Yesterday I caught the tube with my housemate's doppelgänger
I saw him waiting on the platform and went over to talk to him. I'd literally got as far as the "H" in "Hey" before I got a close look at him and realised it wasn't my housemate, but to a casual observer the two people would be identical. Apparently this happens to him a lot, so maybe he's got a really common face and build or something.

I bumped into my own double
Almost literally - walked around a corner and nearly collided. We looked up and did a comedy double-take.

His name was Dick. Mine isn't (though I have been called one).

A friend introduced us to his new girlfriend, who was the spit of his (recently) ex wife. He couldn't see it, though everyone else was thinking "replacement, much?"

why would he want to go out with his ex wife's spit?
saliva isn't well known for being a good conversationalist, or good in bed...

saliva
may not be good in bed, but it's jolly handy.

I had a double at school, a few years older than me
He had the unfortunate nickname "Pob", meaning that I spent a good few years being called "little Pob" :(

Ha! If I'd have gone to school with mine, I'd have been Little Dick
So count yourself lucky.
