Doppelganger-palooza

If there's one thing people wish they could alter about my personality, it would be my smell. When I explain that personalities don't smell, they say they were just trying to broach the subject politely.

If there's a second thing people wish they could change about me, it's my penchant for thinking that somebody "looks exactly like" somebody else. Actually, just thinking that wouldn't be a problem; I tend to point it out. Repeatedly. But now, thanks to the interweb, I can share with you, my loyal readers [Ingrid and Audio] some of my favorite examples of the phenomenon.

For my premiere Doppleganger-palooza, you get a double doozy! Kenny, of La Rocca's fame, always reminded me of a young Bruce Bochy, but then it came to my attention (over several vodka tonics with friends) that his true likeness is that of Mark Loretta. I grudgingly concede to the Lorettaphiles, but I'm not too far off.

Behold!

Kenny and an unidentified ho-bag.




Mark Loretta prepares to throw wide to 1st.




I remind Kenny that he looks like Bruce Bochy.





Bruce Bochy weighs his options. (SpoilerAlert! He has none.)

Haha, I finally got to this. Nice comparison amigo. Loretta it is. Bruce Bochy in about 15 years.

It's not just that someone 'looks like someone else' - it's usually that they look like a mix of two people. I'm surprised that in this post, Kenny doesn't look like a perfect union of Bruce Bochy and Mark Loretta.

Nice use of hobag. I met someone the other weekend that really liked that movie. Barf.

I'm glad to see that you finally agree, as it's been years of trying to conivnce you of this, er, "personality trait." I'm also happy that you chose an example where pictures are included. Makes it easier on those of us who generally think you're half in the bag when making such comparisons without pics.
