Bibliobloggers alter egos

I'm not going to try to name too many, just a few that seem particularly apropos.

Chris Tilling – Superman, the good guy in films, etc.

Danny Zacharias - Homer Simpson

Jim West – Paris Hilton

Mike Bird – The kid beaten with the ugly stick in that programme about horribly clever but ugly neighbours.

Brandon Wason – George Bush

James Crossley – Freddy Kruger

Ben Myers – The bad guy from the recent movie, The Avengers (acted by Ralph Fiennes)

Stephen Carlson – Brittney Spears

Mark Goodacre – Hannibal Lecture (Accent. Plus, 'it's always the quite ones', etc.)

Judy Redman - She-Ra

Josh McManaway - Pope Benedikt XVI

OK, I really think I have better things to do with my time.

Update:

Steven Harris - Grumpy Smurf (or been-rectally-examined-by-a-large-fingered-doctor-too-often Smurf. Not yet decided)

Phil Sumpter - Austin Powers' stunt codpiece

Thanks. I just about ruined my keyboard choking on my coffee. If it doesn't work anymore, I'm sending you the bill!

Hilarious

Jim said...

Rick you look a bit young to be drinking coffee. Or typing for that matter.

Anyway Tilling is WRONG again. The real list is here:

My umbrage-detectors are reading off the system.

You won't have heard the last of this.

Brandon said...

George Bush? Nicely done.

James F. McGrath said...

I feel rather left out. You could've called me Darth Sarcasm. What a missed opportunity for both you and Jim. And he said he was giving the real list. Sheesh.

Ben Myers said...

Well, I'm delighted with mine: there are worse things in life than saving the world while hanging out with a leather-clad Uma Thurman....

Phil Sumpter said...

I've always wanted to be a codpiece.

TJ said...

Mr. Tilling really needs a personal relationship with the Lord. I will say a rosary for her.

Danny Zacharias said...

love it. With the exception of the pope, Homer is the person on your list that says the funniest and most profound things, so thanks :-)

Chris Tilling said...

"there are worse things in life than saving the world while hanging out with a leather-clad Uma Thurman"

Ben, the bad guy from The Avengers.

James, I just couldn't think of one for you - but given the nature of my list, you should be thankful!

Here's one you missed:
David Allen Coe for David Allen Black. I can hear him singing,
"You don't have to call me Doktor, Doktor . . . You never even call me by my name."
