Mistaken Shared Identity

Waitress: Has anyone ever told you, you kind of look like David Sedaris?

Me: ... No. No one has ever told me that.

Waitress: It's true. You look like David Sedaris.

Me: Thank you.

Waitress: At least... you have the quiet, calm demeanor that I associate with him.

Me: Didn't David Sedaris kill himself?

Waitress: I... I don't think so.

Me: Then who was that? Author. Recently killed himself.

Waitress: I think you mean David Foster Wallace.

Me: ...who I do not look like. Or looked like.
