I have a lot in common with my dad physically. I'm rather tall and have the same shaped facial structure. I basically look like a skinnier, slightly more attractive (I like to think) version with darker, thicker hair.

I have a personality very much like my mum's though. Similar interests, issues, sense of humour, outlook etc.

My mother and I share a lot of physical similarities. I have her crazy height and build, her facial features and hair colour. We also share a slight obsession with martial arts and video games, but that's pretty much it personality-wise. My father and I have nothing in common, though.

I look very little like my father, and a lot like my mother. I guess my personality is closest to my mother's too, but it's pretty different, I think. My father and I share a lot of common interests though, science being at the top of that list.

I share a lot of my music tastes with my parents, who were growing up during the 60s and 70s.
I share my interest in band and saxophone with my dad, more generally with my mom (she wasn't ever in band herself)
I share quite a few political views with my parents.
I share not drinking/smoking/doing drugs at all with my parents (so glad I was raised this way, TBH).
I share being prone to stress and having a short (but not violent) temper with both of my parents.

I don't really look like one parent more than the other, I think my DNA got a really good mix.

Personality wise, I think I get my sense of humor from my Dad and my dedication and ambition from my mom. I'm sure there's more, but I'm pretty different from my parents and don't have all that much in common with them. I'll have to think on it more.

In terms of personality, I got sense of humor from both parents and temper/impatience from my father. With interests my dad and I like video games (though different types) and similar tv shows while my mom and I like similar taste in music.

In terms of looks, my eyes are same shape as my mother's. While both of my parents have dark skin, my dad has more of a tan than her and so is mine.

Dad: Cool, calm & collected, high strung, calculating, analytical and cerebral, practical joker, sarcastic.

Mom: brash, bold, unfiltered, charismatic, kind, unpretentious, genuine, logical to a fault, feisty, strong sense of justice.


I'm truly a mix of the two of them, but I gravitate towards my mother's side.

I look vvvvv similar to my dad, especially as I get older and the similarities probably end there. My outgoing personality and brashness probably comes more from my mother.

I look a ton like my mom. We're both kinda passive and not great housekeepers.

I couldn't tell you if I take anything from my father... a love of Nintendo, maybe? He passed away when I was 5. The few memories I have of him are playing Super Mario World on the SNES. I'm still buying Nintendo handhelds. Though that's mostly for Pokemon. *shrugs*

I'll make a proper signature when Pokecommunity gets a proper slogan

Dad: loud voice, physical and psychological traits that make someone what TV Tropes calls a "gentle giant", kindness towards others that often overrides my BS detector.
Mom: tendency to get overly stressed over everything, mild OCD, cynicism and pessimism. I used to have a short fuse like her when I was a kid, but got over that in my teens.

Oh man the antonyms... how can you be calm yet brash and highly strung, unfiltered yet charismatic?

Because that's how personalities work, most people are full of interesting little dichotomies, quirks, contradictions, etc.

Speaking about the appearance I'm almost the copy of my father :) My mother even says that I have nothing from her {XD}
I also have some features of character which has my mom and dad. I'm a rather silent and stubborn person (as my dad) but at the same time I have a good sense of humour and love for the creativity (as my mom).
For me it's rather funny to notice our similiar habbits :) I have that obsession with books and animals like my dad and a cooking talent as my mom :) We also share with her a habbit of changing the colours of our hair but comparing to me she prefers the natural ones like here and definetely not so bright! {XD}
All that stuff is really important to me because in that way I feel myself as the part of the family :)
And here I lie under the migraine sky (c)

My dad says I play with my hair exactly the same way my mom used to when she had long hair... I also got my dad's hair color and my mom's eyes colors, I guess? ^-^;

Personality wise I actually don't think much in common with any of them? x_X

Oh! My dad doesn't really talk much until you get to know him. Apparently I am like that (but try not too >< )

I repeat myself rapidly, like my father. I don't want to admit that, though. =/
