George Harrison from the White Album photo 25 years ago, then later Kenny Logins 15 years ago. I've had people ask for my autograph thinking I was both. These days? Um.... no one really...but 20 something women still say I'm cute for a buck.

Ironically I did have the misfortune of being dragged to a Chippendales show for a friends birthday party a few years back. It was as horrible an experience as I imagined it would be, and I couldn't wait to get the fuck outta there. And of course all of the oiled up gay dancers could sense my discomfort, so they made bee-lines to me to wiggle their junk in my lap as I recoiled in pure horror. I'm still in therapy about it.
Part of the reason I use the Shaggy avatar is because numerous people over the years, who all didn't know each other, thought I looked like him, or at least thought I had his basic philosophy. As for real people, one of my old bosses thought I looked like Abraham Lincoln, but someone I used to work with thought I looked like John Malkovich.
A few people used to say Reggie Miller around 2000, but I'm darker and my teeth aren't that bad.
The one I think really fits is a younger Raphael Saadiq, from back in the Tony Toni Tone days. Once there was a FB fad in which people put pictures of celebs they looked like. I put one up of him...and no one knew it wasn't me: I had to tell people.
Jeff Bridges...what's weird is it's been transitional. I was Baker brother when younger, then Lebowski with my hair long....then lately, Rooster Cogburn when I let my graying beard get scraggly.
Like most I don't see it, I'm not nearly as big as he is....but it's been commented on by many over the years.
I keep one not so good porno on my hard drive because the male actor is a dead ringer for my son. My daughter has seen a non sex part of the flick and agrees. He of course denies it. :)
Like @vincemichaels, I regularly get told I look like a cop. A couple of years back I was at a divey club I'd been a regular at for over a year. The bartender, who I'd known the whole time, leaned across the bar and started asking me how to handle some situation she'd gotten herself into with the law. I stopped her and told her I had no idea what she should do. She says, "But aren't you a cop?"
Now I sometimes wonder if the extras I got at that club (and continue to get at clubs in "non-extras Portland") are because the staff doesn't want to stop someone they think is a cop.

Have also been told I look like John Elway a bit.
But probably been told the most that I look like a smaller version of 80s rocker George Thorogood (I"m 5"10 190 lbs and he looks 6 ft+ and 200 lbs+)
Can't vouch for that as I've never seen a male stripper. Might ask some of the ladies here, lopaw excluded. :)

I can imagine the discomfort, but therapy? I hope that was a joke.

I would have thought that you'd recognize my off-kilter sense of humor by now ;)

Nobody famous.
But I get asked if I'm FBI or CIA all the time or some type of government official.

I'm in my late '30s.

But since I didn't see Star Wars I'm not sure if it's a compliment or insult, I'll assume the former.
