Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall... Has anyone ever looked into a mirror and asked your reflection, "Who are you?"? It's not as crazy as it seems. Because when I look into the mirror, I see a stranger I've never seen before. Someone who I will never see walking down the street, someone who can't talk to me and have a pizza with. It sounds strange, because who else knows me better than myself, so in a way the reflection is not a stranger. But it's still awkward, because I've never seen myself as other people can, unless I somehow pop my eyeballs out and prop them up on a couch and watch myself scream in pain.

I agree there is often is something alienating in seeing your own reflection. Though I see it very often - I'm so vain. Most of the times, I just smile back to the reflection.
What's even more weird is seeing yourself on TV, or on video or something: you're suddenly the wrong way round!
That is a twisted thought. It seems to imply that your reflection smiled first. Creepy. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I think I look different everytime I see me; sometimes beautiful, sometimes ugly, etc, and also deper; sometimes my reflection scares the hell outta me, and I look away, sometimes I'm sure I'm not looking at myself, and blink, just to test if it's actually me. ...Don't all think me crazy now though.

Next time, convince yourself that the man in the mirror is not you. Can cause some strange feelings. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

The muscles in my face have the startling tendencey to move themselves from day to day. I always look generally the same, but some days I just look better than usual, due to small muscular changes. Strange.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

What if there is a mirror universe that fought against us aeons ago and lost, and ever since then have had to dress up just like us and act as our reflections?Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Seriously though, have you ever tried to move suddenly to see if your reflection would too or not?Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I do occasionaly tell stories like this to amuse my friends. For example I yell when we're about to pass a mirror, so my image is not late. Then he can go play cards again Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I would be freaeaeaeaked out if my image would stop doing the same thing as I do. Man!

LMAO!! I've gotta try that, it might give my reflection a break. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I don't pass by many mirrors, so mine has the easy life. Just wish he would put on a little more upper body strength to make me feel better. It's hard being a runner.Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
All the mirrorguys have also started a union. Their goal is to cut down or at least stabilize the number of mirrors in the world, so that they don't have to work too much. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! One lazy mirror guy to the other: oh come on! You look a lot like him, he'll never know the difference!
