Scarlett Johansson - I asked him and that is what he said. He isn't my boyfriend as yet, we are just dating. I think it's because I put blonde highlights in my hair.

I've been told I look like Rivers Cuomo of Weezer. I was told that when I had a beard. I don't have one anymore.

Watching the Presidential inauguration ceremony, I received a bit of a shock. Add a few pounds and a bit more hair on top to me (oh, and dye it ash-blond, too), and I could pass for Rick Warren! At least, until I opened my mouth...

I would like to continue this discussion, because this is a way for Autistic people to feel good about themselves.

Not sure I want looking-like-a-celebrity to be a standard of feeling good about myself.

Actors/entertainers spend obscene amounts of money to attain that perfect look. On film/TV it's all in the lighting and the makeup. In magazines and promo shots they've been airbrushed to look even better. When the story involves a generic mix of people, notice how they're almost all red-carpet beautiful and height-weight proportionate (almost - sometimes there's a token nerd or overweight person, usually there for comic relief).

I especially like "Lost." Crashed and stranded on a desert island and yet they all maintain their runway-model hairdos and five O-Clock shadows (Hurley being the token fat guy).

It's an unrealistic standard for most of us normal folk and has people - kids especially - focusing on beauty as a measure of their self worth.

Looks help. I work out to keep myself out of the 'fat' category (and to remain independent and able to do for myself). I'm no supermodel but I'm no ugly duckling either. I'm in that comfort zone where if a hot guy wants to go out with me I can be sure it's for my personality and my brains. I've had really good looking female friends tell me they get used for their looks. So I'm pretty comfy where I am.

All that said as a gigantic qualifer, if they were going to make a movie version of my life the best choice of looks-something-like-me would be Eliza Dushku or Tina Majorino.

As a teen I was compared to Keifer Sutherland, and once I arrived here I was compared to Michael Chiklis. I can agree to both comparisons.

me:

Micheal Chiklis
