Avatar Contest 9/12 to 9/18 MOM

[Mac Danny]

Yesterday was My Mom's Birthday yesterday. Instead of having a theme dealing with 9-11 I thought it could be neat to have a theme dealing with MOMs.

Moms from TV, film, books, real life, things, places etc. It's wide Open as long as it is MOM related. So go out there and Find a MOM!

Avatar rules are the same. No suggesting, no griping, have fun. Winner of this week picks the theme of next week.

EDIT: Mother Figures count. If someone is not a biological mom, guardians who fill the Mom role are acceptable.

[SPAfreak]

I call Mom from Futurama. Give me a few minutes to make an avatar.

[Ed Cunard]

I'm in with the image of the Mom tattoo, one of the traditional tattooing images.

[HomerJay]

Dibs on MILFs.

Av to follow...

[Dom]

I'm in, with famous mother, Mrs. Bates.

We all go a little mad sometimes.

Ahh Homer.. Between you and Jesse there are no lack of sexy twists to av contests.

[HomerJay]

Ahh Homer.. Between you and Jesse there are no lack of sexy twists to av contests.
Throw Dr. Kramer and Nikita in there and we'd be CBR's Mount Rushmore of sexy avatars.

Now I just have to decide whether to use a famous MILF or my wife.

[Mac Danny]

I am in this week with the Soccer Mom!

Identified by her Yoga pants and Minivan. The Soccer mom can be seen most weeknights and all weekends shuttling litte Zachary and Katelyn to the local field.

P.S. I had NO IDEA that "Soccer mom" in google would bring up a whole sub genre of porn.

[Your Imaginary Pal]

Norman Bates' Mama.

edit:
dag nabbit.....Dom beat me to the punch,
back to the drawing board

[SPAfreak]

I'm in with the beloved and foul-mouthed woman of the future, Mom. She owns Mom's friendly robot company and has been known to utter things like "Jerkwad robots make me sick to my ass.", "Jam a bastard in it you crap!" and my personal favorite "Make that bitch your bitch you bastard!"

[Matt Algren]

Sorry to take one of the MILFs, Homer, but I'm in with Claire Huxtable.

Cosby's price for having her as a tv wife was Leonard Part 6. The universe had to be balanced.

Enjoy the avatar

[Cei-U!]

It's a darn shame I don't have a scanner or I'd post the drawing I did of my mom a few years before she passed on. Guess I'll have to settle for my second choice:

When John Steed and Emma Peel went forth to do battle with the forces of not-niceness, it was a roly-poly gent in a wheelchair* codenamed Mother who gave the orders.

Cei-U!
Has Avengers on his mind!

*No personal identification here, no sir

[Stellar]

Ah, too slow.

[Lone Ranger]

I'm in with a very fertile single mom.

She's pretty old school when it comes to discipline:

THERE WAS AN OLD WOMAN
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children she didn't know what to do.
She gave them some broth without any bread.
She whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.

Awesome. Thanks.

[Dreadstar]

How about the iconic Mother Box?

[Jack Zodiac]

I saw your new avatar on another thread and figured it was for the avatar of the week contest, but I didn't think the topic of the week would be famous comic moms. Awesome choice, Dread.

[K'Nort]

How about the iconic Mother Box?

http://www.dbr.nu/yunchtime/misc/MotherBox.jpg

Damn you!!

[Dreadstar]

Damn you!!

I was afraid someone would beat me to it because I wasn't going to be satisfied with anything less than a Kirby rendition.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

As a kid from Milwaukee, I've got to go with a TV Mom I grew up with:

Mrs. C from Happy Days:

I'm in with Spider-Man's mom, who turned out to be a government spy, then turned out to be not dead, then turned out to actually be a shape-chaning android created by the Chameleon in the hopes that Peter would confide Spider-Man's identity to her. So she was actually dead. But still a spy.

So if he didn't know Spider-Man was Peter Parker, how did he know that the android had to look like Peter's mother...

[Matt Algren]

So if he didn't know Spider-Man was Peter Parker, how did he know that the android had to look like Peter's mother...

It all sounds insane to me, but I'm guessing that she reasoned that Peter Parker knows who Spider-Man is.

[Mac Danny]

So if he didn't know Spider-Man was Peter Parker, how did he know that the android had to look like Peter's mother...

Damn your Logic.

I guess it's the same answer as everyone else. Since Peter was Spidey's personal press agent he might know who Spider man is.

get a pen name Peter..

[Dom]

Slam Bradley has already won this contest. There is no point in further entries.

I wouldn't call it quits just yet. There are some good entries and a lot of people haven't joined yet.

[Michael P]

I'm in, with famous mother, Mrs. Bates.

We all go a little mad sometimes.

No, no. "Mother's not herself today."

Dibs on Nanny Ogg.

[Winslow]

"I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!"

heh . . .

[K'Nort]

Ever since I thought of this song this morning, I haven't been able to get it out of my head. So I guess it's my entry.

Besides, a definite highlight of CBR-NY this year at MOCCA was what felt like half the Comm board crammed to the front of the karaoke stage, doing this in true group caterwaul style.


Mama, just killed a man.
Put a gun against his head;
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead,

Mama, life had just begun.
But now Ive gone and thrown it all away...

Mama, ooo-ooo...
Didn't mean to make you cry...
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on.
As if nothing really matters...

[Gingold]

I'm in with the Mothers of Invention.

I'm in with a famous mom...Mary, the mother of Jesus.

[Sanagi]

Black-and-white TV was an idyllic world, and it brought us a timeless image of the perfect mother and wife.

Morticia Addams.

[thehod]

Thought this would've gone inside the first ten posts.

So I'm in with a classic, and of course its the 1959 Hammer version...

The Mummy

[Adam West]

Dibs on Jeanne Bates, who famously starred in the greatest horror flick in the 90s MOM (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100172/)

OK, my MILFs are:

[a. non]

[Mac Danny]

I'm in with Lily Munster.

If we don't vote for you, will we be punished for eternity?
*a. non starts stamping out a flame*

Sangi beat ya to it a couple posts up.

Sorry.

[Mac Danny]

I am surprised that some Mom's are missing. It will be interesting to see if they show up.

[Slam_Bradley]

Sangi beat ya to it a couple posts up.

Sorry.

Sanagi was in with Morticia Addams.

[Dreadstar]

Sangi beat ya to it a couple posts up.

Sorry.

Wrong ghoulish Mom.

[a. non]

Zoidberg: Hooray!

[Stellar]

OK, my MILFs are:
- Kelly Preston
- Salma Hayek
- Mariska Hargitay
- My wife

Can't argue with a set (no pun intended) like that.

[Slam_Bradley]

Wrong ghoulish Mom.

Carolyn Jones or Yvonne DeCarlo? What a choice.

[jessecuster3]

Ok I am in with Stifler's mom from the American Pie movies.

As you can see, here she is, and the famous pool table and her paramour, and then what he did on the pool table.

[Mac Danny]

Wrong ghoulish Mom.

Opps. My bad.

Quick look at a goth mom and this is what happens.

[Mac Danny]

Carolyn Jones or Yvonne DeCarlo? What a choice.

Every time I see your avatar I think it's a guy in a leather zipper mask. The contrast is startling.

[Dreadstar]

Carolyn Jones or Yvonne DeCarlo? What a choice.

Carolyn by a waist-length straight black hair.

[Slam_Bradley]

Carolyn by waist-length straight black hair.

At the time of the shows, I prefer Carolyn. But in the late 40s-early 50s DeCarlo was drop dead gorgeous.

[HomerJay]

At the time of the shows, I prefer Carolyn. But in the late 40s-early 50s DeCarlo was drop dead gorgeous.
Agreed. She is absolutely stunning in THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

[Sanagi]

Mixing up Munsters and Addamses... How disgraceful.

I'm sure it's obvious which one I'd choose.

[Spackling Compound]

I'm in with that liberated cool mom of the 70's...MAUDE!
http://kfcplainfield.com/tv/maude1.jpg

[Merey]

I'm going to with a bit of wishful thinking:

Lorelai Gilmore. She's the coolest TV mom I've encountered and I'm incredibly envious of the relationship she and Rory have. Plus, I can relate to the frustratingly antagonistic and sometimes heart-wrenching relationship she has with her own mother.

[Mike Smash!]

How's this one?

Great! Thank you.

[Jared_Humpherys]

A little late in the game to ask, but could I maybe get a shrink on mine?

[Spackling Compound]

Wow...the last entry is my favorite. Night gets my vote!

[jessecuster3]

HomerJay for me

[Winslow]

Tuesday is here!

Fun topic and fun entries.

Dreadstar and the motherbox tops the nerd entries for this week.

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7d/Motherbox.jpg

[thehod]

Motherbox was a stroke of genius.

Dreadstar gets it then

[JeffreyWKramer]

It's hard for me to not vote for Homer Jay this time around, but clever comics-related entries deserve the vote even more than does MILFy goodness. As such, my vote goes to Dreadstar.

[Mac Danny]

There were a lot of great avatars for this week. Still a little sad I didn't see Nick Soapdish and the Mother of Invention from The Tick.

While I love Night, Homer, and Dread's picks. I have to vote this week for Ed and the MOM tattoo.

Such a classic image geeked up by the text heart in his tagline.

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

Dreadstar in a landslide!

[Your Imaginary Pal]

Matt Algren

[K'Nort]

I tend to vote for the avatar I most covet, so definitely Dreadstar this week.

[a. non]

a vote for Sanagi

[Slam_Bradley]

Dreadstar and the mother box.

[Matt Algren]

Stellar's Helen Parr gets my vote.

And Slam's going to H-E-Double Hockey-Sticks.

[Dreadstar]

I'm going to vote for Ed's "Mom" tattoo. One of only 2 tattoos I've ever considered getting.

[SPAfreak]

One for Dreadstar and the Motherbox.

[Cei-U!]

Ironically, today is the tenth anniversary of my mom's death. And on that downer of a note, I vote for Dreadstar.

Cei-U!
I go back to bed and curl into a fetal position under the blankies!

[Gingold]

Gotta go for Dreadstar and the Mother Box.

[Ed Cunard]

Mike Smash.

[Mike Smash!]

I'm voting for Night and WIRE HANGERS!!!!

[Dom]

Dreadstar ftw

[Chris Nowlin]

I was just about ready to give it to 4thHorseman for mentioning Simpson's, but Winslow's is darn clever.

Winslow.

[Perry Holley]

I was going to choose the Mother Box, but Dreadstar beat me to it, so he gets my vote.

(honorable mentions to 4thHorseman and Stellar)

[dougputhoff]

Mother was the best part of the last season of The Avengers, so I'm going with Cei-U.

[GloryQuest]

Stellar gets my vote.

[MsSupaFan]

I vote Matt Algren.

[Night]

Honorable mentions to Sanagi & Your Imaginary Pal, but the vote goes to GloryQuest

Other thoughts
MotherShip
Motherlode
Motherboard
Mother Teresa
and the stereotypical "Hi Mom" when someone gets on camera.

[Bouncing Boy]

I'm voting for GozertheGozarian for his Ma Baker avatar.

[4thHorseman]

Dreadstar

Can't believe I didn't even have MotherBox pop into my head

[4thHorseman]

*doublepost*

[jessecuster3]

Dreadstar

Can't believe I didn't even have MotherBox pop into my head

Dreadstar

Didn't even think of Mother Box...

Mayor Daley, is that you?

[Mac Danny]

So, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Dreadstar won with the Mother Box.

Do you Concur?

[Dreadstar]

Yeah, I think I got this one. Something new before lunch, I promise.

[Stellar]

I know Dread's got this one, but I'm still going to vote for Winslow.

[4thHorseman]

Mayor Daley, is that you?

Lol, I've been noticing that it doesn't show my new post. SO I go and put a new one in, and bam, there's my original. ARGH
