What tv/movie character are you identified with?

In my case, most of the time I'm identified with Chandler Bing from Friends.
And you?

I've been described as being just like Kramer from Seinfeld. But I see myself as Robert Barone.

I would say one-half "Randall" from the movie "Clerks" and one-half "Wayne Campbell" from "Wayne's World" :shrug: :lol: :nod:

Because of my competetiveness and cleanliness - Monica from Friends.

phoebe from friends~

Darlene from Roseanne, or Jane from Daria.

when i was young, Kirstey from cheers.
then Elaine from seinfeld
various other random ones that i've forgotten.
Yay. Oh, and separate, independent people compared me to Gwen when I was younger. I really don't get that. I think they said something about my expressions, but I really am not sure what it was all about. :shrug:

In my younger days, Baby from "Dirty Dancing" and now sometimes Rachel from "Friends", only because I used to have the "Rachel" haircut and because I kind of dress like her, I don't know, I guess I dress young for my age. :shrug:

I have no idea. Pick any eccentric, loudmouth harridan you want. :laugh:

I have come to be known as one Joey Potter, from Dawson's Creek.

I identify with Gumby from the Monty Python sketches.

Your father was accused of being Basil? Your father ran a cafe? There's so much I do not know.

No character, but last night someone finally made a celebrity comparison that I thought worked. Randomly, people have said I look like Keanu, and I don't see it. But last night, a friend's wife said I looked like a Spanish Keanu Reeves. That, I can kinda see. And talk about flattered. Sheesh.

Much like I don't identify with a Juliette Lewis/Kelly Osbourne hybrid. Actually I do identify with the former's retarded tendencies.

Anyhoo, yes my father had some sort of mid-life crisis and one day quit his job as.....whatever it was, I always thought he was an air traffic controller but then I think it turned out he was in charge of the systems that ran the air traffic control. Bleh whatever, I have a memory was watching Full House from the top of that tower, oh and those big rooms with all the radars were cool, I thought it was some sort of secret intelligence thing. But he quit one day, bought a cafe, found that customer service is no place for Nazis and pissed off to the country.....and then came back *sigh*. That's your little lesson about Lux for the day.

He had a tendency to piss off and have arguments with half of the customers and randomly decide he adored the other half, not leaving them alone until they managed to squeeze out the door. The ones he didn't like were named "Oi!!". I remember one of the last days he had it, I had to come out and calm down a verbal yelling match that was about to turn into some sort of punch-up. But this is my father we're talking about, not your average 'bloke'.

Thanks for my lesson. I do need to know these things, you know. Now your lesson: My father is an attorney. I might have already told you that. He is the City Attorney of Brea, Upland, Rancho Cucamonga, La Mirada, Los Angeles, and Buena Park. Which means he travels a lot and goes to court fighting for a city's water, real estate, business rights, etc. That's all I know. I've been to his office a few times, which just a lot of Lennon paintings and pictures of his children. I like it anyway.

No, I don't identify with her. Well, I do identify with Joey in a lot of ways. When that show came out, I was exactly like Joey. The mannerisms she used for that show are like mine as well. I do a lot with her Wonder Boys character too, and the Ice Storm one, although that character wasn't exactly developed in the movie. Both good films, by the way.

When I was a teenager it was Rachel from "Friends" because I was a spoiled brat (well maybe I still am), but now it's Karen from "Will and Grace". Damn proud of it.

Heh, I forget about the Zimmerman thing, and then it shocks me every time I remember it. My father just told me another cool story yesterday. Although I'm not a fan of Sonny and Cher, I found it cool. When my dad and his ex-wife were having their second daughter (my older sister, she's about 35), Sonny and Cher were having their daughter Chastity next door. My dad was hanging out with Sonny Bono, and said he was an asshole. Apparently he liked Cher though. Anyway, cool story I thought.

Aww, that's so sweet that you watched Wonder Boys just for me. Thank you! Weird story actually: the other day I was actually in the middle of getting laid (can I say that on the Ledge?) and VH1 classic was on in the background, and Led Zeppelin came on and I for a moment thought of you. VERY WEIRD. Ordinarily, it would just turn me on more. But no, I thought of you. I apologize if that story disturbs you. It was extremely inconvenient for me.

Oh, and also I would chat with you right now but I'm in the middle of a fierce battle for U2 tickets on eBay.
