What I think You all Look Like
 
Thanks to the "What do you look like" thread, I know what a fair number of GreekChatters look like. As for the ones I don't, I've formed mental pictures of them in my mind. Kind of like I do when I'm reading a novel.

For instance, I picture DeltAlum as looking like Pierce Brosnan. Justamom is, I bet, a ringer for Candace Bergen. Although her self description is to the contrary, I picture Carnation as looking like the mom on Seventh Heaven (Maybe that's just because they both have large families, though!). For some reason, I picture AOPiAlum looking like the woman who plays Loralei Gilmore. I dunno, these just popped into my head and so I guess these folks are stuck looking like this in my mind!

smiley21 07-07-2003 08:55 PM

i imagine james with a really big beer belly that sticks out of his shirt. he sits at the computer scatching between his toes with his girl's old nail file. :p :p kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i imagine texas princess looking like either rachael leigh cook or jennifer love hewitt.

i imagine arya looking like derek jeter....okay maybe that is a little much. its a nice thought though. no wait, i think he looks like ryan seacrest!!!;)

i was thinking DeltAlum looking like george clooney.

i think justamom looks like diane lane..very elagant and classy

AchtungBaby80 07-07-2003 09:49 PM

Ha, I have mental pictures for most people on here, too, regardless of whether or not I've seen their real picture!

mmcat 07-07-2003 09:54 PM

that's a scary thought....
:D

dzsaigirl 07-07-2003 10:00 PM

I always think of carnation as a Sally Field look-alike.:)

Tom Earp 07-07-2003 10:14 PM

My two favorite loves, Canadice Bergen and Sally Field!:cool:

PITTER PAT-PITTER PAT!!!!!!

Yea JWOW(JAM) and Carnation!!!!!!!!http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmili...malelovies.gif

I will have you in my dreams now!:cool:

OMG I am getting embarased now!:o

OrigamiTulip 07-07-2003 10:28 PM

33girl looks like Alanis Morrisette.

DeltAlum looks like William Shatner.

Tom Earp looks like Wilford Brimley.

AlphaGamDiva 07-07-2003 10:28 PM

yeah, and i have a pic of carnation, but due to her copyright laws, i don't dare post it! ;)

i have an image of more how ppl sound than how they look, i think....prob b/c most of the ppl i chat with on here i've seen their pics already. but i could def see deltalum as a pierce brosnan...lol

i opt to believe all the men without pics on here are brad pitt-esque.....don't crush my fantasy! :D

DeltAlum 07-07-2003 10:29 PM

Rose and Smiley,

Thank you both very much. Those are both VERY flattering. If only either were true.

Closer to Clooney, but if I looked like anyone famous, it might be Phil Donohue -- lots of hair, although not yet as gray -- and no glasses. In younger years, a little like a young JFK -- again, the hair.

Although when I was in college, I did work at a TV station with George Clooney's father, Nick Clooney. And our best man was the director of the Phil Donohue Show for a while.

None of the looks rubbed off.

I don't really have a person in mind, but I would expect JAM to be VERY classy in looks and comportment. Which could fit Candace Bergan very well, come to think of it.

Because she has said she is "short," I think the Sally Field comparison might fit Carnation -- although I seem to remember that she is at least part Asian? Or am I thinking of someone else?

OK, how about Tom Earp, the ex-cop? How about Jerry Orbach, the older cop on Law and Order. (BTW, did anyone realize that Orbach won the Tony Award for best actor in a musical for Promises, Promises in 1967? First show I ever saw on Broadway)

OK, enough digression.

edited to add

Amazing how many more have posted while I wrote this. Thanks to you all.

Sorry, I had to come back.

I agree with you, Tom. Two of my favorites, also.

(Back to name dropping, sorry -- I guess all those years in TV allowed me to meet a lot of folks)

It just struck me as funny, reading the other posts from while I was writing my last that I actually met Jerry Orbach and Sally Field (I mean the Tom Earp and Carnation look-alikes) while they were traveling in a musical many years ago. They appeared on a talk show we were doing at the time.

AlphaFrog 07-07-2003 10:47 PM

I think of EagleChick as looking like Angelina Jolie (I have no idea why...)

I think of Digital as looking like Drew Barrymore with dark hair... (again, no idea why)

I think of Tom Earp as someone with lots of people surronding him with confused looks on their faces...

I think of AggieSigmaNu (Kitso) wearing a giant cowboy hat

And I think of docet saying "oy" alot... LoL

FAB*SpiceySpice 07-07-2003 11:32 PM

For some weird reason I always picture Rudey to be tall with dark hair, very good looking, and always wearing a baseball hat on backwards. :D

I think Justamom would look Sally Field in "Steel Magnolias"

I always think of KRose and Amycat as extremely glamourous too, which I am sure they are!!! :)

Same here! :) Even though I imagine JAM w/ longer hair than Sally Field did in the movie. :)

smiley21 07-07-2003 11:41 PM

by the way, i think that dionysus looks like jennifer lopez with the attitude of pink.
i think sugar and spice looks like sarah michelle gellar

i think krose has the sweetheart personality that resembles reese witherspoon

i think amycat would look like lisa marie presley:p

no i think deltalum should look like nicholas cage......total fantasy there!

I've seen pix of KillarneyRose and amycat. They really do look like movie starlets!

sugar and spice 07-08-2003 12:14 AM

I always picture Kitso in the cowboy hat too. :p

From the picture amycat uses on livejournal.com, she looks EXACTLY how I pictured her . . . it's almost spooky.

And on the flip side, James looks nothing like I pictured him . . . I thought he would be way more "fratty."

valkyrie 07-08-2003 12:25 AM

Helloooo?! I want to see James!

Because I have no idea what he looks like, I picture him as this really dorky kid I knew in college who was also named James. His favorite hobby was playing "guess the bra size" and even though you could tell he probably had no experience with actual bras or women, he was usually correct in his guesses. ;)

He doesn't look how I pictured him, either (like an old troll)...I thought he'd be waaaaay less hot than he is! ;)

lovelyivy84 07-08-2003 12:52 AM

Wow, you all are nice, lol.

To be honest I really don't think about what people look like exactly. I don't really think most of GC looks like any celebrity. The most I go with is guessing whether a poster is good looking or hit, and that has more to do with how much confidence (read: confidence, NOT bravado or hubris) I see in their posting.

sugar and spice 07-08-2003 12:52 AM

According to James, I have yet to actually see a picture of the real him . . . I wonder if he'll ever show himself to the rest of us GCers? ;)

James 07-08-2003 12:59 AM

yuppers, exactly like that lol.

Ditto to that, DeltAlum - that is exactly how I picture Tom!

I always thought DeltAlum would look like Sam Waterson(sp?) the lawyer on Law and Order.

I picture JAM and Carnation as modern day Jackie Os.

I always think of T*P as looking like Jackie from That 70's Show.

-Rudey
--I won't deny wearing baseball caps backwards or cocked to the side.

I can totally see this one!!! Hehe.

I have also seen a picture of Amycat and she really does look exactly how I had imagined her!!! Totally glamourous. :)

DigitalAngel126 07-08-2003 09:31 AM

Hmmm Tom strikes me as my Uncle Ed....So I'm guessing that doesn't ring a bell for y'all. :p

FAB*Spiceyspice is like...Okay, and this isn't because of the screen name, but Posh Spice. Heh.

librasoul22...Hmmm...Eve, don't ask why. Perhaps the spunk??

Kitso - - Uhmmmm...Perhaps...I can't think of his name.. Faith Hill's husband.

HotDamnImAPhiMu - Jennifer Anniston

GMUBunny - - Blonde hair, rosy cheeks, big smile..Dunno why.

James - Short for a guy, dark hair, darker complexion...Um I can't spell...VERY White teeth....Don't nkow where i get this stuff.


That's all I have for now..I can't really think of what I think people look like until I'm actually talking to them.

Tom Earp 07-08-2003 09:43 AM

I dont have as big a mustache as Wilfred B!!!!!:p

At least you said Uncle Ed instead of Mr Ed!;)

DeltAlum 07-08-2003 11:06 AM

I gave this a little thought (about a minute) last night after reading the thread the first time and decided I was wrong.

So, I can buy the Carnation/Sally Field comparison since someone who has either seen a picture of or met Carnation says it's true.

However, I've decided that since JAM and Mrs. DeltAlum apparantely have a fair amount in common (gathered from past posts), they probably resemble each other somewhat...

So...

JAM looks like Diana Rigg, the British actress who played Emma Peale in the Avengers TV series some years ago. In her "prom queen" picture in her HS yearbook, Mrs. DA is a dead ringer for Rigg. By the way, what I first said about "classy and comportment" still goes since I think Rigg is/has both.

JAM, you do drive a Lotus Elan, don't you?

smiley21 07-08-2003 11:29 AM

crimson tide- looking like stacy dash (remember dione on 'clueless'?) but having the comedic talent of monique or maybe wanda sykes (maybe she would be a good choice for dionysus)

if i didnt see those pictures of ilovemyglo, i would think she resembles alicia silverstone.

i am watching 'clueless' again right now.

librasoul22 07-08-2003 11:43 AM

Well for the record, I look nothing like Halle, Grace, or Eve, lol. I have been compared to lots of people but I think that was mostly drunken guys trying to hook up at the club, lol.

valkyrie 07-08-2003 11:52 AM

I could see libra as a shorter, lighter skinned Venus Williams with shorter hair. :)
