OK I totally agree here. Uncle Fester...totally not complimentary ! 
And whoever said that some people think all bald guys look alike is dead on...
Now I can see why some ethnicities get upset..

Actually, the only name that I can think of that would not be a compliment is Uncle Fester.  All the other completely bald icons -- Lex Luthor, Yul, Telly, Mr. Clean -- look really good.

Ha!  My wife and I drove out to visit my folks this past summer.  My mom hadn't seen my shaved bald head yet, and called me Uncle Fester.  I am a bit overweight, and it's been killer to get it off, but I just laughed at her.

To DJ Bald - I think I would be tempted to say "I think I look more like Charles Xavier (aka Professor X), but thanks for the compliment."

For a former comic book geek like me that would be a compliment.

My nieces husband said I look like Al Roker. Al Roker? I was kinda peeved but I let it go. If my baldness bothers him let him worry about it. I had violent thoughts though.  :x!

I have to agree with everyone who thinks it is a compliment.

Lol!  I wish I was Lex!  Nice bank roll, always putting the hurt on superman.  People who feel insecure need to put others down in order to build themselves up. Your slyness may be a great touchstone as to who to include in your "Orphan Annie Inner Circle" .  Some people just have issues.

Your niece's husband needs to get his eyes checked.  Did you point out that among other things, a key difference between you and Roker is that he is black and you are not?   :/O

Al Roker ? You know a few years ago I would have said thats insulting but since Al is now sly and trimmed down a bit I think he looks pretty good.
Looking back on this now...I definitely dont think it was a compliment even though Lex Luther looks pretty cool. I think the guy who said it to me was just trying to get a rise out of me and it didn't work because I think I look good sly . Having said that, he is rocking the George Costanza look himself so he really shouldnt talk.
I do firmly believe though that some people will ALWAYS think someone being bald is odd or weird...no matter how good they look. Its a society thing...slowly but surely it will be more mainstream...we are going to see to it right ?  8) O0

There will always be people who don't like the look, just like there are people who don't like facial hair or long hair on men.  Can't please everybody.  ::)
