so, you know how everyone was obsessed with the whole facebook celebrity doppelganger phenomenon a couple months back?
well, someone i sort-of-know-enough-to-be-facebook-friends-with just now, apparently, got the memo about it and recently posted their supposed doppelganger.
...i tried really hard not to make a big deal out of this, and probably shouldn't since the person in question and i have quite a few mutual friends, but the more i see this comparison the more i LAUGH/DIE inside.
so this real life person, who will forever go unnamed, has a) posted their celebrity doppelganger as their profile pic, b) is weirdly proud of it, and c) somehow sees nothing wrong with it. literally, it's as if the real life person was like, "wow! i look just like that. that's SO cool! i can't post this quick enough!!!"
and, i know i've been known to sensationalize every story i've ever written about, but this is real. and it's almost too good to be true. but it is true and that's what makes life enjoyable.
i will also admit that there is a definite resemblance of the real life person and the celebrity. and that's exactly the problem/what's funny. the often good looking celebrity and this real life guy could actually be mistaken for one another.
BUT.
...and i'm capitalizing and bolding but because it's a big BUT: the picture used of the celebrity is probably the absolute worst picture i have ever, ever, EVER seen of that celebrity.
and i'm talking bad. like rotfl kind of bad and i almost never speak in teenage acronyms unless it's absolutely applicable.
this was so applicable.
to set the tone of how crazy it is - i wouldn't have even guessed it was said celebrity until i literally read the caption. the celebrity looked about 15 lbs overweight, frumpy, all-around dumpy, his outfit was extra unflattering, he had gross facial hair, and, as an entire package, was completely not cute what.so.ever.
so, if you're the real life person using this specific pic as your celebrity doppelganger profile pic...
yikes. not a good day.
sorry bout it! if i were you, i'd take that profile pic down IMMEDIATELY, and then take a step back from the ledge!
