Describe yourself......physically.

[Daemon Sophic]

No photos of yourself allowed in this thread (more on that later).
Also, please be honest. ​

I, for one, won’t post a picture of myself on a forum for multiple reasons (mostly due to my employment), though I would like to. So I thought it would be interesting for people to simply give a physical description of themselves. The ‘Post yer Pics’ threads seem to fill with a half dozen folks, along with a dozen more who “oooh” and “aaah” about the few who post, or their dogs, or their kids.......its a lot like Facebook. And it doesn’t address things like your height & weight, voice/accent, attitude, energy in a conversation, etc....

So for those of us who are a little more secretive, let people know what they could expect if we ever had a big RF get-together. Again, please don’t lie, although you can flatter yourself if appropriate.
If you MUST post a pic, then find a random pic online of someone who is fairly close in appearance to you.....but is not you. And from what little I know of RFers.....no shirtless Brad Pitt, or Sung Hi Lee photos should be present either.
Here goes...

I’m a 6 ft 3 inch, 225 pound (100 kg), 50 year old white guy. Clean shaven (most days), with short-cropped brown & grey hair, a growing bald spot on the top back of my head, and I have grey/blue eyes. You’ll either find me in good pants, white button-down collared shirt (usually with tie).....or in t-shirt, sneakers, and tan short cargo-pants, looking like the classic white dad.
I have good posture when walking, but often slump some in a chair. In recent years I am gaining more crow’s feet wrinkles around the eyes, but my motor-cycle tire “love handles” are shrinking to thinner bicycle tire size. I have clean hands and nails; no piercings, and no tattoos. I will not even stand near a smoker, and I seldom drink wine or beer.
I talk with a moderately deep, confident voice that can be made to be rumbling, and I have a firm grasp of the (American)English language, but no other. I’ve had many strangers tell me that my voice would be great for radio. I’m quiet at first, but can get “talky” if the subject and people are right. I laugh easily, and smile more than average.

I will add a “roughly like me” photo and an interesting related note later on.

-I have never heard of Sung Hi Lee so I had to look her up
-I would not discourage anyone from posting pics of Sung Hi Lee or a reasonable facsimilie

In colder months I let my beard grow so to help with the cold- I spend a lot of time outdoors, in the warmer months I trim it pretty close but never shave it completely.

I am nearly as tall as I am wide. Not quite round. My head is 27.32% the size of my body. I tend to wear white fluffy clouds on most days. As big as my head is, strangely it is only 1/81 of the mass of my body.

I've been seriously stalked by two people in my life, and so I'm a bit leery (some might even fairly say, "irrational", about giving out any personal information that has a remote chance of identifying me. Hence, I won't go into any physical description more than to say, "Think average or near average in most key ways". No tattoos or piercings, not even a birthmark.

I do have a voice that while usually dull and unexciting can -- if I properly warm it up for about 30 to 45 minutes -- mysteriously turn into a golden, melodious radio voice. That is, a voice a slight majority of people in my experience would assume was the voice of a radio host.

Are you suggesting that you are a cumulonimbus cloud?

No I only wear those. Although some might say they are really a part of me.

Posted two (my current Avatar is an older picture of an old hairstyle I rocked back in the day but is a popular style now). I'm about 6'0 245 with an athletic build similar to the football player Reggie Bush. I'm actually the shortest on my dad's side of the family and probably the fourth and fifth shortest on my mom's side. I have a lot of tattoos and it trips people out at the types of tattoos I have versus who I am professionally.

OK, then what types of ink, vs who/what are you professionally? If I may ask.

Do you have rock-hard hot core muscles, and are you usually damp, possibly from salty sweat?
And coincidentally does the size percentage ratio of your head to your body also measure the number of days it takes your head to rotate (“orbit” if you will) your body?

Yes, that is a weird coincidence.....

Bald, more grey than brown w/ goatee.

At the moment looking a little bit like a well-trained in shape rookie slightly above midget sumo wrestler .

I had not realized that that was your namesake.

Like the guy on the right?

 

[Daemon Sophic]

An odd thing that I came across. While looking for an image of someone resembling me, I spotted one that was uncanny in how closely it resembles me. Add a few (dozen) wrinkles around the eyes, and a couple on the forehead, glasses, plus a little dark grey stubble and you’ve got me.


Turns out that the image was a composite average of all of the men in the US congress.

I am the proto-typical face of political power in the US.

Yeah something like that. Lol.

And I recognize that quote! It's from an episode in season 2! Seriously, Futurama is well worth your time.

Mostly designs and names and sayings and the city I grew up in (Compton) which contrasts what I currently do which is I'm a psychiatric clinician transitioning into psychiatric social work.

5ft 10, 132 lbs, at school a was known as 'lanky' or 'stork'. A back problem forces me to stand straight so now people say 'elegant' . 48 years old and a going white under the blonde hair die (there to mask the invasive colour I'm natural blonde anyway).

Fantastic singing voice that dogs love and join in with and cats run from.

That'll do for now?
