Lol. I'm trying, but none of the ones I want more are ever available. Vivienne, Aveline, Shale, Sten, Wynne...
(Also, I'm replacing Anders with Seb there. Super blue eyes are a fair trade for blonde hair)
Since the only two male LIs in DAO were blond, and Fenris is sort of blonde, until Seb, there hadn't BEEN any male LIs who weren't blond until Seb. Sheesh, that's a self-fulfilling attack on anyone who romances Cullen because it's almost a given that you romanced the prior two

Yeah. Just part and parcel of the Cullen fan hate. same same, not even different.
You could have politely said to him...
"I am sorry to bother you. I cannot help but notice you look exactly like a character from a popular game I play. Do you mind if I take a photo for my friends to see?"
Well at least that is what I would have done.
The thing is, my BFF did the explaining while laughing to her death. And... that guy know DA:O & people had already told him that he looks like Alistair.
Actually my BFF even got the error to say he looks like Cullen (she didn't play Dragon Age), the guy responded with something like "Cullen? Someone told me I look like Alistair". FML.
Psh! Flirting is fine or appraising beauty of another that is not yours, well, it's fine as long as you don't act on it. Words are nothing, but action is everything. Lol, still envious!
Oooh lucky! Whenever I see a hot guy checking me out I'm with my b/f...who gives off the "bouncer" persona...so yeah...
Whenever I'm alone, I get the middle-aged preverts who just stare at teh bewbs.
You don't want to be in my position. I was a mess.
Psshhh... You mean talk coherently around someone who looks like Ali? Or around good-looking guys in general? That achievement I have not yet unlocked. If the real me were the Quizzy, and would be talking to Cullen, the romance would have never happened. He probably would have started avoiding me due to the beatific grin splitting my face every time he'd be around
True! But your hubby looks good looking from the portrait, nah achievement unlocked already then? 
My bff had to go to school for two years in order to work her old job with early childhood development - she made minimum wage. I have a high school degree and lack of college hasn't even been mentioned and my boss is pushing me to post into a higher tiered position, yet I'm perfectly happy making what I make (it's enough, we'll leave it at that). The company I work for is all about actual experience over degrees. Yet my bff couldn't break minimum wage and they made her go to school for two years? And now she can't find any jobs in the field without going to school for another two years. Yeah, that makes a whole lot of sense. She ditched her career with teaching and is now thinking about nursing. But like me, she's in her 30's and at some point she needs to just work with the bed she made or else she's never going to climb that wonderful ladder of work life.
Don't even get me started about what I think about college in general for most career goals.
I just get so angry when I see so many people in debt for their whole lives over it and either don't even use the degree(s) they get or can't find a job at all.
Oh yes the whole "College thing". Yes, I'd say I fall into the category that this peeves me off.
My husband went to college and graduated as an English Major. However he never even touched that field. He ended up becoming an Computer Technician and is very well paid. Not to mention his field is transferring him to Arizona, which we will be moving there in a month. Ahh yes, warm weather all year round.
The point is those who go to college graduate and either cannot find a job they majored in or they end up taking a career that has nothing to do with their degree.
However I shall stop here because if I continue, I will end up ranting.
<sheepishly walks way>
So I found this:
http://tvtropes.org/...onAgeCharacters
Someone took the time to explain about the characters and Cullen.
Well, duh, I read Cullen's and it was certainly interesting.
Sooooo...did anybody notice my screenshot next to Cullen's DA:I Tropes????
True! But your hubby looks good looking from the portrait, nah achievement unlocked already then?
Nope. That's just dumb luck I do not comprehend to this day. Or maybe it's because he is not shy at all. Not like Cullen
Oooh lucky! Whenever I see a hot guy checking me out I'm with my b/f...who gives off the "bouncer" persona...so yeah...
Whenever I'm alone, I get the middle-aged preverts who just stare at teh bewbs.
I have that...
My response is usually, "Why hello there pervert. <flicks em off...then walks away>
Yeah I have a bit of a temper. 
Sooooo...did anybody notice my screenshot next to Cullen's DA:I Tropes????
Yep. I know that is your screen-shot. I also must tell you I have been finding your photos popping up every where. I would sit here and list all the places, but that would take me a couple of hours. >_>

OMG! That's your screenie!!! Did they ask for your permission?!

I found someone on Tumblr that took one of mine, did a quick edit, then had the gall to add their own watermark on it. I contacted them and they never responded. What can I do - it's going to happen. It just ticks me right the #@$& off when I see one of my screenshots getting tons of likes that doesn't point back to me.
OMG! That's your screenie!!! Did they ask for your permission?!
Of course not.... 
All I can ask is that if you guys notice something like that on Tumblr or elsewhere, please feel free to say something in the notes and tie it back to me.

No. The places I stumble upon, never mention Mel nor even Thank her. I remember a few days ago I stumbled upon one of Mel's screenies. I think it was..Tumblr? Anyways someone had one of Mel's and claimed it was there's.
Not trying to start a war about this, just think its rather tacky there are people who would stoop that low.

Trust me. I would had wanted to have been in your position, but then again...book, man, booooooooook, maaaaaaaaaaan....choices.
Yeah. Just part and parcel of the Cullen fan hate. same same, not even different.
I did prefer when the fan hate seemed to be primarily of the "your crush is a terrible person, love yourself" variety instead of the "you all are basic as hell, go drink a Pumpkin Spice Latte" variety, though. Seems like Blackwall's fanbase gets our old hate now and we get to share with Alistair's fanbase. (I know, I know, that confession is actually pretty old. What's always puzzled me about it is the assertion that Anders is the obvious "pretty" choice; I consider him the least physically attractive of the DA2 LIs by far and I'm not even interested in women.)

The lost time I offered whacking someone...I got reprimanded by R2, lol, but whacking time?

No...No...No Zarro....that is my job....go sit in the corner and I dunno play with yourself or something.
You know what they all look a lot a like which is suprising lol now all three are put together. That would be entirely funny to me.LOL! Too funny! I never thought about this. Not to mention they all were apart of The Chantry at some point.

Yeah, I see it often too. Some are nice and add credit after I say something, some never respond. All I can ask is that if you notice one then please feel free to say something in the notes and tie it back to me. That's why I started adding a watermark to the character shots, but that doesn't spot people from cropping or editing it out.
Edit for ToP - this is the one that folks seem to love to steal:
Holy sh*t I was just thinking about what would I do if I bumped into a Cullen lookalike! My husband said the other day that even though he doesn't have a face model, the lead in charge of his face must have seen a construction guy or a lawyer or someone somewhere and said "that's gonna be Cullen". Now I'm hoping to bump into himI saw an Alistair in the train this morning. That made me nearly choked to death... The guy who's in front of me for the whole 2 hours ride. I tried to take a pic of him and then he realized that and started teasing me so... mission failed.
He started to ask for my number with that smile but then I chickened out & became a stuttering mess...
FML.
I'm like 3 hours from Montreal so it could happen?!?

I would've unabashedly asked the guy to smile for the camera because he's a doppelganger. And then made up a number... 1-800-my-cully
Would you believe I came across a guy at Stop n' Shop that I actually had to look at twice (seriously look) to make sure he wasn't Greg Ellis (no I didn't hear the guy talk, lol)? What really made it weird is that he was staring at me the whole time so he probably thought I was checking him out.

Well there is a saying, "Everyone has a twin some where in the world."
No...No...No Zarro....that is my job....go sit in the corner and I dunno play with yourself or something.
Oh you...you...*sighs* You're the best!
Of course not....

D**n, people can be jerks. I'll let you know if I see anything, but I avoid Tumblr, at least.
Well there is a saying, "Everyone has a twin some where in the world."
So what you're saying is that I just need to find Jensen Ackles' twin?
