My grandfather looked exactly like Saddam Hussein
Married with two kids. And he now stores his LPs alphabetically by artist, then chronologically by release date.
Reference?
Some years back, I worked with a guy who looked a lot like Liam Neeson in his Qui-Gon days.
There’s a Department Head at work who reminds me of Richard Kind in looks, but thankfully, not in voice or mannerisms (I’m thinking Spin City here.)
High Fidelity, of course.
My dad claims he used to be mistaken for comedian Avery Scheiber on a regular basis. I never witnessed any of these occasions, but I was at the grocery store with Dad the time a man approached him and began to talk to him as if Dad were Mike Ditka. And yet Schreiber and Ditka don’t resemble each other much, if at all…
Brava (in deference to your femininity)!
the divemaster when he was younger looked quite a bit like kevin costner. today, he looks more like timothy hutton.
which is cool by me either way, as you might imagine.
he says i look a lot like jamie lee curtis ( before i went blonde); could be worse, i guess.
My college roommate has been mistaken for Queen Latifah on more than one occasion. Usually the mistaken people were inebriated.
One of the optometrists at my clinic, Dr. Brunson, is a dead ringer for Ralph Fiennes. The illusion is shattered once you talk with him, though.

My good friend’s old roommate is the spitting image of Julia Stiles. I’ve actually been out with her once and someone asked for her autograph. She told me that happens to her about once a month.
Finally, a waitress/bartender at a local bar her looks like a young Nicole Sullivan.
A union committeeman in the plant where I worked looked like the Devil. He didn’t have horns or a tail, but if somebody told you, “Walk down this aisle, and when you see a guy who looks just like the Devil, that’s him,” you’d pick him out of a crowd.
In their younger days, my parents looked like John and Yoko, my mom especially. I’ve told this story before, but as a kid, when I saw their saved copy of the Rolling Stone with Annie Leibowitz’s photo of J&Y on it, I wondered aloud what Mommy and Daddy were doing on the cover of Rolling Stone (with Daddy butt naked!)
In high school, I had two coaches for various sports who are brothers (one pictured here. I swear to Og that their long lost other brother is no other than The Closer’s J.K. Simmons. I can’t seem to find a picture of the brother who looks the most like him, though.
at Batsinma Belfry. At least I have a cite.
My grandfather was occasionally mistaken for Tip O’Neill (former Speaker of the House).
Got us a better table at a restaurant once.
Similarly, my father, during the 70s, looked significantly like Rob Reiner. They’ve both changed in very different ways since, but back in the day…
