Talk Elections

Regardless of actual appearance, what is your mental image of the preceding poster looks like?

I just spent a few minutes trying to find a decent non-pornographic picture of a Suicide Girl with no luck.

Probably a lot like Alcon.

An Indian stockbroker.

an English lad holding a teacup and reading a newspaper while he browses the web.

A white guy who likes outdoor activities.

some guy in his mid 30's or mid 20's who is thin,but well built up top. His head is kind of square shape, and stuff.

I don't know, but this is his hat:

Wow, Grumpy-Gramps you are RIGHT on!

For Mechaman:

Going with what Grumpy said.

A Scandinavian looking fellow who can't grow facial hair.

Christopher 'Hitch' Hitchens

()

I'm not nearly that hairy, Nick!

()

()

A gentle down to earth guy with a "hickish" style.

Slightly Iranian/Arab looking nerd with cropped hair and glasses. Clothes always neatly arranged.

A gentlemanly fellow with a top-hat, coat, and walking-cane.

()

I'll beat everyone else to it...

()

Bored teenager spammer and wishing he had a gf (... is true for hundreds of posters here).

()

Raul Labrador without the Puerto Rican.

Opebo, how on earth do you find images like that. The preppy not one hair out of place WASP image that you found was from website of a tiny town in North Dakota or something. 

For Svensson: ()

()

Man in his early 50s trying to maintain the perception of being young, therefore a contributing factor in his grumpiness.

Pretty much how he looks. Seeing a picture of someone will do that.

Creative searching.. sometimes I work at it quite a while.  I like it.

(A young Winston Churchill)

I have changed somewhat, you know.

Since he plays sport and deems himself, to an extent a 'jock' I'm guessing tall, lean, blonde hair, blue eyes symmetrical facial features.

Kind of how he looks in his picture, but occasionally this picture pops up in my mind:

Also this:

Also, I'm very surprised you could guess that I have blond hair and blue eyes. I'm sure you knew that I was tall, though. :)

Hahaha sorry, I was looking for a better one but saw that and HAD to.

I would rather not think of it.

Not so much now, but a couple months ago...

As an aside, for the longest time, I used to wear the same type glasses as Denver. Now thanks to lasik ... . Ah the nostalgia. :)

That was just a bad hair day pic of me. :P

Since I've never really seen him here before, I will henceforth imagine him as looking like the picture he posted.

As of Morgan.

What's wrong with Fonzie?

Did I say there was?  There IS in fact something wrong with posting every other post in preceding poster threads, especially when you post the same thing over and over.  Now stop ruining and start contributing.

Who is that?

For you:

()

To Rochambeau: It was the lead singer from The Cure, as seen on South Park, who often spoke of a game named "Rochambeau."

Oh. I don't think I ever saw that episode. What do you think about the image I picked for you?

Episodes 12, Season 1 - "Mecha Streisand"

And, completely random. :P I'd prefer one of Dallas Taylor or a can of Miller Lite, but can't always get what we want.

I always pictured him as the state of Massachusetts.

()

Han Solo.

just like his avatar.

a/s/l?

()

()

()

I tend to picture him as a rotund teenage boy with glasses.

()

Also, WHY?

Female. Which is more than can be said for the rest of the forum. :P

Clean cut, athletic, rather handsome young man, is what is in my mind's eye. I mean the guy is just so disgustingly "normal" it seems to me.  :)

And yes, I ain't "normal" at  all. I am quite odd actually. :P

()

About 10 years younger, though.

()

You know it's just a joke.:P

()

I thought you were Morgan for a sec, I had an awesome picture... :P

()

Mhmmm?

()

()

()

Yeah, I bumped this.  Let's continue it.

()

()

Well...a very moderate version of this, but I gave up after 5 minutes of google searching ()

Since I've already seen what you look like in real life, it is very difficult to remember what I first pictured you as before I knew...

()

Just because you had this as your signature for so long. :P

Pretty much.

I think of all the my little ponies jockeys as basically being Uter from The Simpsons. The voice more than anything, but yeah, short, fair skinned and his voice more than anything.

I know what Smid looks like so it's not hard :)  One does wonder how Mrs. Smid hooked up with him.......(JOKE)

Prior to knowing what he looks like:

()

I know what he looks like from that one Gary Johnson vid he posted.  White, close cut hair, tallish and very thin.  Looks about 15.

Dude, please get right next time.  ::)

I got on to do this for Duke, but it's impossible, because my mental image coincides with what he actually looks like.

I would not be surprised if the "day 1" photo in Simfan's dictatorial thread was an actual self portrait.

That previous post showing him to be the old spice guy, well, I can see that, too. Or perhaps Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel Air.

 
Gramps: Indeed, I ponder the great mysteries of the earth daily. I have no idea how I managed that, either! All I know is, I'm a very fortunate man!

()

For better or worse, this show permanently colored my mental image of people, places, and things European at a very very young age.

()

I am aware of the source and of the rather unflattering implication of the character.

That being said, my mental image is now your signature.

I actually don't know anything about Homesick or whatever it's called all I know is this one character whose name is like Karkeys or something and so because you're into anime i was like hey this is the only character i've ever known from anything anime-related so

Well, I'm flattered this seems so plausible to you.

Carl:

I'm not that thin >:(

Scott, though I already did you, I have another one:

()

Spanish actor Eduardo García. I find him pretty similar to 20rp12

()

Julio is not Shakira though ...

I saw pictures of him. He's about as a pictured him, a Germanic version of the usual nerdy-looking young adult.

Like several people I know actually (personality wise not interest wise) but French Canadian.

()

()

()

I know he's on my Facebook and so I know what he looks like, but I always picture him with a big eastern European moustache.

You know. Australian. And all.

yEAAAAAAAAAAAAH TF2

yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :D

A little like a young Roy Barnes.

Maybe it was mentioned before, but anyway...()
(Sorry if offending)

I've posted my mental image of SJoyce before, so..

Pingvin:

()

Why is it that you can call another poster Hitler, but others here are being infracted for offenses far less offensive compared to that. You should be infracted for that if Naso is going to be infracted for the picture of the South Vietnamese police officer shooting the Viet Cong. Don't get me wrong, I find the post funny, but we have to have some fairness here.

Julio:

()

Torie but somewhat more rotund.

That actually looks more like Torie.

Goldwater:

()

Yes, Goldwater's one looks like Torie.

Carl when he gets older:

____________________

Oh, Sanchez, I wasn't insulting Pingvin. My mental image for him is the young Hitler, actually. He supports Golden Down and far-right parties in other countries... And is 14! When I read his posts, I imagine someone like the young Hitler writing them, just like I imagine Barry Goldwater when I read a Goldwater post, Mondale when mondale84 does or a young, Mexican Ron Paul when you do !!

What is that? I can't see the picture.

Yes, Grumps, yes!  :)

Well, now that you're raking in $1400 for a week's worth of work in cash, you can afford a proper suit and a good martini.

:)

to opebo:
()

()

()

()

I thought a bit about of whom Nathan reminds me as a matter of style and outlook, and googled for an image of the chap, and voila. Yes, the attire is a bit formal and dated, but put that aside. I wonder if Nathan can figure out who the chap is.

()

Is it a young Ralph Waldo Emerson? That looks like his nose and facial structure. If so, I appreciate the implied compliment but I'm not sure I'd say the comparison fits, exactly.

*skip*

()

Well done. :) But then I expected that of you, you bookworm you. Not being interested in sex has its advantages. I had time to read a lot back when too, when I was sexually confused. There are silver linings to much of what we think is otherwise hell, looking back. And so it goes.

That's awesome opebo, and fair comment to boot (including the balding, bare chest (albeit mine is considerably more hirsute) and tight jeans thing - all of which is my standard "uniform"), except that I would like to think I didn't look quite that bad in the before pic. :)

Skippy too.

For some reason I always imagined opebo as cutting a somewhat Herrickian figure, minus of course the religiosity. Perhaps it's the combination of the monarchism and the association of Herrick's moustache style with seventies sybaritism:

()

His brow is far too low, Nathan.  I look at once quite Waspy and a bit Ashkenazi Jewish, not at all like that fellow.

()

Mildly interesting note: the girl in that pic has a hobby of speed-drawing dinosaurs (link to her account for those too lazy to type it in (http://www.youtube.com/user/iiGethii)).

Anyway, when opebo posts in this thread, it tends to turn into a narcissistic creepy old dude circle jerk (as do many things surrounding opebo; what are the odds this makes it into his sig at some point?). To break that trend:

Also, with any other poster, I might suggest that the mental connection between opebo and Robert Herrick runs through Ron Jeremy who is a Herrick look-alike and much more of an opeboesque figure than Herrick. Given that the person posting that was Nathan, though, that seems unlikely.

()()

I'm really not much of a 'good time charley' like Ron Jeremy.  Nor am I much like this fellow:


Though certainly seeing photos like that gives me hope for mankind and the future.

()

I knew that Herrick had a porn 'stache (I was trying to say so tactfully), but I wasn't thinking of Mr Jeremy by name, no.

Although now that you mention it, the resemblance is uncanny. I Googled 'robert herrick ron jeremy' and other people have noticed it too. Search for 'herrick' in this page (http://english.louisiana.edu/gradconf/schedule.shtml), for instance. Or 'jeremy' in this one (http://colleenekennedy.wordpress.com/2013/02/06/on-herricks-nose/). The second link, incidentally, also taught me that Ovid's cognomen was 'Naso', a fact whose implications I still need time to process.

You're leaning back from your keyboard, taking a drag, after having typed something into the chat. Sitting on a rickety wooden chair in a small, dimly lit room. Your computer's running on Window 98 or something like that and is a huge off-white thing.
