Explain your avatar

[AnnaMarie]

I've been using my nymph avatar since we moved here. It was a gift.

There's a forum I have been a member of since the nineties. Well, actually, I've been with this group of people since then, but we actually broke a way from the original forum. But that's a different story.

Back to my nymph.....a member of the forum started making avatars for people. Whoever asked got one. The ones she was making were Bratt dolls. I don't like them, so I never asked. Then one day, she just posted this for me. She said she just started experimenting and when she was about half way through, it made her think of me. So, she finished it with me in mind, and it became mine.

I had never told her I didn't like the Bratt doll ones. (When someone is making gifts for everyone it would be rude to say that.) But mine was the only one that was not a Bratt.

And it's so completely appropriate. Is she a good nymph or a bad nymph? Much like me on-line...people are not always sure. And, I absolutely love the colours.

I may switch it soon though. I have another I really like, but it was suggested I not use it where I mod. But I think it would be allowed here.

Self explanatory, just me when I could finally show the world that I had my hair growing back!

I'm a pretty big music fan and I love all genres for the most part; I consider myslef a bit of a music nerd. That said, I had never heard of the Pozo-Seco Singers before your post blunthead. Just listening to a few songs now. Love it! Thanks for inadvertently turning me on to a new group!

Yer more than welcome. My friend who knew of the group has always been a wealth of great art obscureness, as I've ended up being; in part, perhaps by familiarity. I've found a number of things which he and I've shared, too.

I was pretty thick with a charcoal tabby in Los Angeles whose original name was an obnoxious Spanish "almost-translation" play on words. (You won't have to stretch your imagination too much to get it, especially if you're familiar with some dirty Spanish.) I refused to call him by that name because it sounded (to me) like I had a Spanish potty-mouth.

Kitty looked vaguely Chinese to me at times, his meow was a distinct one, he defended his territory against invaders, and brought me all kinds of dead enemies, so I thought I was being clever when I renamed him Mao, especially since he was the dictator of the back yard.

Aw!

I seriously don't understand how some people can hate cats. But I don't really care for dogs, so... *shrug*

I'm more of a cat fan myself, but isn't it lucky for dogs and cats that there are cat people and dog people?

 

[doowopgirl]

The creepy cat close upjust took my fancy.

 

[hossenpepper]

It's unexplainable.

Except for the easily explainable part.

Looks like a fifties experiment with weed.

No, it's a personal fart smelling helmet. As Mike Meyers said, "Everyone loves their own brand... it's like magic!".

 

[kingricefan]

Nah... just yellow and round.

Better get your kidney's checked then! Or is it the liver that turns people yellow?

..."someone's post"...that's all I am to you now?????....someone??????.....

Oh, Scott, I am so humbled in your presence! I honestly didn't rmember who's post I 'borrowed' the pic from. Honestly. It's been years since I've started using it, so please forgive me? It really does 'fit' me, truly!

 

[kingricefan]

....and you never do.......Now, I'm just waiting for KRF's witty rebuttal!
.....I may even make popcorn for this one

I gotta make extra popcorn......

Y'all better d*mn well red-neck-anize!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You think you know me? You don't KNOW ME AT ALL!!!!!

Ultimately, it's not a cat's fault that they have long, sharp, pointy teeth or that their mouths harbor certain bacteria detrimental to humans. Sleeping 80% of their lives is their fault, however.

They have a low threshold of boredom. I teach mine a new word every day and show them a new location on Google Maps and then we try to use both in our conversations. It's fun! Gotcha!!!!

And I dubbed Mao -- Mouse-y Tongue.

 

[FlakeNoir]

Is this closer...?

Spoiler

Not even close.....

Mao was so sweet when I visited LA.....he brought me lizards, and put on quite a show with a throw rug!
I tried to talk him into bringing me cash, but he thought lizards were better.

Cheetos are good. Soft is not.
