My Time as Owen Wilson

well everyone, I’ve got a nice little story for you all.

So my friend Mel came over and was telling me about her fake Luke Wilson account on facebook, and how a bunch of people send her messages like shes the actual Luke Wilson and how hilarious it is.  Well i decided to have a try at it myself and made an Owen Wilson account just for shits and giggles.

So i made my Owen Wilson account and friended all of “Luke Wilson’s” friends and waited for people to respond.  now i made this account probably a week ago and i already have 86 friends.  it took all of a day for people who think that i’m the real owen wilson to start writing to me.  i’ll post some of my favorites below

Owen,

Not sure if you remember me from a couple years back. I met you at Silver City (strip club off I-35). Anyway, I had Dr. Keyton for Geometry way back when (I’m St Marks 89), and I asked if you did too. I forgot what you said, then I bought you a beer… Shiner I think.

I’ve really enjoyed your work over the years… just saw Bottle Rocket again (it was showing on HBO).

Thought I’d drop you a line to say Hola, and see if you’d like to connect to my network. If not, that’s cool.

Laters, bra.

Jimbo.

so much to love from that.  same highschool? strip club? a couple years ago?  awesome!!

there was also the girl who was having an extistential crisis because she couldn’t decide what was ‘real’ because of a fake celebrity facebook page.

now theres all sorts of crazy stupid people thinking i’m the real owen wilson and they’re all good and funny and stuff, but then last night i decided that i should post a nice little status update for owen and it said, ‘owen is chillin like a villan’.  little did i know that real owen was presenting at the oscars.  this little slip up caused this wonderful lady to send me the kind message below.

Hey,
How could you be chillin’ 15 minutes ago, when I just saw you on the LIVE Oscars in your tux? And then I’m sure you didn’t go to your hotel and change and turn on your computer and pull of Facebook and write something to update your status…..?? You are a fake. it’s official.

to which i responded:

NO WAY!! REALLY?!?! 

so yes.  i am going to hell.  but I’ll be laughing like a madwoman all the way there.

If you would like to see the wonderful facebook page with information pulled right from wikipedia for yourself just search “Owen Wilson” and friend the one with the picture of him in a black shirt with grey sleeves.  because there’s like 8 Owen Wilsons.  all of which i have friend requested.  the one i REALLY want to friend me back is ‘Owen Wilson’s nose’.
