rmaynard 15,434 #1 Posted October 28, 2023 dop·pel·gang·er /ˈdäpəlˌɡaNGər/ noun 1. an apparition or double of a living person. "he has been replaced by an evil doppelganger" I was in Gettysburg Pa on Thursday, about 15 minutes from the Big Show location and suddenly had a feeling that we had left Kevin @Pullstart behind last June. I had to roll down my window and take a picture. Is it Kevin? or is it his evil doppleganger? Hmmm? 2 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davem1111 2,030 #3 Posted October 28, 2023 "Our" Kevin is obviously more handsome and buff - I say that totally in a hetero, admiring Bro kinda way But yeah, they do look enough alike to cause a double-take. I've had people tell me I look almost exactly like someone else they know. I guess with 8 billion people on the planet it's difficult for our looks to be totally unique. For those who have kids, grandkids, or have otherwise seen the animated movie "Madagascar", it reminds me of when the zebra from the zoo gets to Africa and is standing in a large field of zebras, and says, "I'm unique! ....Just like everyone else....." 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handy Don 12,211 #8 Posted October 28, 2023 It can be hilarious. I was in another COUNTRY and had a small group come up and ask if I’d be in a picture with the group. After my initial suspicion eased, they explained I was a dead-on look-alike for a close friend of theirs--so much so that their initial thought was that he had come to join them without telling them. So I’m in a group shot with a bunch of strangers! I wonder what their friend thought!? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
