    "You look like Drew Barrymore/Abby from NCIS/Zooey Deschanel/Katy Perry/Flo from Progressive"

    Bascially, if you have dark hair with bangs, get ready for these. We do not all look alike! I was offended by all of these, but was told I should be flattered because they're oddly hot. Just what every girl dreams of: being odd and hot.

    When I was extremely pregnant with my son, people would tell me, "I didn't even know you were pregnant!"

    Keep in mind, I knew that they were just trying to appease me because I was this hideous fat bloated creature-- but it was like, oh, yeah. I just look like I swallowed a globe ALL THE TIME. And not a regular one-- one of those ones you put out for Christmas in your front lawn.

    Not that there's too many things you can say to a pregnant woman to actually make her feel better...

    I get that all the time when I have straight across bangs.

    I love the Katy Perry one. I work that s***.

    A very long time ago a friend told me "I don't like it when Leann goes out with us because none of the boys notice me then."

    For the record, I totally agree with you. I also throw Katy Perry in there, too. I worship the ground they walk on.

    "If you lost 20lbs, you could do porn."

    :angry:

    that's kinda awesome actually, as a way to strike up a conversation with somebody and see if they have a sense of humor. :happy:

    It was NOT awesome. I assure you. It was someone I knew from high school who I saw a couple of years ago. He was being serious.

    Sorry to offend but you totally look like Zooey to me in your photo. I think there are a lot of women 20-40's right now who are dying to look like her though...

    In a bar:

    "You should just give up. No REAL MAN wants you, just go ahead and turn *kitten*."

    Then he turned around to leave and my brother punched him in the face. True story.

    in your profile pic, you also resemble demi lovato a little bit, who is also stunningly gorgeous.

    Someone commented on an old fb profile pic: "Jamie Lee Curtis?!"
    At 25 years old I was a little uncertain about that!

    Also "Aww you guys look so alike... are you mother & son?" .....said about my OLDER brother & me when I was about 19 :(

    haha I get those kinds of comments too. I've actually had people argue with me that I can't be from Missouri, or must have lived somewhere else for a long time, etc. And people at my garage sale were asking my fiancé and I where we are from. Guesses included Michigan, Canada, and England. Both of us have lived in the Ozarks (southern MO, northern AR) for our entire lives.

    So weird.
