I am Lorelai Gilmore, sadly minus the impossibly cute townies and wealthy parents. I occasionally wonder if the Sherman-Palladinos have bugged my house. ---

I somewhat aspire to the Philip Barrie character who gave me my handle. In real life, though? Elliot Reid. (Except for the politics ā€“ which I assume she picked up from her father. As I did.) Some days I feel like my life is one big _FACEPALM_. But with job competence and great hair! ---

[QUOTE=Khadaji] A woman I used to date once compared me to _Howard Roark_ from _The Fountainhead_ I was not flattered. [/QUOTE] Heh, obviously youā€™ve a better sense of humor than olā€™ Howard.

Hermione Granger in glasses, minus the dentist parents and magic. I even live with a redhead! (Whom Iā€™m not dating, but there arenā€™t any fictional characters I match perfectly.) ---

As a supposedly nice and sensitive guy who screws up a lot, probably Dr. John ā€œJ.D.ā€ Dorian from _Scrubs_ or Xander Harris from _Buffy_. But I wish I was more like Rupert Giles or even Wesley Wyndham-Pryce. ---

A female Ignatius Reilly, except not in NOLA or grossly overweight (pudgy, yes). I have a rather fetching hunterā€™s cap w/flaps and a tendency to scream at the TV while eating pastries. My valves are not quite as sensitive as Iggyā€™s, thoā€™. ---

My wife thinks I resemble an in-shape Meat Loaf (and yes, there was a time he was in shape). For personality, I get Andy Richter a lot, and sometimes Kevin James. Because of this, my wife makes me watch King of Queens, of which Iā€™m not fond. I always pictured myself as a better looking version of Eleanor Roosevelt. And, although Iā€™m a guy, I donā€™t think Iā€™m particularly more masculine. -Cem ---
