I work with SKELETOR

Alright, next left turn: have you ever been compared to a cartoon character because of physical or personality reasons?

Towards the end of middle school, this one guy in my class started calling me Doug as in Doug Funny from the cartoon Doug. I don't think he meant it in a derogatory way. The name spread quickly though. The guy who dubbed me, myself and two other guys formed a band to perform for the 8th grade talent show. One of the names we kicked around was The Artists fomerly known as Doug. In high school, I ran for senior class president and used an image I found of Doug playing the guitar as my pin. I too play guitar.

Anyway, that is my story. Many others in many different places have made the Doug connection, but it was this guy in middle school who was the first.
 
gus-gus from cinderella. not because i remind people of a fat mouse with a speech impediment, but because my name is gus. people who come up with this one and think they are being original are real wise-asses. now, if they were clever they'd call me octavian. (the mouse's actual name before his friends dub him gus-gus)
 
I haven't been compared to a cartoon character, but people compare me to Miss Piggy because of my belligerence and voice. When I get pissed, apparently I sound an awful lot like her.

that and you're attracted to frogs right, or not just frogs any other species except your own, that's it I'm calling all those animal rights activists right now, damn pervert
 
i had a pet frog once. it lived for about 5 years, which i'm guessing is about as long as a frog was ever gonna live. pretty neat, i guess. but sort of creepy cause he was one of those "african clawed toads/frogs". i dont see how it could be a toad cause it had to live underwater all it's life. oh yes the creepy part was that he looked like a little man under there. and his eyes were just sort of those dead fish eyes. and he was slimy if i ever had to try to get him out to clean the tank. but other than that he was a cool pet.
 
My family has had bizarre luck with pets. My first dog was hit by a car soon after we got her. My sister and I each got a cat when we moved to NC. That was around 17 years ago. Impressive for cats. My sister also had a fish that she caught in one of those public swimming pool escapades. While the ones her friends had died in a matter of days, hers lived for like 3 years. Trey bizarre.
 
I'm glad it all worked out in the end? true story about dogs, we used to live about 3 blocks from a chinese buffet place, and for sometime dogs were disappearing from the neighborhood, I know I lost one, funny thing about 6 months later the buffett place gets closed down, turns out some health inspector found a dead dog in their freezer, and no I never ate their
