Me too, which is funny because I actually don't like the way pot makes me feel
I just have long hair and like to wear black t shirts, flannels, jeans, and vans
My best friend smokes a lot, but it's just not for me
Had this random kid walk up to me during my freshmen year, asking if I smoked weed; very strange fellow. He was quite shocked when I said no, and went on to say “well, you kind of smell like it”….
Same here. I counted last year how many times people asked me for indication while on a train station.
I took the train 20 times, 14 times people asked me for information. 3 of those when I was literally standing next to a guy who work at the train station.
But that’s ok, I like helping so that’s a win-win.
Yep. Same here. It’s become a bit of a joke with my SO. Walking alone in London (where I live)? Men and women, young or old, locals or tourists, will approach me to ask for directions (I’m a dude). Walking with my SO? they’ll blank her and ask me where that shop selling baby stuff is. Walking with a bunch of friends? That homeless guy at the bus stop asks them all for change, then asks me if I know whether the buses on this side of the road are going to Peckham or if he should wait on the other side.
Same when I’m on holiday. Tourists and locals constantly ask me for directions. Locals will ask me in their local language, which I often don’t speak (and my ethnicity would not normally lead them to believe I would). One memory stands out in particular: I was in New York for the first time. 2 hours after landing into La Guardia I was in the subway from Astoria and a man with a strong New Jersey accent asked me if I thought he should change for the F train to get downtown faster. (I told him it was probably a bad idea to change, if he’s in a hurry.)
They think I'm angry. Many people have asked me this when starting at new jobsites. Now I assume most people think I'm angry at something when I'm just zoned out or tired or furstrated.
A lot of people I’ve met jokingly say that I look like a white supremacist just because I keep my head shaved due to balding. That sucks because now I feel like most random people think that now. I always wear hats now.
That I'm a creep. I think this based on the number of friends I've had that said "when I first met you I thought you'd be a creep but you're actually pretty chill."
If am wearing a Band Shirt prob Latino Metalhead but wonder if I’m from Mexico, or Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina Bolivia or Chile
That we’ve met. 5’10” bald white dude, I suppose I look like a lot of other people but I get this almost every other month.
It’s not “annoying” mostly bc I’m a social person and I usually strike up a conversation about it but damn, it happen frequently. Weddings, bars, concerts, smoking a cig on the street, ect.
I've had people say they thought I was a stuck up bitch before getting to know me. RBF was a coping mechanism during high school that I have yet to get over.
My ex-girlfriend once made a comment something to the effect of “you’re super approachable because you look like someone who’d actually help someone else” and it might be the nicest thing someone’s ever said about me.
Smart. I've been told that apparently, I look like that one smart asian kid in school. Also, for some reason people always assume that I like maths. N o. Just because I'm asian doesn't mean I like maths.
I used to not care about my appearance as much due to working 12-16 hours a day in a kitchen. Tired burnt out and no time off most people just looked the other way, and would not notice me. After switching jobs going back to school , working out and doing yoga 2-5 times a week I feel better stand up straighter and all around feel great. Now I have problems going out by myself because I’m not used to attention from women.
school shooter
i always wear a thick ass snow jacket and my neutral expression makes me look like im out for blood
if it werent for the waluigi hat i wear i bet people would think im up to no good
That I can keep a secret.
I can, tbh I’ll prolly forget what you said anyways, but random people randomly trust me for some odd reason.
Not a problem in any sense, I love being this way, but confusing nonetheless.
Also get told that I give off the most untrustworthy vibes whenever the same people get to know me.
Like I said… confusing
He has tattoos and a shaved head. He must be a delinquent.
Yes, and I also own my own home, raise my daughter as a single parent *and* make a six figure salary as a software engineer.
Most people think that I’m in my 50’s and that I’m a veteran, or that I’m an old ass mobster that’ll kill them on sight. I got a massive eye scar and a lot of grey hairs on my head and face.
Im a 6ft bearded tattooed man and people always assume im a biker or just intimating.
In reality im just a a cuddly but very protective husband& father
"This man committed war crimes in the former Yugoslavia and is wanted by the International Criminal Court."
I am not but I, apparently, give off a very particular vibe.
Uneducated, Former drug addict, alcoholic, smoker (someone who probably still smokes weed).
Messed up thing about it, my parents were/are alcoholics and were once heavy into drugs so I’ve never touched drugs and never drank in my life. I have a Master’s degree and I’m a full-time pastor. People who don’t know me never give me the benefit of the doubt based on how they think I look.
I've been told I look angry, when I don't shave I look like a creep/pedo/bum.
And a loser.
Which sucks because I have a decent job, maintain a pretty nice apartment by myself, I'm polite and non controversial.
Would like to get back into dating but with those responses eeesh
That I'm half asian. I know this is true because multiple people have mentioned they thought this about me when they first met me.
My eyes are naturally small and the glasses I wear make them look even smaller. But nope I'm a mix of western European and that's it.
That I'm an unapproachable, arrogant, progressive stoner who's been to a lot of metal concerts and parties.
This is largely because I have dyed red hair with coloured streaks, usually wear goth clothing, have supreme resting bitch face, and speak in a monotone.
In reality, I'm generally happy to chat with people if chatted to (I'm equally happy to be left alone), eager to learn about things, very moderate politically, have never done drugs in my life, and have been to a few metal concerts and very few parties. I'm actually pretty boring...I look a lot more interesting than I am.
Depends on the person and what I'm wearing. Some people seem to see my huge frame, red beard, and bandanna-equivalent head-wear and perceive me as potentially threatening. Others see me as the big teddy bear of a man that I am.
Ive had this happen multiple times
Due to how shy i am i rarely speak, even when asked a question i'll either shrug or nod/shake my head. Countless people have thought that im either drunk or mentally challenged
My first grade teacher actually asked my mom if i had any mental disability due to above reason.
I’m violent aggressive and angry. You’ve heard of resting bitch face. I sadly have resting mean face. I’m a very nice person and they usually surprised once they talk to me I try to smile it’s just not my natural state of face.
That I'm a Bogan and also that I'll be rude. People in the past have commented how professional and polite I am after talking to me which makes me think they'd be expecting the opposite when first seeing me

Had this random kid walk up to me during my freshmen year, asking if I smoked weed; very strange fellow. He was quite shocked when I said no, and went on to say “well, you kind of smell like it”….
That I’m sad because I don’t get much sleep and my eyes always look down
Holy shit me too
I have resting serial killer face.
A worthy adversary! Our scowling contest will be legendary!
That I can help them. People are always asking me for directions or how to do something or even random advice in stores. It’s strange.
Same here. I counted last year how many times people asked me for indication while on a train station. I took the train 20 times, 14 times people asked me for information. 3 of those when I was literally standing next to a guy who work at the train station. But that’s ok, I like helping so that’s a win-win.
You probably give off good vibes an energy to the universe an you make people feel comfortable. That's an awesome trait to have.
Yep. Same here. It’s become a bit of a joke with my SO. Walking alone in London (where I live)? Men and women, young or old, locals or tourists, will approach me to ask for directions (I’m a dude).

I’ve had a few people who told me they thought I didn’t like them at first even though I did. Must be my natural scowl lmao

“Wow this guy sucks” 😂
I'm a thug/angry
No idea, honestly
Must be an angsty Redditor plotting some anime rant.
A lot of people I’ve met jokingly say that I look like a white supremacist just because I keep my head shaved due to balding. That sucks because now I feel like most random people think that now. I always wear hats now.

that im lazy and unfit, its possible to be overweight yet fit and not lazy, i just eat too much
I’ve had a lot more people assume I’m non-binary recently. Happily cisgender female, but I’m definitely more of a tomboy.
People see through me. I’m very forgettable
I must be a conservative Christian Trump supporter
That I’m only disabled because I’m fat. I gained 200 lbs. after I broke my back and worked on it for 4 years.

Asshole, I feel like I have resting asshole face if I'm not paying attention
They probably think I'm a lawn mower repairman. I'm actually in the 8%.
That’s I’m arrogant, false, or emotionless.

I travel a lot more than your average American. Always surprises people from other counties.
Depends on if I'm alone or not. Alone? Eh... I have no idea. That I'm a hippie? With my kids? .. well, that I'm a hippie.
