It's the weekend. If you're up this late, you aren't on LJ.

Casting Call:
I think its inevitable that as we read each other's journals we create mental pictures of each other. Post this on your own journal to find out who your friends see when they read about your life.

Two Rules:
1) The person must be in the movies or on TV (but doesn't have to be an actor/actress). The person can be specific to a role (e.g. Jennifer Elhe's Elizabeth Bennet) or just the person themself.
2) Post a picture!

I'm up this late, I'm on LJ, and I just spent the day (12 hours) playing City of Heroes. I'm not sure if I feel accomplished or sad.

Also, I think I've seen a photo of you here so it's hard to put someone else in. But just for fun:

You can really tick off thebitterguy by casting a South Asian as an Egyptian.

Except that I wasn't going for race, I was going for snarkiness.

Nah, she's just riffing on my hot burning hate for the guy who plays Sayid on Lost.

I mean, seriously, who the hell is gonna believe he's Iraqi?

That guy, though, from the Daily show and the Spiderman movie? Him I love.

I adore him. I could be biased because he's one of my people (technically I'm Lebanese/Syrian, but it's the same continent, damn it).

No kidding? My great grandmother was from Syria.

My great grandmother was from Lebanon and my great grandfather was Syrian and Lebanese. Both of them moved to the US in the early 1900s.

I love Asif Mandvi too. He's from India.

In fact, he was the lead in a Merchant Ivory film called The Mystic Masseur. Really.

And, in humour, not unlike you. Nick Brendon, also you-like.

Naveen Andrews isn't Iraqi?

Ok, well, I guess that doesn't *really* surprise me.

I am honestly surprised he's apparently such a bad choice to play an Iraqi.

Obviously I believed, just to answer your rhetorical question :)

Every reply I try to think of for this makes me sound even more racist than the last one.
