Picked my son up from daycare one day and a little girl said hey daddy. Yup, that's it.

A couple of old girlfriends kept calling out, "Oh, God."

I didn't have gray hair or a beard, so the resemblance must have been based on something else.

A few years ago in Grenada. Had some villagers flock up on me unexpectedly. Wife was kind of freaked out.

They thought I was Chuck Norris.

It was kind of funny afterwards.

My workplace is really fucked up, from top management on down. Some of my co-workers keep mistaking me for someone who gives a fuck about the problems. These days I am content to just sit back and watch it burn.

In before "someone who gives a shit"

I've been mistaken for a Packers player at a local hotel by kids looking for autographs and former MLB pitcher Josh Beckett. That was quite a few years ago though.

I had on dark wraparound sunglasses and just a 'stache. Then again......they watch some very old movies there. At first, we didn't know what they were saying, but knew they were very exited. It was weird.

My nickname is Stiffler...

I've literally been stopped in public 5-6 times by people thinking I'm him. I see a slight resemblance, but not enough to mistake me for him.

I recently had a woman tell me I look like the guard from "orange is the new black" never seen the show so I don't know.

everybody mistakens me for tom cruise from a distance

I've had people take pictures of me out of the blue and get starred at often.
I'll play along most of the time

I've never been mistaken for anybody, but a large percentage of people I meet seem to think they've met me before. I guess I'm just common looking. Back in high school people kept saying I looked like Rob Lowe, but I never saw it myself. Sure as hell don't look anything like him now. There was a Kirk Cameron period too, I think my hair was a bit like his back when that show was on.

Michael Douglas, throughout Japan, Europe and even here in the States.

My SO even says she went out with me solely because she and her GF's thought I was a MD double at the time.

In my younger days apparently I had a more than passing semblance to the lead singer of the Bloodhound Gang, lets look past the fact that we were never in the same country at the same time, and I was running a sound desk...

Couple years ago on vacation at Disney World, a guy working there said to me "you're the Dude! The Dude abides." I guess he thought I really was the Dude.

Just a few days after the Oklahoma City bombing, the Colorado Highway Patrol mistook me for Timothy Leveigh.

Thought I was gonna get ventilated that day. My truck fit the description of what he was supposedly driving almost perfectly, and he and I looked enough alike at a distance.

I got Jesse James from a new employee this week. The bike guy, not the outlaw.

I actually look a lot like Chris Pratt, it really is quite uncanny. I've seen pics of him at movie premieres in a tux and it really looks similar to how I looked in my prom picture.

They were looking for Timothy McVeigh. Colorado cops must have been high.
