Most Unwanted

Due to overwhelming popular demand I'm (reluctantly) posting the shot that was taken of me during my class's portrait shooting session. I didn't have much in the way of props so resorted to pulling the hood of the hoodie I was wearing for warmth over my head, trying to portray my most devious look. I should have known better, but I decided to share it with some of the folks that belong to my online motorcycle forum and was rewarded with classy retorts regarding my resemblance, among them Obi-Wan Kenobi, Emperor Palpatine, the Grim Reaper, Marshawn Lynch, and of course the Unabomber. I love my friends.

Your friends are on the money. You could be Theodore Kaczynski’s twin. Maybe it’s the hoodie, maybe not.

[Diane]

Oh no! this ends the tough guy image! Great portrait!

[summerfield]

goodness! i almost blurted out my sins! hey, father ron! :-D

[Elizabeth]

So brave of you!

[Babs]

You look as though you have a secret that you are trying desperately not to tell.

[Ian Norman]

Your friends must love you too Ron, to make comments like that. I can’t comment on anyone’s appearance because I have a face that’s perfect for Radio.

[Rookynook]

Wonderful lighting.

[Shanne]

You look like someone's lovable old dad trying to keep a mischievous secret to me.

Would you buy a motorcycle from a doggy looking chap like this, of course you would its clearly honest Ron, thanks for posting it for us all to see:)

[Ron]

@louannwarren Old Ted and I look even closer after one of my friends photoshopped the Unabomber's sunglasses onto my face. It's now my new profile picture on Facebook.

[Ron]

@dianen Yeah, some tough guy. I photograph flowers and live with two cats. Coincidentally I updated my profile shot. ;-)

[Ron]

@summerfield Now that made my laugh! Not sure I'm fit to hear your sins!

[Ron]

@redy4et Thanks Elizabeth. I buckled under the pressure.

[Ron]

@onewing Thanks Babs. I think you nailed it. I have all kinds of secrets that I'm trying desperately to keep bottled up! ;-)

[Ron]

@imnorman Thanks Ian. Certainly my friends love me too. It's that strange relationship where insults are regarded as an expression of love......I think.

[Ron]

@rookynook Why thankyou, an actual technical comment! ;-)

[Ron]

@shannejw You and Babs seem to have minds thinking along the same line. I really was trying to look like a bad ass.....and failed miserably it seems. :-(

[Ron]

@pcoulson I wouldn't buy anything from a guy that looks like that! I guess that's why I failed as a salesman. ;-)

Funniest thread!!

I vote for Obi-Wan Ronobie
