I'm guessing "Not played by me" is a big criteria.
But he was just playing the bi card...strange man.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Do I look like Beyonce? I uploaded four pictures into this face recognition software (stolen from Victor), and Beyonce was #1 once, and in the top 4 the other three times. Also appearing often was Janet Jackson and Charlize Theron. It's pretty cool -- it obviously knows I'm black...inasmuch as "know" applies, and blonde. Most of my matches were one or the other.
Thanks, ita.
Your friend,
John Wayne

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
The software couldn't recognize a face on two of the pictures I uploaded—not a good sign. James Horner (who?) was my closest match at 64%, and one picture gave me a very flattering 62% matchup with Russel Crowe. But the frequent appearance of Andie McDowell was troubling, though I'd imagine it would be more so for her than for me.

Yeah, that software is cool-sounding, but 1, couldn't identify faces very easily-- even in pictures that were cropped to show only a face, and 2, seemed really pose and nose dependent, i.e., all the matches had in common was either the facial expression or the nose.
Bob's first match was Meryl Streep. We both got Fred Hoyle. I don't know who that is, but it's been awhile since he's seen the good side of 60.
ETA: for anyone out there who hasn't met me or Bob yet, just think of this guy: [link]

On the worst of the pictures I uploaded, it suggested Michael Jackson. I mean, really. It was the worst of the set, but that bad??? Yikes. Funnily, that was the only time it suggested any men for me. I mean, given my history of being mistaken for the rougher sex.
eta: That's funny that it didn't pick up faces in yours. In fact, in one of mine it also picked up the face of the guy sitting at the table behind me, and suggested matches for him too. It was very consistent for me. Although I don't look like Kate Winslet.

Uploaded a new picture.
Me: Ewan McGregor.
Bob: Elton John.
Either the software doesn't know how to deal with glasses, or I really am dating the son of Richard Avedon, Primo Levi, Steven Soderbergh, Eddie Murphy, Elvis Costello, Keith Richards and Elton John.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Apparently it thinks I'm Gorbachev.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
ita, they are about to have an emergency landing on Mile High, and I actually care.
I blame you for this.

I can't stop with this. It's so horrifying. What do James Cameron, Zhang Zhiyi, Ozzy Osbourne, Georges Simenon, Sylvestor Stallone, Eric Idle, Mariah Carey, Sofia Coppola, and Emma Watson all have in common? MY FACE!
