Thread: Chaos ensues!

  1. #1

    Default Chaos ensues!

    Ok,

    This is quite simple actually. I was thinking today of how many members I associate to their avatars. In fact, sometimes I do not know their names, but know the avatars. If they were to change avatars, they may be lost to me forever. Here are some examples, and not everyone I know. Obviously I think these are some well known names..

    Jim = Cary Grant
    JohnnieGold = John Lennon
    Brian W = Boris from Rocky and Bullwinkle
    Joel = Bonsai Tree
    BRhuling = Beaver
    Baloosh = Ric Flair
    Old Saw = Pic of his scuttle and brush on a fence

    and some of the list can go on and on. Mind you, this is from memory...

    It is also confusing when some other members use the same avatars I associate with a member, again sometimes I just pay attention to the member.

    How do you all feel about this?

    He is one of the guys that usually changes his avatar, but his name is obviously easy to remember.

    I confuse myself when I change my avatar. I'll be represented by a young, horrified HST for the life of this account.

    Default the only one ...............

    The only one that changed his avatar that bothered me was " ouch", looking at that gruesome looking guy he use to have , well, it kind of demanded respect.
    I always figured if I was ever banned from B&B, Ouch was going to come to my house and break my computer, then trash my house.
    Then he changed his avatar and it kind of made him look like, well you know,.......................A SISSIE!!!
    Now the one he is useing now is a lot better but I like the first one the best.
    But that is just my opinon, and we all know that isn't worth much....................JR

    I have always liked what Iron Hammer said after the GTG outside of Louisville. He said that he was kind of disapointed that Hooiser Trooper didn't look like his avartar. although I'm sure that his wife is tickled pink he doesn't................JR

    I agree. I associate many members by picture. I've been changing mine often lately. Not sure why, just in that kind of mood.
