What would/will you do if/when you finally meet your doppelganger?

Would you buy him a beer? Would you cap him? Would you try to assume his identity to escape the Village you're held captive in, only thwarted at the last minute by a trick question as your helicopter is about to leave?

What are you gunna do?

I said "Ned?"

He sits next to me in my Negotiation class. I eschewed all of the above in favor of pleasant conversation.

I already have done, back in 1998 or therabouts, in a horrible nightclub in Exeter. Bloke looked exactly like me, there was mutual amazement all round. He bought me a beer. I bought him one back. I tried it on with his girlfriend and failed.

if I met my doppelganger, I'd be just about to die anyway.

Duel to the death, Highlander style obv.

(there can only be one!)

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 26 March 2004 16:11 (twenty-two years ago)

I have met the doppleganger of my girlfriend's brother, it's uncanny. One's a guitarist and one's a drummer, so the brother should either start a band with him or have him assassinated.

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 26 March 2004 16:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Apparently if you come face to face with your doppleganger one of you will die. Guess that doesn't apply if you are a twin though.

even freakier: TWIN doppelgangers!

time for a poorly-written Star Trek fight scene!

(and jarring horn-use!)

― Kingfish Hypercolor (Kingfish), Friday, 26 March 2004 16:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Run at her, as fast as I could so we would merge together.

But first I would check that I wasn't mistaking the shiny reflective surface of the cheese counter for my doppelganger, as that would be a foolish mistake.

Ah, Bill Bailey.

― Sarah (starry), Friday, 26 March 2004 16:15 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm almost sure that will NEVER EVER happen

Supposedly, according to various accounts, i have like 3 doppelgangers. there was this one kid in college who looked just like me and my roomates would hunt him down and try and hang out with him. i only hung out with him once but it was kinda odd. i dont remember much of what was said because i was probably down two pints of jaegermeister and red bull.

needless to say, i did not die.

― bill stevens (bscrubbins), Friday, 26 March 2004 18:12 (twenty-two years ago)

I will say "Hello, Mr Teeny."

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 26 March 2004 18:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I would attach him to the fulcrum.

― 57 7th (calstars), Saturday, 27 March 2004 00:16 (twenty-two years ago)

I would run diagonally away, pull myself up, turn around, do a running jump, and walk over to the lever sticking out of the wall. I'd pull it, which would open a little trap door behind me filled with BURNING LAVA oooo. Then as fast as I could I'd jump off, run to the other side of the room, pull myself up, turn around, take a running jump, and run towards the far corner. My doppelganger, mirroring my every move, would fall into the hole, and burn alive.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Saturday, 27 March 2004 00:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Clobber him over the head with a wrench. "Sweet dreams, doppelganger!"

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Saturday, 27 March 2004 00:27 (twenty-two years ago)

There's a dude at my job who looks just like Ned only he's taller/bulkier. I am tempted to harangue him about Kevin Shields.

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Saturday, 27 March 2004 00:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Tracer LOL

― 57 7th (calstars), Saturday, 27 March 2004 00:34 (twenty-two years ago)

there were these two preppy twins at my college. i worked on campus,s o they recognized me. they'd always see me and go "heyyyyyyyyy buddddddyyyyy....." Just the way they said it was so freaky. my roomies and i figured it out. we think they actually used to be one person, but were split down the center like a starfish and formed the rest of their bodies. i always thought they were trying to split me.

Der Doppelgänger Heine

Still ist die Nacht, es ruhen die Gassen,
In diesem Hause wohnte mein Schatz;
Sie hat schon längst die Stadt verlassen,
Doch steht noch das Haus auf demselben Platz.
Da steht auch ein Mensch und starrt in die Höhe
Und ringt die Hände vor Schmerzensgewalt,
Mir graust es, wenn ich sein Antlitz sehe,
Der Mond zeigt mir meine eigne Gestalt.
Du Doppelgänger, du bleicher Geselle!
Was affst du nach mein Leibesleid?
Das mich gequält auf dieser Stelle
So manche Nacht, in alter Zeit?

Stil is the night, at rest the narrow-streets,
in this house lived my sweatheart
she has already long the city left,
but stands still the house in the-same square.
There stands also a man and stares into the heights,
And wrings the hands at pains-power.
Me terrifies it, when I his face see,
The moon shows me my own form.
You double, you pale fellow
Why ape you (after) my love’s-pain,
that me tortured on this spot
so many nights, in olden times?

See, somehow I knew that this was already posted. (I said, "Dan?" myself.)

xpost
see, that movie is the doppelganger of "Poison Ivy"

― Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Saturday, 27 March 2004 03:25 (twenty-two years ago)

But with weirdly gratuitous Breakfast at Tiffany's references!

― Tep (ktepi), Saturday, 27 March 2004 03:26 (twenty-two years ago)

the nasty, obv.

― Skottie, Saturday, 27 March 2004 16:13 (twenty-two years ago)

― mandee, Saturday, 27 March 2004 17:19 (twenty-two years ago)

If I met my doppelganger, I'd get it on w/him!!

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Saturday, 27 March 2004 17:21 (twenty-two years ago)

I'd crack a load of fat jokes at him.

Employ him and shag him, if you are Tom Cruise. ( See Tom Cruise: gay or straight? thread)
