I was on the 1/9 train today going down from my friend's dorm at Columbia on 116th street and a guy walked on the train and he looked EXACTLY LIKE RICHARD. He was wearing jean shorts and a long sleeve green shirt, and wierd pointy shoes. He had the reddish hair and the exact same reddish facial hair. At first I wasn't going to say anything until I looked in his hand. He was carrying a Small Cloth duffelbag with an iBook (mac laptop) with a huge pair of headphones plugged into it. I walked over to him and was like, have you ever heard of the Aphex Twin. And he said "no, I've never heard it, but a friend once told me I looked like him" with a European accent! He asked me a few questions about aphex, I told him to check it out.
When he got off the train I coulda swore he was going to look back at me and do the grin, or softly say Druqks, and stand staring at me as the train pulled away.
It was fucking crazy...I never realized until then how excited I would be to meet the guy.

Yes Xanatov, if he was real I'm sure he pretended to be someone else, just to stop people from getting to excited. You shoulda asked for his autograph, you FOOL.

If I met RDJ I'd grab him, throw him to the floor, put my foot on his head and force a knife into his neck.

i bet he'd be quicker than you, and before you try to grab him i'm sure he'd administer several punches to your head and neck causing you to collapse to the ground. and if i also met him at the same time, i would join in with richard as he kicks and stamps on your head until your face finally caves in.

I saw him last Friday at the V&A Museum gig, he was watching me and my mates skinning up, I asked him if he knew of this site and he said that all of you lot are the saddest bunch of losers he's ever encountered.

Phobia you are fucking with me no? Because I know you all think I'm just an excited fan who wanted to make a big deal out of nothing but this guy wasn't a richard look alike, he didn't look like richard, he looked like he WAS richard.
Has anyone ever spotted him in real life besides at one of his shows? Even at one of his shows? Did he look how you expected?

X, i remember when i was insanely nuts about radiohead back in 1995, and i was shooping in this little town in VT around the time they had a concert up there, and BAM, i saw thom yorke...... but i was too scared to go up to him.. maybe it wasn;t him.. i'll never know, but since theni have seen serveral guys that look a bit like thom, and richard. actually, do you know that retarded red head "comic, Carrot Top? he kind looks like Richard, in a sick way....... maybe i am just reaching...

Yes, I saw him in Soho (London) walking past lots of sex shops with some mates about 5 years ago. Also, about 3 years ago I saw him getting on a bus in Holloway Road(London) with a girl, waring a massive pair of silver headphones. Normal enough bloke. Embarassed to admit that me and a mate have treid to find the bank he lives in(Elephant and Castle, London) - could be on the Newington Causeway............I'm not a stalker - honest.

Yeah well this guy looked alot more like RDJ than carrot top and he did have a big pair of silver headphones, but also if I was in London it would be possible but I doubt he would be on the New York City subway.
Especially when he has the windowlicker-mobile!
Does anyone know if his laptop is a Mac or a PC?

They weren't cut-off and they were just denim shorts. I know this seems silly but what color was the bag he had his laptop in Kenchie?
