Hey friendly fellow forum folks!
Just a game, nothing serious. There was a thread a while back where everyone posted a picture of themselves. This is like that, only backwards.
Pick some members, find a picture on the Internet that looks like what you think they look like, and post it! The members can tell you how close or far off you are.
Obviously no fair if you already know what they look like. So try to pick some people you've never seen pictures of!
I'll start with a couple of random ones.

Moose:
And the race is on!

Love your enemies!

I disagree with the pic of Moose. That is a pic of someone that is much more wild and crazy than Moose is. You posted a pic of someone that is obviously out of control compared to Moose.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Wish I recognized either picture.

Actually, when I examine my opinions, I assume that everyone I talk to on the internet is the same age, sex, race, and weight as me, though of course I assume that they are somewhat less attractive, cos, let's admit it, I am kinda special in that department. So my mental picture of everyone is basically that they look like me only less awesome.

Nope
This is not a very fair question as our perceptions of other posters is based largely on our opinions of their posts, which can vary widely depending on one's point of view.
As such, this thread has the potential to degenerate into useless name-calling via pictures. I'm not interested.
(By the way, I am every bit as handsome and clever as my avatar suggests.)

Re: Nope
Actually, I think that Coyote looks like this ...
However, if I managed to override my first instincts then I'd think he looks like me. Apparently I am my own default position.

I would, I confess, love to see what people think I look like.

Nope. Not from this Coyote.
I'd just as soon try to guess a woman's age or weight.
And I learned the dangers of that a long time ago!

I have to admit that I've never imagined you as having a very standout look. I'd put you somewhere between

I think we can all stand a little humor. Feel free to take your best shot at me.

Wow! just about what I had in mind for these two, but I'd have jar in a cowboy hat.
