Mazerino the Hero

Have you ever been told you look like someone famous? It can be flattering, I guess, if that person is Colin Ferrell or Mariah Carey, but it's no fun when you get Will Ferrell or Drew Carey.

In high school, our cafeteria chef used to call me Mr. Bean. In college, I got Michael Imperioli (Christopher Moltisanti from Sopranos). Now, at least 10 random strangers have told me I look like Sylar from NBC's Heroes. I personally don't think I look very much like any of them (apart from the prominent brow). Most recently, I was boarding my CTA bus to go home when the driver stopped me and asked, "You ever see that show Heroes? You look like that guy Sylus [sic]." He proceeded to laugh and laugh and shouted "Goodbye Sylus" to me as I left. What do you think? Sound off in the comments.

Just for fun, I've whipped up some simi-lebrity pics for Fadilicious:

And Al Waris:

Do you marginally resemble a pseudo-celebrity? Leave a comment or send a pic to camelsandelephants[at]gmail[dot]com, and we'll include it in a future post.

Absolutely, without a doubt. Sylar to a T.

Fadi and Roshan's look-a-likes are dead-on. Awesome.

I don't know who I look like, but can you find me a look-a-like??

I think you are better looking than Sylar. (See, I'm still doing my admin duties while on leave) I have been told in the past that I look like Ruthie from Real World Hawaii. I'm not really proud of that one, it actually bothers me quite a bit.

You and Sylar could be brothers.

I get Lucy Liu, Lisa Ling, Mulan, Pocahontas, and the dreaded Sandra Oh.

The worst was when someone told me I look like Sai.
