CaptOblivious Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) Bernard recently posted a photo of himself to a different thread, and it got me thinking: We've all got images in our heads of what we all look like, and they're usually wrong. Alpine (sorry Mag!) once told me that he'd pictured me as being considerably older, shorter, and heavier than I really am (because, I think, of my name, Don).So, for those who've never seen, here's me. (I'll let you just guess what I'm posing with.) What about you? Edited May 30, 2013 by CaptOblivious 2 Share this post Link to post
Bernard Posted March 5, 2010 Okay Don here is the repeat photo. If members can get their eyes off the Japanese TV host in the middle, I'm the tall one on the left. (Just to make members happy, here is a solo photo......of her!) Share this post Link to post
Martijn Meerts Posted March 5, 2010 Okay Don here is the repeat photo. If members can get their eyes off the Japanese TV host in the middle, I'm the tall one on the left. You mean there's someone other than a cute Japanese TV host in that picture? =) 1 Share this post Link to post
Darren Jeffries Posted March 5, 2010 Ok, I'll bite the bullet here. I'm the one in the middle!!! Share this post Link to post
disturbman Posted March 5, 2010 Question: Why oh why do you all pose with weird and/or beautifull (at least for Bernard) attractions? Lets count so far we got: - creepy female mouse - giant japanese starfish - NHK TV host Is there a pattern of some sort here? Do I have to find a picture that fits this pattern? I'm affraid someone will end up posting a photo of himself with Leonard Neemoy or Thomas the Tank Engine... 1 Share this post Link to post

disturbman Posted March 6, 2010 Sure, why not? And I thought, I was the dictator here. On the other side, this is me (whitout strange companions but with my winter features, which includes beard, long hair and big mantel): [smg id=852] As you can see, I love cinema. Share this post Link to post

disturbman Posted March 6, 2010 Wow, Vince, you're not quite how I pictured ya. I'll take that as a compliment. I'm curious, how where you picturing me? More like Skinner, Homer or Willie? True, I had some surprise as well. For exemple, I was picturing Bernard as another Bernard I use to know on Internet. Share this post Link to post

grumbeast Posted March 7, 2010 Well, I'm the one who is normally behind the Camera so it was hard to find, but here is one of me a couple of years ago resting after I'd just finished the Totoro mural in my (then 2 weeks from being born) Daughters bedroom Share this post Link to post
