      @JohnT: I've always held that people who use xmas caps in their avatars outside of the month of december are irredeemably evil.

      @Diss: I didn't notice you had changed your avvie till you said it.
      Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

          I think the avatar is cool JohnT but it really is high time it lost the Christmas hat...

            Perhaps I should change mine...*I* know what it is but I don't think it comes out too clearly in avatar size
            Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

                Hey JohnT, why's your kid still dressed as santa? It's February. Or do you just keep the santa hat on her all year so that you don't have to be bothered with mothballing it or something?

                  I thought it was a picture of him as a child.

                      What about my little juggalo?

                      loinburger's old avatar. IT'S LIKE THE MAGIC'S JUST GONE NOW

                      Also, apart from taking the hat off, JohnT should do NOTHING to change his avatar, which is a CLASSIC.

                            Naw, it's just in reference to the string of bad avatars that are your highlight. Ann Coulter?

                              No need to be embarrassed Dauphin, the avatar is me, the Xmas hat from 2002.

                              Loinburger: The greatest animated avatar EVAR! (And I'm not talking about Heston).

                              See, Starchild? I thought it was a cover of some science fiction novel.

                              Dauphin: Nice, but a little predictable. "Oh, I get it: Dolphin!" Maybe you can hunt up some obscure 17th-century aristocratic nobody and use him.

                              Ozzy: Babies rock, but my wife looked at your avatar a while ago and "tsk-tsk"'ed it. It gets your message across, but it's not a hit with the ladies. Not that that's a big worry around here.
