The Ex-Girlfriend Clone Incident
by unprofound | Dec 19 '02
If there’s a girl out there that looks exactly like my ex-girlfriend, you can be damn sure that there’s a girl out there that looks exactly like your ex-girlfriend.

My ex-girlfriend hasn't lived in the same city as me for 10 months, but everytime I go out I see at least one girl who looks just like her. It freaks me out a lot, because it's easy to believe that these 'clones' not only look the same but act the same too, same personality, stuff like that. Could get you into a lot of trouble if you say the wrong thing. Question is, isn't there a part of you that wants to go there, just to see if there are certain other, ahem, similarities?

How is it you weren't on my trust list?

How is it I haven't been receiving notifications when you write?

How is it I was even invited to the Epinions Idol competition when any one of your reviews could kick the bejeezus out of mine?

I suspect there's some sort of conspiracy here. Whether clones are involved or not, I'll leave that up to you to decide.

Clones of exes freak me out...even worse was when I dated one of the clones. I'm still recovering.

I saw me on set one time. It kinda freaked the shit outta me. The real me, I mean, not the me-clone me. He didn't see me. I don't think. Anyway, I didn't introduce myself. But I sure as fuck stared at me for a good long while. True story. ~Ryan

stockhiznazz,

Actually, I was thinking it would be fun to sleep with the clone just to, you know, have sex.

Thanks for the good words, blood.

have been fun to sleep with the clone to see if the sex was the same or the breasts and beaver look the same ... Just my thoughts

I enjoy both of your reviews, keep knocking them out.

Kathy,

I feel for you. A couple of months ago, I had a girl absolutely flip out and ask for my autograph because she thought I was a Backstreet Boy. True story.

Mister Funnymanfunny29thHaHa,

I really have no idea what you're talking about. Try miming it. That always seemed to work for MJ.

Leslie,

Between you and me, I think that the people who claim to be able to get beyond any part of their past--especially something aas significant as a break-up--are liars. Either that, or they have no idea what fun a good revenge fantasy really is.

hehehe...Very nice indeed.

You haven't read a book by Milan Kundera called Identity, have you? It starts off from a somewhat similar (if inverted) premise.

I met my (alleged) clone at a party when I was 15. I thought I was much hotter than she was, but strangers were coming up to me all night and talking to me like they knew me so there must have been some truth to it!

Welcome!

Getting To The Cheeky Bottom Of A "Clone Sex" Mystery (Reply to this comment)
by 29th_Candidate

This Lindsay lass may have looked like a cheeky facsimile of your review subject-in-absentia, but I, errrrr..., that is, we, can assure you it would neither have felt nor tasted as cheeky as it appeared, or else the person under the covers next to me, is the doppleganger.

Heh! I'm being cheeky. It's a joke. Get it?!

...It wasn't in poor taste, was it?

Ooooohhhh.....turning him inside out with my mind. I like that....a LOT! I must summon up all of my powers and maybe I can work on that. If only, indeed.

I've been accused of not being able to get beyond this part of my past....(but only by some dork who commented on my divorce review). In RL, I'm actually a fairly nice person. You can ask (almost) anybody...(or just the few Eps people who've met me).

Anyway, your piece tickled the hell out of me....and so did your comment.

From this remark, I get the feeling that you know me from somewhere--especially, putting it together with what you said over at 29th's place about coming back as someone else.

Let me guess. . .Do you have a neighbor named Mr. Wilson and a dog named Ruff?

Lynne,

I'm beginning to wonder if perhaps all these clones are from the same person, and are conspiring toward world-takeover...



...Of course, that would mean that, either you're a clone, or you're the clone spawn-point. It would also mean that you look exactly like my ex-girlfriend...



...Hmmmm, looks like I'm going to have to retool my theory.

Actually, I hope to have any encounters with my ex to be limited to my dreams (??nightmares???) when I am the all-powerful and can continue to maim him without any of the usual consequences or legal implications.

Ah, would that it were that simple. I tried to contain my ex in those very same dreams, and when she showed up in what must have been reality, I became even more frightened because I couldn't turn her inside out with my mind.

One year a couple of friends came back from Florida having met my clone. I would have loved to trade places, considering that was the year I was grounded forever. She could have been at my house listening to Neil Diamond and scrubbing the bathroom grout, while I could have been in Florida partying with my friends.

Wonder if your clone has ever met your ex-girlfriend...

I found your review repulsive. Now please stop monkeying around and write something worthwhile. Newbie.

Welcome To The Nuthouse!!! (Reply to this comment)

I found you in Sordid-1's comment section, and you had the wonderful "new" marker beside you--I think that's a great idea.

Even my Johnny Angel has clones running around--one guy who pumps my gas looks like he did when he was in high school. And there was this one minister I met who looked like him, too--only the minister had a moustache.

I think our own adorable minister looks a little bit like Al Gore, only much more animated--kind of a cross between Al Gore and a teddy bear!

As for myself. . .at my ideal weight, I look like a cross between Sally Field, Kate Jackson, and Karen Carpenter (the latter at her ideal weight).

In my in-between here and ideal weight, I resemble Monica Lewinsky a little.

These days, when I want to flatter myself, I say that I look like Tyne Daly (a very attractive plus-sized actress)--but the truth is that the closest I come to that would be that I look like her driver's license photo! LOLOLOL

No, I think you can find my clone on The Drew Carey Show playing his receptionist--only I'm a brunette and don't dress like a clown (I don't need to)!!!

Anyway, welcome to the nuthouse!!!

I'm your resident stalker (one of them, anyway)!!!

Happy Holidays!

...I just found the respawn point!

I can empathize about the ex-douchebag, since I've got a couple of those that I wouldn't care to see unless it was on a milk carton. In fact, it would drive me bananas.

The Sordsman queried:

Have you ever considered that it may be Lindsey's entire purpose for living - the sum total of the utility of her entire existence - just to slap you with this one brief mindfuck?

and Unprofound dutifully answered:

Yes, but that's just because I believe that the universe revolves around me. I've also considered the possibility that the sum total of the utility of my ex-girlfriend's entire existence was to slowly burn me with one long, torturous mindfuck. But that, my friend, is a story for another time.

DiggityDavidMac theorized:

Hmmm, well , my theory is that whatever created the human race ran out of original ideas so He (or She, or It????) had to resort to rehashing all of the previous work!

Unprofound rebutted:

Yeah, but why does He/She/It have to go and do it on my time?!?
