What other regular MNers look like. Shallow? yes. Can I help it? no.

And I wonder how accurate these images are?

let's hear them then - can't decide whether YABU or not until you spill . . .

Knickers0nMyHead · 13/04/2010 00:29

Spill first.....

wastwinsetandpearls · 13/04/2010 00:39

I have images of all of you, having seen some of you on facebook I am quite accurate.

I am not sure if I live up to/down to expectations.

the thing that surprised me most (from another site, but would apply equally here) is how people sounded.
Now if I think about it I know everyone will have different accents, but I just didn't think about it.
Very odd.

BitOfFun · 13/04/2010 01:11

I'll start by being specific then: I imagine Pagwatch to speak in a BBC accent and look like a young Felicity Kendall.

MitchyInge · 13/04/2010 01:16

people here have accents?

Nemain · 13/04/2010 01:18

Well some of MN got outed on the other thread - A face to a name... but I have illustrations for most of the regular posters in my mind.

Said illustrations will stay private though, as I am usually wrong!

coralanne · 13/04/2010 07:25

Mitchyinge LOVE your profile pics.

foureleven · 13/04/2010 08:56

MadamDeathstare - I live NEAR to Bracknell, I most definitely do not have a Bracknell accent! ;)

I cant really explain what I think people look like... I just have a clear image of everyone in my head!

Like when you fancy a guy on the phone then meet him and he looks like the ugly cousin of liam gallagher!

I am rubbish at trying to imagine what other MNetters look like. I know what some look like through MN, but other than that I am clueless!

MitchyInge · 13/04/2010 09:51

thanks coralanne

there are probably millions now

DramaInPyjamas · 13/04/2010 10:00

I don't have images as such, but I do have voices and accents going through my mind when I read posts. Regardless of not knowing where people actually come from or sound like.

hocuspontas · 13/04/2010 10:04

I have no imagination! I just assume everyone looks and sounds like Justine and live in vast houses on the right side of town.

(Nothing like me I hasten to add)

AnyFucker · 13/04/2010 10:08

I second MitchyInge's profile pics are fab

addictedtothefirsttrimester · 13/04/2010 10:09

well i imagine bitoffun to have a very long black cape and look like a very glamorous vampire (because her name always reminds me of her haloween name) so i dont think i'm right there, unless you really are a vampire?

haha that must be interesting! I actually dont think I could spot a Bracknell accent.. I just have a completely unfounded, irrational and down right unfair snobbery about Bracknell.. I think its because I went to Apres night club once

Ooohhh... do me!

foureleven · 13/04/2010 15:19

And me....

foureleven · 13/04/2010 15:21

I agree but mitchyinge... why the long face?

(GROAN emoticon)

I always think you are tall with long legs, foureleven... 'legs eleven', I suppose

foureleven · 13/04/2010 15:44

Haha I am. In fact that is hilarious because today a man in my building, not even a colleague said to me 'goodness, do those legs ever end?' (sexist prick, I gave him a glare and wished badly that I had a good come back. Have since come up with 'yes, they do. At my genitals')

ok tethersend I think you look a bit like Jane Horrocks.. but younger..?
