Doppelganger Week


So this week was Doppelganger Week on Facebook, or Facespace as Derek calls it. (that always make me laugh) I'm not sure when this became popular, but it sure seems to have taken off. I have known what a doppelganger was for a long time, but I had never thought about it humorously until I saw How I Met Your Mother. The five main characters on the show all have doppelgangers, two of which we have yet to meet. Spoiler alert!-for you fans we are suppose to meet Ted and Barney's doppelganger's this season! So far we have met Lesbian Robin, Mustache Marshall and Stripper Lily. If you are not watching this show, you really should reconsider, because you are being a fool!

Back to the blog! I'm sure those of you on facebook have noticed all the pictures going up of our friends doppelgangers. Some of you may have even participated in this tomfoolery, but I don't think any one who reads this did. If you did, don't take offense. This is just a blog that 8 people read. Simmer down.

I think some of our friends flatter themselves a bit! I am attaching a picture of Chris Farley to this post. If I were to have put up a picture, this would have been it. I really don't think I look that much like Chris Farley, but the body type fits, so go with it! I can only hope to be as funny as Chris Farley some day! I have really gotten a kick out of the pictures I have been seeing this week. Old friend from college, you are cute, but you do not look like Reese Witherspoon. No one told you that. Acquaintance from high school, you are no Drew Barrymore. Maybe you are, but then again I think I resemble Brad Pitt. Sorry Smarmy. Nicolas Cage? Really? And if facespace told me that I looked like Ellen DeGeneres, and my sex is male, I think I might not post that on my page. Perhaps you should consider that, former employee.

Some of our friends have done well! Apparently I have buddies that look like Tea Leoni, Josh Lucas and Thomas Hayden Church. These are three friends that really do have a possible doppelganger in these three celebrities. I have some good looking friends!

You may have noticed that I have not been naming names. I certainly don't mean this to be mean spirited. I just thought it was a funny week on facespace. Feel free to comment if you disagree!
