This would be a little more involved than the Facebook version where you just put your picture in and it uses facial recognition software to find people with similar features.
It would have charts and graphs you'd carefully pick from to match skin tone and hair color. You'd input points on your face
at specific locations and follow a detailed process to achieve the most accuracy. There would be a list of questions about ancestory, height, weight etc.
Then the hapless dupe would click "Find My Twin!" and the attached link would pop up.
Big laughs for all.
Find Your Twin!

Oh, so not something to match you up with somebody who does exactly the same searches you do... |
|

I had this experience in a rather disturbing form recently; on a news site, I stumbled on the mug-shots of two men who'd perpetrated a hate crime of some description, and not only did one of them look a lot like me, but the other one looked a lot like the man I was working closely with at the time. Eerie. |
|
|
I think "Find my "online" twin's girlfriend" would be better, after all, all the hard work has already been done... |
|
|
And, although it would be useless to us happily married
folk*, I'm sure 'Find my girlfriend's twin online' would be
wildly popular as well. |
|
|
The Good Fairy Jenny is watching. Always watching... |
|
|
//Happily Married//? The 'bakery frowns apron oxymorons, as far as I can tell. |
|
|
That rules you out, then. |
|
|
Yes it does, but I feinted right. |
|
|
I had the weirdest time once passing through Medicine Hat Alberta. Everyone seemed to know me and thought I was joking when I explained that I wasn't this other person that they knew. |
|
|
It was creepy. Ended up being a wild evening though. |
|

I used to live in a city of about 45,000 people (big by Maine
standards) and I had a 'twin' there. People were always
mistaking us for one another. His name even started
with the same letter as mine. He lived on the opposite side
of town and we had a few mutual acquaintances, but
somehow never managed to meet. For years, we both had
long blonde hair, but then I cut mine and everyone who
knew both of us started saying we looked nothing alike. |
|
|
My point, if I have one (do I? Hmm... Yeah, we're cool
here), is that a computer can't possibly be any worse at
finding facial similarities than actual live human beings
are. [+] |
|
|
There is big money for twins as subjects in biomedical
research studies. And this is just what us solo-birthers
need to get in on that cash pot. |
|
|
Or, wait. If this was meant to be "Find Your Twin In
Line" then it is a sly method for sneaking into a movie
theater on someone else's dime. (Ignoring the
probability of finding a match in lines less than several
km in length, that is.) |
|
|
So what happens when the usher says "hey, you look just
like that other (individual) who went in earlier, only
(he/she/it) was holding a ticket and you're not! Wa-aait a
minute, this is the old 'find your twin in line to get into the
movies for free' ploy, isn't it? Nice try (species/gender -
appropriate slur), you have to pay, just like everyone
else!" |
|
|
My computer blew up from overheating because of being unable to find anyone to match my iq of 2 |
|
|
Oh come on now, the HB has a minimum IQ limit of 45. After all, it involves wires. Now don't go pretending to be all that dumb. |
|
|
I got in under the radar. |
|
|
Ladies and Gentleman, I present for your consideration:
the Stealth Kiwi! |
|
|
HA ha. Very good.
I am a Pom actually, Bin' imprisoned here for forty four years as a white slave, ever since the Memsahib drugged and kidnapped me ...'Land of hope and glory.'..... 'Shuuut up'. |
|
|
I thought it was 'The Land of Sheep and Glory'. |
|
|
As for being 'dragged' there, please inform your significant
other that The Good Fairy Jenny and I are willing to be
'dragged' off to NZ any time she cares to come fetch us. I'm
sure you have a pressing need for highly-skilled welders,
yes? |
|
|
Sure he does. That's why I get so many job offers from the
government. |
|
|
Any day now. That deer was working for the FSB. |
