Happens quite a bit actully
I get friends of mine say to me of an evening 'I saw you in town today, I waved/said hi/ etc/ but you must not have seen/heard me' When I was in fact at home ALL day.

The other week I was in the catering department at college (not the campus I go to) and the tutor there and I had this conversation:

Me: Hi, we're here to take some photos for the prospectus, that ok?
Him: Now where do I recognize you from?
Me: Um, I dunno
Him: Oh I know what it is, you look like her from the Scissor Sisters!
Me: heh, really? I'll take that as a complement.
Him: You Should do, I fancy the pants off her!

and there was a guy I went to primary school with in the class!


Also, ages ago when i was in year 8 or so I was on the bus going home. Said bus goes past a pub in one of the less elegant areas of town. A guy, clearly a little worse for wear gets on and sit next to ME (I always get the nutter, but that's another story). After a little bit of conversation where he weirds me out with insinuating comments (bearing in mind I'm about 12), he the then INSISTS that he recognizes me. He's convinced that I'm some famous actress and asks me repeatedly for my autograph. I'd never heard of her.

Oh, and an acquaintance once accused me of being in porn. It was scary, she did look just like me.


The ladies love a bit of length.
