You guys are too literal. Although, I am not surprised. All you have is words to go by. When I said "hate", I didn't literally mean that I "hated" it. I didn't like it. I don't like being told that I look like someone that I don't. It's that simple. It's not like I'm sitting here plotting revenge. Just thought some of you might have had similar experiences at one time. Mod cut.
I'm human. Sometimes things bother me.

Reason: Rude; off-topic.
Only when that person they're referring to is not attractive.
I've gotten Tyra Banks, Vanessa L. Williams, and Rani Mukherjee, and I am not Black or Indian. My thoughts? I wish! I don't get a lot of you look like so and so, but I do get a lot of you don't look <insert nationality>. I used to find it offensive because I think women from my nationality are beautiful. Now it doesn't bother me as much. From what I read, a lot of Indians don't find Freida Pinto attractive, but the Western people do. Well, I am kind of like Freida. Lots of people from my nationality don't find me attractive, but I have no issues with men from other nationalities, particularly of European descent.
Thank you for your honesty. Without trying to make me feel like a dillhole for no reason at all.

"Hate"? Not at all. Can't say it would really bother me.
I've gotten Rosario Dawson, but I don't really see it. And if Rosario Dawson and Angelina Jolie had a baby, a girl, it would apparently look like me. Not sure about that one, but it's NOT a bad thing to look like either.
"Hate" was taken too literal. But at least you had something else to say. Thank you.
I'm a white dude, but I've had a several people over the yrs approach me and start speaking Spanish, I politely tell them I don't do the hablo thing, wished I did actually, LOL
One time this old Mexican dude starts speaking to me in Spanish and I politely tell him that I don't speak Spanish, he then starts to give me a lecture in English about how I shouldn't deny my heritage and to not be ashamed of who I was... LOL, I just laughed and told him that I wished I was Hispanic, being a white guy is so boring... LOL....
Irish Mick here....
Mrs. Chow is actually half Mexican and I look more "Mexican" than she does... LOL....
I can't think of a celebrity that I would say I look like.

Anybody remember Waldo of "Where's Waldo?" from the 1990s? When it first came out, people told me that I looked like Waldo.
A lot.
An AWFUL lot.
It really got annoying after the first few hundred times...
These days, I fare a bit better. Quite a few people have said that I look like John Lennon. One told me I remind her of a 1990s-era John Corbett. Personally, I don't really see the resemblance. I think people just see my long hair, beard, and glasses, and their minds fill in the rest.
But no, I don't mind either one. They're a definite improvement over Waldo!
Sometimes it bothers - all depends on "who" they say I look like. There a lot of celebrities that I've been told I look like, and none of them look alike at all.
I wish I had a dollar for every time someone said I looked like one of their friends or relatives. Does it bother me? No. I'm highly social and if it makes a stranger feel more at ease with me because I feel familiar then I view that as an asset. It was even more of an advantage when I was working and taking care of someone's most precious one. I can't tell you how many times I became part of their family temporarily. I miss that side of my job. It was very rewarding.
