Grammar

This is so () you

Megan: Do you remember Rebecca from high school? I bumped into her yesterday. She said hi to you.
Joan: Rebecca? I don't remember her.
Megan: I have something that might help you remember her. Here. (She gives her a yearbook)
Joan: Yearbook! Do you still keep it? This is so you. I lost mine years ago. (after finding Rebecca in the year book)
Oh, I know her. We weren't that close.

I'd like to know why "This is you," not "This is so like you."
Thank you in advance for you.
