I have shoulder length straight brown hair, and a goatee and sideburns, and I *constantly* hear from people that I look like Jesus. Does anyone else get comments like this? I'm not offended, I just don't know how to respond, and I'm kind of tired of hearing that comparison. I just usually say, "yeah, I get that a lot." I'm wondering how others respond?
Jesus?!? Who's that?
I have sorta the same thing. Wavy brown hair just below shoulder and a goatee. I get the jesus thing a lot to. I think it's funny. Sometimes I'll just say "Thank you, my son." and smile.
I have same kind of hair/beard. Recently I was at a play/improv affair and some of the cast were mingling (in character) with the patrons before things got started. One of the fellows came up on my blind side and exclaimed in a room-quieting brogue: "Holy Chrrrrist! It's Jesus!" I cracked up; the rest of the audience wasn't sure whether to laugh or sit reverently (this is in Minnesota). The actor kind of bowed his head and said "Is it you?" I, of course, replied, "Yes, my son."
I recently visited a family member that I hadn't seen in years. I went to his house with both of my brothers who both have short hair. When we walked through the door, he said, "It's Manny. Moe and Jesus!!". Then he preceded to run upstairs and bring down a robe which he placed on me, we all just laughed our heads off.
Do you think this Action was funny ? I'm not very holy, but i think that somebody should not make Jokes about someone from the Bible !
Yeah, I get that too. Because of my last name being Pope however, I usually respond: "Thank you, but I'm really just the Pope..."
Madoc Pope
Gee, and I thought that a goatee look Satanic!
"YOU know what Jesus looked like?!" Try not to sound sarcastic when you say it.
the three names they called me was hey jesus, hey caveman, and even hey Hells Angel!
Here's a real caveman!
Just say Thanks! Consider it a compliment! I would.
