Separated At Birth ?

Now, this thread is meant to be in good fun, and no more than that. Please do not take it seriously; it has absolutely no redeeming social value whatsoever.


A while back, Matt Deckard posted a photo of himself that reminded me of an advertising campaign for VITALIS that ran in ESQUIRE magazine throughout the '30s. It showed male mannequin heads with different hairstyles. One of them had shiny black hair painted on: Brylcreem criticized it as "the patent leather gigolo look". Another head (named "Percy") had real hair in, er, Matt's style. It was derided as "the watered down, dried out straw look".

And here they are, side by side: Matt Deckard and "Percy". Could they be related? lol

(Oh, and please feel free to post your own "separated at birth" photos.)

This one has been done to death, but it's still funny. (I don't mean this to be offensive. I'm Catholic, so it's by no means a jab at Catholics, or the Pope.)

Consider this, I just noticed recently: 1940s jazz/r&b singer Louis Jordan and 1980s r&b singer George Benson: Not so much just their looks, but their voices sound the same, despite the huge differences in singing styles, listen to them side by side, its uncanny

Thanks! Now I'm going to have nightmares about that freaky Percy mannequin.

I've always thought that Dan Marino and David Hasselhoff looked a lot like each other:

Good God this post sucks

Marc, you are really disturbing. Do you work for a living, how do you earn money to feed yourself.

This is the stupidist post I have ever seen on the Lounge in my entire time here....and it is insulting to my co-Bartender.

Why don't you PM yourself to him and bury the hatchet?

I'm not sure how this is intended to build Matt up. You say to not take it seriously. Okay fine, but what purpose does it serve other than to make others laugh at Matt's expense? It'd be one thing if he posted it of himself to make a joke at his own expense; but coming from someone else, it comes across as a cheap shot. Maybe he'll chime in and say it's all fine and dandy, but in the mean time I feel I need to express my discontent.
