I am happy to see all the familiar avatars. I think that if I saw some of you in real life I would recognize you. I would recognize a lot of your kids too. What do you think?

There is one (infamous! LOL) pea that lives and works in my area. I'm pretty sure I saw her and her kids at Target a few summers ago, but I wasn't brave enough to ask her. She used the same profile pic for Facebook that she used on 2Peas, and she is apparently FB friends with some of my FB friends because once in a while she ends up in my suggested friends list.

I might recognize the few that I also have on Facebook but in reality, probably not. I'm about the least observant person ever!

No...I am really bad about recognizing people in general. The handful of times we have run into someone famous, dh has always pointed it out to me. I have had a pea tell me she recognized me from my avatar picture before though.

I was shopping once and thought I saw a pea, but was to chicken to ask. But in general I wouldn't recognize my best friend in some cases.. lol

I might recognize the face, but I would totally blank on name(s). I am good with faces in knowing I've seen someone somewhere, but not so good with names...

There was one really crazy pea that lives in the next town over from me. Ran into her once at a scrapbook store and there was no doubt, whatsoever, that it was her. She was as looney in person as she was on the boards! eta - maybe I should have removed my location before hitting submit

Are you saying that I look like an elephant?

I doubt it. Sometimes I see faces that look familiar to me but I'm too chicken to actually find out where I know the face from. Plus I don't think there are any peas in my town. I know there are a few in the next city over. I don't remember what pictures I've shared in the past and I'm not using the same user name here.

Yes, there are several I recognzied from the facebook groups. Some that we haven't seen in quite some time. It was really nice to see everyone again. I hope this gets people back!

My avatar is pretty current, I look just the same. I think I would recognize the ones I follow on Instagram easily. I see them a lot. LOL!!

I've seen a few people at local crops whose faces I recognized from their 2Peas avatars or signatures. An employee of a LSS recognized my name from 2peas (my pea name and email address were the same). I've never had a random Pea sighting in the wild though.

Maybe a very distinct face, but probably not. I'm usually too intent on what I'm out and about for. If I was carrying my cat, you might recognize me though! lol

I think at one time people tied a green ribbon or something on their bag. That was supposed to be a pea-signal.

nope. I am horrible with faces. I've only met one Pea in my life. she never had an actual photo in her profile so I would not have recognized her when I met her.

Years ago I was positive that I saw a Pea in a McDonald's near my workplace. I knew the Pea lived in my general area but I didn't know specifics. I didn't feel comfortable approaching her, so as soon as I got home I posted and asked her if she'd had lunch there. It was definitely her. We got together several times after that. We're FB friends, though I don't believe she's posted on NSBR in years.

Hmmm...a few but if I saw any of them I'd be pretty stunned that they were in this country!

I probably would have a nagging feeling that I knew them, and then figure it out about two hours later when I was at home. LOL

I doubt I would. I'm terrible with recognizing faces.

I think I would recognize some and I'd be pretty excited about it.

No, I doubt I would recognise any people...but I might recognise some of their pets!

Probably not, I'd be afraid to ask, one time I went to a knitting meet up and "knew"someone with the screen name of purple pants that said she'd go. Only one person was wearing people pants and so I asked her and she got very weird and emphatically denied it, so either I offended someone who likes to wear purple pants or creeped out the person so much they didn't fess up! I've stopped asking people after that if I've met them online..oh wait that its not true, I asked someone who worked for luxe at their booth but they had made it pretty clear they'd be at cha. Was it one edge pea? She did the greys anatomy thread

probably not. I barely recognize some of the names. I am friends with a few on FB, I might recognize them if I saw them out. I guess I need to be more observant!
