What am I like?

I was just thinking that, having been on the forum for a few weeks now, I have started to pick up the different personalities and habits of the regular posters. Lemming actually suggested that he was going to start a thread where people had to guess what each other looked like, but he hasn't got round to it yet so I'm doing it instead (although I really should point out that he takes the credit for it, otherwise he'll never make me a cup of tea ever again).

So one option is to guess. The other option, if guessing proves too difficult, is for people simply to tell everyone else what they look like: thin/lardy, hair colour, beanpole/pintsize etc.

I'm going to start off by asking if anyone can guess my appearance. I want to you to give the following:
- hair colour
- height (short, medium, or tall will do)
- build (fat, slim, muscle-bound etc)

I obviously think that I sound like a tall, dark, muscle-bound hunka-hunka burnin' love (for the ladies), but you may have other preconceptions about me!

ps. If you happen to know what someone looks like, don't guess - let everyone else flap around hopelessly wide of the mark for a while first!

pps. Lemming would like it to be known that we are not gay lovers. We are two straight men who happen to live in the same house (with other straight men). Not that we're homophobes or anything ...

OK, guess away, little buddies!

Interesting post, and I'm sure it will get some very interesting replies.

I will answer your question, but only if I'm promised no one will take offence, my imagination is a bit wild

Go on then. I get enough grief from the kids at school, so I'm immune to getting offended now!

Hmmmm, a student. After driving past Sheffield Uni at chucking out time (2.30pm) it would be easy to shout "freaks" like I did from the car the other day(followed by "get out of the road")

OK, tall, thin (could that be malnourished?), shortish hair, cut badly (a la kaiser chiefs)

Zainub. I'll give you 'brownish' for the hair - it's brown. The other bits? I don't look like Rob Key - no big round saucepan of a face for me, I'm afraid. 'Healthy' build? Don't you mean 'eats VERY well' / verging on 'lardy'!

Little Richie: my student days are now behind me, so I'm definitely not Kaiser Chiefs. And my hair is superbly cut. I do it myself, on my bedroom floor. Although malnourished is close enough to the 'athletically slim' that I prefer to think of myself.

OK, height?

5'11". Dont ask for it in metres ! I'm guessing you're in your early twenties so you are athlectically slim now, but give it time, you'll soon yourself looking in changing room mirrors in alarm thinking a fatty has wondered in, only to find you've turned inot a lard-****.

A cautionary tale indeed !

I love Rob Key actually, I like to imagine half of my virtual friends are as healthy as he! I prefer calling a Key like built healthy if that's what you are looking for.

A wonderful way with words! Does this fondness for Key-like 'healthy' builds explain your admiration of Inzi?

I'm not as much as 5'11. And I think I've got a chance of avoiding the mid-age Lard Metamorphosis. My build is like my Dad's, and he's slim and still playing cricket at nearly 63 years old. So I've got hope!
