Real-Life Barbie? Model Created Look to Spread Beliefs

[Dio]

Okay, gather 'round my friends, while BU relates a bit of webs comedy he really just lived through.

Got a 'friend' request from a total stranger on Facebook about an hour1/2 ago.  Green1 is the only person I ever reached out to that way (because trying to lure him back, and wanted to keep track of when he was on the book posting); everyone else on my friend list came to me, including sisko, the Texas redneck teenage girl who seemed to only be looking to raise money for a car, and a recent Indonesian who has too darn many 'friends'.  (You have to x out a lot of profiles taking up space atop your personal page and be aggressive about blocking friends of 'friend's when you don't like seeing their gross tattoos -or opinions or whatever- on your timeline.  It's an American I actually knew online pre-facebook I have to do this most with, and not Green.) Foreign-sounding name, but policy is say yes to everyone who asks because you never know, and never lose the future option of unfriending if needed.

So dude messages all friendly and starts chatting me up, which is a first for stranger 'friend's.  I see he's just liked Valeria's page, which I assume is how he found me, though I guess it could be the other way around, but why I post about it here, as Val-adjacent.

I smell a rat, but no harm in answering a few questions and chatting.  It's all good.  Then this:

dear I know ur very nice Lady ..anyways do u have any boy friend..??.. Hahaha

[I guess he missed when I earlier said white guy wearing chainmail in the Friday Selfie thread to his asking to see a picture, (which should have blown his game right there, had I not been distracted multitasking)...]

Oh.  The avatar - that's Taylor Swift painted green.  I'm a man, and straight.  I just thought the avatar was funny.

I'm a US American from the southeast. You?

[Several minutes pause...]

Okay... just mis under standing...haha

It's cool.

That's what I get for wearing a pretty celebrity for a portrait.

I'm from India ..okay now I understand... Well nice to meet u jimmy

Likewise.

Serves me right for poking my face in in international strangeville looking like Orion Taylor Swift...

I have a smile on my face, yet on the inside I am having the feeling of  . I hope this story reminds people that posing as famous actors might draw unwanted attention towards yourself.

Not posing.  Made a thing for the heck of it -Vidsek's idea- liked it.  Wore it.  Never expected anyone to think a person going by "Jimmy" was a woman.

I did the attached.  She 'liked' it.

 

Repeat a word of this, and I'll deny it.

[Buster's Uncle]

Just because...

[Buster's Uncle]

Anybody seen Prophesy and Dogma?  Little of each, here...

[Buster's Uncle]

There's probably a custom faction idea somewhere in there...

The Avenging Angels - aggressive religious fanatics with a (creepy) gene-engineered twist and a bit of Flash Gordon's Hawkmen cache'.  Hmm?

[Buster's Uncle]

There were some standout pics I'd never seen of her in the gallery with the interview I posted recently.

[Rusty Edge]

That cosmic picture of her is kinda cool.

I was just about to say why don't you do yourself  Flash Gordon style....
