I went to the bottom of the page and now have the appropriate link.

There. Most of you don’t know me anyway, so it’s not like it matters. 😃

I’m sure I used the bottom link for my picture from Facebook, but I’ll try it again.

Here it is. Me, about a month on the Columbia River.

I love your hair in the second picture. Is that your natural hair colour?

I get that a lot. I’m not just saying that, it happens so much it’s getting annoying. At least once a month, I’ll have to go through a list of things I’ve done and places I’ve lived to convince someone that no, I just have a very familiar face. I’ve never played field hockey in Kansas City, I was never involved with the school board in Concord, and I have never groomed show poodles in South Dakota.

I’ll take it as a compliment though 🙂

You don’t look like anyone I know, just someone I’d like to.

It’s been close to ten years, and this is the first time I’m seeing a picture of you. You don’t look much like I expected you to, but look really good for your age, which I’d’ve only guessed by doing some quick mental math

You’re welcome - I am currently laughing at your expense. How unfortunate! 😃 It must be the law of averages…Or whatever it is called. You’re pretty all the same(And I’m gay so don’t worry, I WILL NOT STALK YOU. I may stalk your brother\*, so be sure to tell him.)

Simply Human,

~S.P.I.~

\*I am making an assumption. The assumption being that you HAVE a brother. Please do not confirm or deny the existence of said brother; I have no desire to pry into your personal life. It was merely a joke. 😃

Not going to name names, but there’s a gal on straight dope that looks like an angel!

For all I know she may be a jerk IRL, but… I got the ‘vapors’! A lot of the Doper ladies gotz-it go’n on! But one in particular struck me as… Wow.

No pics of me… I don’t mind the way I look, (aside from being short, which you wouldn’t be able to tell from a head-shot). I just feel weird doing it. I don’t want people to see a face behind the handle.

But don’t worry ‘mystery girl’! I just think you’re super-cute!

Thanks!

No, it’s not my natural color anymore. As I’ve gotten older, what isn’t turning gray is turning darker. It’s close to what my hair color looked like when I was about 17 years old after spending the summer in the sun.
