doppelganger

Doppelganger: German. "Double walker." Synonym: "look-alike." Originally referenced paranormal spirits.

I get a lot of use out of this word, in part because apparently I have a local doppelganger who parties at Club 5 a lot. (I honestly swear it's not me, but I bet she's hot. Actually, I hope she's a really fancy drag queen, but that's a story for a different article.)

A coworker-friend of mine and I saw someone's doppelganger today in the cafeteria.

Anyhow, know this word, use it often, love it.

Did you hear the Red Hot Chili Peppers have a new bandmate? Yep, check out this photographic evidence:


From left to right, I bring you Flea, Anthony Kiedis, and Will Ferrell. 

Hold on, my phone is ringing. 

This is Siobhan. Yep, uh huh. Wait... what? Who said that? Are you sure? Give me one second -- I want to look that up. Holy crap. You're right. Chad Smith looks EXACTLY like him. Wow. DOPPELGANGER!
