What Movie Character Best Describes You?
Have you ever had someone say a TV or movie character could have been based upon you? This came up recently came up in a pm with SG. In my mind, I picture myself as Mark Harmon's character in NCIS. Unfortunately, most of my subordinates swear the Sergeant Major (played by Sam Elliot) in "We were Soldiers" is me in real life.
A couple of quotes from my character: "Gentlemen prepare to defend yourselves!" "What are you, the fucking weather man?"

2 alcoholic characters and a mean ole son of a bitch. We're not a very pleasant lot are we?
I picture Gravdigr as Bluto in Animal House. Is Merc really Trapper John or perhaps Duke from MASH (the book, not the TV series)?

UG is totally Charles from MASH (series, not the movie) You can make your own guess as to who is Hotlips.

In reality: Cliff Clavin |

I've been told I am "The Dude" from Big Lebowski, although it's been years since I was in top form for that role.

I use to get "Major Dad" because I sort of looked like him back in the 90's, now all I get is Col. Kurtz.

A guy I bartended with back in the day called me Diane. He was, of course, Woody.

In my mind: Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow's character) from Iron Man/Iron Man 2.
In reality: "This one time, at band camp..." |
