But did anyone mistake you for lesbian lovers?

This Christmas the liquor store mistook my BFF and I for a lesbian couple and tried to give us a discount. But, because I forgot my liscense, and they asked if we were together, we thought they were going to proof us! It was pretty funny.

Also, Jack Black does not suck! As per The Holiday, where he is adorable. And School of Rock. And High Fidelity. (these are the oly Jack Black movies I have seen.)

I cannot work out how or why my sister and I were mistaken for twins so often on holiday.

My sister and I got this a lot for some reason when I was in high school and she was in college. We really don't look alike besides both being tall with brown hair. We have totally different shapes and coloring.

My favorite was the time someone asked us how many months apart we are, and, without missing a beat, my sister answered, "72".

We do not look alike. But we got constant double takes. People are sloppy.

People can't seem to agree on whether my sister and I look alike. Some people say that we look exactly the same except for our coloring, and other people say that we don't even look like we're related. We seem to get more people saying we don't look related during the summer, when I have a tan.

I got referred to as my brother's wife, with his wife standing right there, again.

Oh- I totally forgot my mother got mistaken for my uncle's (her brother's) wife at his colonoscopy!!

No lesbianity to our faces, at least.

I have soft features, and my sister is angular. We both look young, but she looks...handsome. She looks like my father. I look more girlish than that, looking like my mother. We are the same size and height and hairstyle, but she's a few shades darker than I am, and leaner and more muscular.

ita, people are kinda dumb and not very observant. I had a friend with twins, boy and girl, she often got asked if they were identical.

ION, soldering while wearing bifocals is so much easier than without. For folks who think they might need bifocals, I say, just bite the bullet.

I've had people remark that I look just like my mother. We're both caucasian with brown hair, but that's about the extent of the resemblance. I wonder if these people would say the same thing if she'd instead adopted a child of a different ethnicity.

(I will cop to 90% of my personality being derived from hers, however.)

I have a question. Where would I go for theme christmas ornaments? Anyone have any ideas? Pier One/World Market was kind of a bust, and I can't think of a place that would have a good selection.
