Putting another name to a face

Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Lindsay from Majikthise and I’ll be guest-blogging chez Berube until the 17th of July.

At first I wasn’t sure I could do this. What qualified me to guest-blog for a professor of literature?

Luckily, Amanda of Pandagon saved the day with late-breaking Scientific Proof that I look like Sylvia Plath.

So, I’m good to go.

  1. Well. I look like Karl Marx, and he didn’t even ask me.

    Maybe he mistook me for Donald Rumsfeld. I hate when that happens.

  2. Plath was much taller, though, if you’re looking for a way to distance yourself.

    Then again, as epistemology implies in the Pandagon comments thread, you have the best excuse for not cooking ever.

    And as long as Chris Clarke doesn’t look like Ted Hughes, we should be able to get through the next couple of weeks here okay.

  3. Remember, Friday is music day.

    My girlfriend says I don’t look like anyone famous, but I think I might look a tad like Charles Simic, who is not all that famous.

  4. Frighteningly enough, I look very much like Lois Ames.

  6. You ARE cute (Lindsay Beyerstein that is, not Chris Clarke), but I’m really not getting the resemblance to Sylvia Plath.

  7. I liked the guy who called you the “Lesbian Elvis”...makes more sense than this Sylvia Plath stuff…

  9. You’re much cuter than Sylvia Plath.  And, I hope, more mentally stable as well.

  10. I look like some dude.

  11. Pretty.

    If you wanted to be nasty, you could prove the resemblance by posting a picture of yourself with your head in an oven.

    But don’t do that.

  12. Wow, that last comment I made could read as weirdly, personally hostile, i think. Please understand that I had no such intention and have absolutely no ill will towards Lindsay.

    Ick. Sorry.

  13. No offense taken, Jon. I’ve been getting oven jokes all week.

  14. You don’t look tragic enough.  Sorry.
