Bobcat Goldthwait has a joke about someone coming up to him and saying "No offense, but has anyone ever told you that you look like Bobcat Goldthwait?"

Not knowing who Bobcat Goldthwait is, I would take offense at the "no offense".

Thou shalt not publish an article about looks without including a photograph.

Snopes includes a photo but there is no confirmation it is THE photo.

Haha thank you! even if that's not from the contest, it's a great picture nonetheless.
