Hair

Kibo points out that, contrary to resemblances noted elsewhere, my face is actually not very similar to that of Chris Elliott. This is true. However, I've noticed that many consider people to resemble one another mostly on the basis of hairstyles and hair and skin color, and that's clearly what's involved here-- and probably also with the comparisons to Ricky Schroeder, Larry Bird, and even Gary Busey that I got in earlier years. I think the Busey was primarily on the basis of a haircut that I had happened to get right before a bunch of us saw Lethal Weapon, in which Busey played the Psychotic Henchman Who Is Immune To Pain. It was Busey's exact haircut in the movie.

As I recall, it was you who said that Kibo resembled Able Lincoln because of his beard and his East Coast style of rap. Or do I mis-remember?

Didn't say I was immune. Besides, he doesn't actually look like Lincoln, he looked like that really bad Lincoln impersonator.

(But I'll admit that the Guy Who Looked Like Dick Cavett did so largely because of his Cavett-like hairstyle.)
