Avatar Contest for the Week of October 5th

[Citrus-Man]

Thanks for everyone who voted for me 'n' Flint. We appreciate it and hope you all have fun with the new theme. As an aside, it's a little-known fact that knowing is only one third of the battle. We let this error slide, however, as GI Joe was limited to the science of the '80s.

I've peeked at Huh?'s excellent Avatar Hall of Fame blog (http://cbravatarcontesthalloffame.blogspot.com/), and I didn't see the theme I have in mind. I hope it hasn't been done before, and if it has, well...you're all very strange.

This week's theme is:

FAT GUYS!

You can submit any well-known, obviously overweight male. They can be real or fictional. Heck, they can be from comics. Basically, any recognizable guy who's got more than that "spare tire." It can even be you, if you're large and in charge.

I'm looking for a thread that could sink a ship, people!

[GremlinClr]

"Wierd Al" Yankovic in the Micheal Jackson parody - Fat!

[K'Nort]

"Wierd Al" Yankovic in the Micheal Jackson parody - Fat!

It's been done because that was my entry last time. But I think it was pre-Zero Hour.

So no cheating and repeating, guys!

[GremlinClr]

So no cheating and repeating, guys!

So we need a new contest then?

[Lex]

I call Fat Albert!

[J Dog]

I have decided to move my Mimi Tachikawa avatar to my profile for a week so I will introduce a new avatar:

HOMER SIMPSON!

He is the Glutenous Maximus, the guy who ate all of Hell's donuts, the guy who brought many to shame.

The avy is from "Homer Goes To College". The scene is where he is filling out a form:

Homer: [writing] "...It was the most I ever threw up, and it changed my life forever."
Bart: You the man, Homer!
Homer: Thanks, boy!

He pastes a photo of him cramming (or vomiting on?) a cake. It's not a good choice, as look:

[K'Nort]

So we need a new contest then?

Absolutely not. Just don't use the same one that you yourself used last time is all I meant. Especially whomever won.

[StoneGold]

Is there any chance someone could give me a shrink on this while maintaining the animations?

[K'Nort]

Well to do a TOTAL 180 from Ms Hatcher, I present Baron Harkonnen. Maybe because it's close to Halloween. He creeped me the hell out in that film. Which was really unwatchable enough.

I'm not sure I can stand him all week, really.



Edit: A record! I couldn't stand him all day. I'm switching to classic Plastic Man sidekick Woozy Winks. READ THE CURRENT SERIES!

[J Dog]

That's Chris Farley in the SNL skit "Chipendale Reunion"!

[PatrickG]

Superman:

It's a bird!

It's a plane!

It'd be bigger if not for the blasted size limit.

[StoneGold]

I know Quitely draws his face a little chunky, but does he really count as fat?

[Celisasu]

I know Quitely draws his face a little chunky, but does he really count as fat?

Those fingers sure count as fat.

[StoneGold]

Those fingers sure count as fat.
Well, apparently he draws that eleventh finger with a chubby, if you catch my drift.

[J Dog]

How cliched.

Anyway, I see Homer, Superman, Chris Farley, Fat Albert, and Weird Al!

How about a sumo match?

[Justy]

I call forth Fat Elvis!!!!Now I need me an avatar.

[J Dog]

Justy, here you go:

http://www.grudge-match.com/Images/elvii.gif

Beats the hell out of whatever that thing is!

[Donald M.]

I call forth Fat Elvis!!!!Now I need me an avatar.

Okay, I remember when we did this theme before because I went with Fat Elvis and as I recall, it's the closest I ever came to winning.

Anyway, I'm in with Mr. Creosote from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life.

[GremlinClr]

Absolutely not. Just don't use the same one that you yourself used last time is all I meant. Especially whomever won.

Gotcha. I'll stick with mine as I wasn't even here before the board crashed so I didn't participate in that contest.

[Celisasu]

Time for me unleash the ultimate proof that God has abandoned us(actually I have worse but...um...I'll just go with this).


A fat bearded man in a Sailor Moon outfit!

[Spackling Compound]

Preacher's D'Aronique, the Allfather is my choice. Until my conscience gets me and I retract....

[J Dog]

My god, fat people are becoming scarier & scarier!

[Grant]

This is sure to be a loser but I have to go with Keith from The Office

Keith never failed to make me laugh.

http://homepage.mac.com/elliottday/theoffice/images/interviews/keith_int.jpg

[Citrus-Man]

^ That is a darn fine choice.


How cliched.

Does "once before" count as a cliché? :p

Fat guys will always be funny.

[Justy]

Justy, here you go:

http://www.grudge-match.com/Images/elvii.gif

Beats the hell out of whatever that thing is!

Hehe...

Thank you J Dog, however as you can see I've been practicing.

[Justy]

Okay, I remember when we did this theme before because I went with Fat Elvis and as I recall, it's the closest I ever came to winning.

Anyway, I'm in with Mr. Creosote from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life.

Oh! Good one...

It's wafer thin...

[Winslow]

I'm in with Hurley from LOST.

[Valmore]

He's a whole lotta stories tall and made of pure marshmallow... I give you:

The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man!

Who said Ray was useless?

[JeffreyWKramer]

That picture of interplanetary fitness, JABBA THE HUTT!!

[Gaz]

I choose geekly god of the lardass, KEVIN SMITH!

[JeffreyWKramer]

I choose geekly god of the lardass, KEVIN SMITH!

Ooooh, great choice! I wish I'd thought of that one!

[Gaz]

Time for me unleash the ultimate proof that God has abandoned us(actually I have worse but...um...I'll just go with this).


A fat bearded man in a Sailor Moon outfit!
It could be worse, he could be Venus! (Heels, plus she's totally the slutty one... :p )

[Gaz]

Ooooh, great choice! I wish I'd thought of that one!
It was him, or Knowles. And the pic clinched it.

[Slam_Bradley]

For me, nothing says fat guy like Fred Dukes...The Blob.

[Huh?]

For my choice, I give you 80's icon and Garbage Pail Kid:

Slobby Robbie

http://photos1.blogger.com/img/275/2502/1024/Slobby%20Robbie.jpg

[Beatnikman]

I know that Citrus-Man had me in mind when he decided on this theme, but can you really blame him? He had the opportunity to shower with my "more-to-love" bod for several years in the early 90's. And there's 30 pounds more of me now. Of course, there's about 70 pounds more of him.

A couple times a month someone will think they're clever and ask me when I'm due, and I always have the same answer: 1997.

So here's me and my LWA, when she was about 8 months pregnant with our first son. She doesn't really mind the picture because her size wasn't due to a steady diet of Hostess products and inactivity.

He wasn't called Biggie for nothin'.

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Mptv/1120/th-6365-0100.jpg

And I wonder if Scott Shaw! will enter himself.

[dougputhoff]

Time for me unleash the ultimate proof that God has abandoned us(actually I have worse but...um...I'll just go with this).


A fat bearded man in a Sailor Moon outfit!

That's the most disturbing av since the vasectomy av of a couple of years back.

[Ed Cunard]

I feel like I'm ripping Pho off, but, man, these cats loved food.


Verse 1):
(Prince Markie D): $3.99 for all you can eat?
Well, I'm a stuff my face to a funky beat!
(Kool Rock Ski): We're gonna walk inside, and guess what's up:
Put some food in my plate, and some Coke in my cup
(Prince Markie D): Give me some chicken, franks, and fries
And you can pass me a lettuce. I'm a pass it by
(Kool Rock Ski): So keep shoveling, (Ha!) onto my plate
Give me some sweets and lots of cake
(Prince Markie D): Give me some hot Macaroni and Cheese!
(Human Beat Box): Give me, some more food PLEASE!!!!
(Kool Rock Ski): Give me some baloney, salami, and ham
Toast with butter and strawberry jam
(Prince Markie D): I love it whether the food is cold or hot
Put a burger on the plate, and it'll hit the spot
(Kool Rock Ski): We'll eat everything. An incredible feat
$3.99 for all you can eat!

[twilight]

I pick Alfred Hitchcock,the master of suspense.

John Goodman as Walter Sobchak from THE BIG LEBOWSKIYou ever hear of Viet Nam, Larry?

[MacQuarrie]

There is only one.

When you're talking about fat guys, you're talking about the Fat Man.

Sydney Greenstreet.

http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/a/a8/SydneyGreenstreet.JPG

The original Fat Man. Here he is in The Maltese Falcon, but you may also know him as Ferarri in Casablanca.

The Fat Man.

[Royal]

You ever hear of Viet Nam, Larry?

What the fuck does Viet Nam have to do with anythng?

[MacQuarrie]

What the fuck does Viet Nam have to do with anythng?
My guess is it's a line from whatever movie the pic is from.

[Mike Smash!]

My guess is it's a line from whatever movie the pic is from.Yup. And so did was his response. :)

C'mon, Jim.. It's like Lenin says, you look for the person with the most to benefit and uh...and uh, you know!

[PatrickG]

Yo. Check out the new one.

It could be worse, he could be Venus! (Heels, plus she's totally the slutty one... :p )Well I could've pulled out a bearded fat man in a Mai Shiranui costume. :evilsmile

Fat Bastard

[Dr. Hfuhruhurr]

But, I know my chances are slim, so I shall vote for....

Well, I'm deciding upon StoneGold's "Chris Farley" avy. I loved him in Tommy Boy & Beverly Hills Ninja. But more shall come.

[JerrBear81]

[K'Nort]

Pretty please?

Doug -- I'm just getting a red x for Brando. And no fluffy cat. That may be the case for others too.

As opposed to, you know, we just hate you and don't want you to win.

[Celisasu]

I'm only seeing a red X as well.

[Paradox]

I'm just seeing a red X AND I hate doug.

What do I win? :D

[Citrus-Man]

He's kind of old news, but I'm going to go with the Numa Numa Guy.

Numa Numa flash movie. (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/numa.php)

[Greg Hatcher]

I'm in with the World's Largest Detective, star of stage, screen, radio, TV, and even (briefly) a newspaper comic strip scripted by John Broome... Nero Wolfe, weighing in at "a seventh of a ton" according to his assistant Archie.

This depiction is from a painting commissioned by the Wolfe Pack, a fan organization similar to the Baker Street Irregulars. I occasionally contribute to their quarterly 'zine, The Gazette, and someday I'm getting to New York for their annual Black Orchid banquet.

http://www.jabootu.com/images/nero.jpg

[dougputhoff]

I found it on the imdbpage:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078788/photogallery-mptv-0

It's the black-and-white photo on the top left: the one in which Brando looks disturbing like Uncle Fester.

[Night]

That picture of interplanetary fitness, JABBA THE HUTT!! Will trump that with Pizza the Hut... who was reported to self-canabolization when no other food around.

So vote for me, or else ...
... or else what? ...
... tell them vinny ...
... or else Pizza is gonna send out for you

[Night]

I found it on the imdbpage:

[SPAfreak]

"Kif. Inform the men I've made it with a woman."

I'm in with Zapp Brannigan, everyone's favorite girdle-wearing 25 star general.

[J Dog]

Now Pizza the Hut is kinda freaky.

So, we have here a vomiting yellow guy, a fat man in a Sailor Moon outfit, Elvis, Chris Farley dancing, a Pizza-based man, and John Goodman with a gun!

Oh my God!

[Jeremy A. Patterson]

My avatar is that of KING KONG BUNDY, a true heavyweight in the circa-1985 WWF!


J.A.P.

[J Dog]

You mean the guy that in an episode of "Married... with Children" tore Bud apart like a rag doll after his costume hit his groin?

COOL!

[Jeremy A. Patterson]

Well, the BUNDYS on MARRIED... WITH CHILDREN were reportedly named after KING KONG BUNDY!

J.A.P.

[Michael P]

The late, lamented, lovely John Candy as Del Griffith in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

[dougputhoff]

Thanks Guys!

Ladies and Gentleman, from "Apocalypse Now"

MARLON BRANDO!

The horror, indeed.

[SteelTownr]

I'm going with Chris Penn.

Most of the avatars so far are of folks who were just always fat.

Chris used to be skinny.

It is pretty funny, he is on HBO this month in "Footloose" and "Starsky and Hutch". You would swear that he is two different people.

Mark B.

[Jared_Humpherys]

I'm considering scanning in "Rape-bo" from Jhonen Vasquez's Filler Bunny comic #3, but I'm not sure the tagline would be received well...

[J Dog]

For some reason, not to many people like this contest.

[Ed Cunard]

I'm voting for MacQ. Classic fat.

[Dennis K]

MacQuarrie gets my vote. Classic.

[dougputhoff]

I thought today was Monday. Or did I sleep through it?

[GremlinClr]

I thought today was Monday. Or did I sleep through it?

Yea it's Monday. Voting doesn't start until tomorrow.

[Ed Cunard]

I may forget by tomorrow.

[Dennis K]

Yea it's Monday. Voting doesn't start until tomorrow.


Voting on the wrong day? OH THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!

[J Dog]

I'm tied between Donald M., Dennis K, & Valmore.

I hope someone votes for me, cause tommorrow, I'm going back to the Mimi avatar.

[J Dog]

I'm going back to the Mimi avatar right now. I'm out of the contest then.

[StoneGold]

Voting on the wrong day? OH THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!
It's all Jdog's fault. He's been making like three votes a day since like day 2. Somebody's gotta put that boy on ritalin.

[J Dog]

It's all Jdog's fault. He's been making like three votes a day since like day 2. Somebody's gotta put that boy on ritalin.
What's it to you!

Now, I'm not going to vote for you!

And, for the nine millionth time: It's J Dog! Not J-Dog, Jdog, or JDog.

[J Dog]

And I am already pepped up on teenage hormones!

[StoneGold]

And I am already pepped up on teenage hormones!
That's what the ritalin's for.

[J Dog]

That's what the ritalin's for.
Did you ever get ritalin?

[K'Nort]

Did you ever get ritalin?

They hadn't invented it yet. We were tragically left to develop self-control and personalities. While our teachers and parents actually had to teach us how to behave.

[J Dog]

They hadn't invented it yet. We were tragically left to develop self-control and personalities. While our teachers and parents actually had to teach us how to behave.
Oh, so that means you can go around acting like what you are, and those born after ritalin was created HAVE to take the damn drug!

I am going to rebel soon.

[GremlinClr]

They hadn't invented it yet. We were tragically left to develop self-control and personalities. While our teachers and parents actually had to teach us how to behave.

Crazzzzzy talk! It's much easier to dope your kids than develop actual parenting skills.

[JerrBear81]

I'ma lose this contest *cries*!

[J Dog]

I'm out of the contest.

Well, I never thought of joining any contest anyway.

One less person to vote on.

[Spackling Compound]

They hadn't invented it yet. We were tragically left to develop self-control and personalities. While our teachers and parents actually had to teach us how to behave.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA...you'll burn for that one, girl. BUT HELLA GOOD!

[Mike Smash!]

Ok... you people are nuts.

[dougputhoff]

I'm going back to the Mimi avatar right now. I'm out of the contest then.

DEAR GOD, WHY?

[JeffreyWKramer]

I'm going back to the Mimi avatar right now. I'm out of the contest then.

Precisely WTF is Mimi? Some anime critter, I suppose, but could you provide detail?

[dougputhoff]

She's a character from Digimon. I think she's the one with the cowgirl hat and the annoying Southern accent. I keep hoping Mewtwo strangles her telepathically.

[Grant]

She's a character from Digimon. I think she's the one with the cowgirl hat and the annoying Southern accent. I keep hoping Mewtwo strangles her telepathically.

I'm even more confused.

[JeffreyWKramer]

She's a character from Digimon. I think she's the one with the cowgirl hat and the annoying Southern accent. I keep hoping Mewtwo strangles her telepathically.

Thankfully I've never watched DIGIMON, so I know nothing of which you speak. But thank you for the info.

[StoneGold]

That's what happens when you try to eat at the grownup's table.

[dougputhoff]

Thankfully I've never watched DIGIMON, so I know nothing of which you speak. But thank you for the info.

I've watched about three minutes of it. That was all I could stand without wanting to rip my eyes out. One of the most annoying TV shows ever.

[Grant]

That's what happens when you try to eat at the grownup's table.

I'm still not allowed. It's me and my 21 year old younger brother and my cousin's kids.

[Crinos]

From Fullmetal Alchemist its Gluttony!!!

Also, this is the first Avatar I cropped all by myself! YAY ME!

[dougputhoff]

It's now Tuesday--on the East Coast, anyway--so it's time to start voting.

I'm going with Celisasu and his fat guy dressed as Sailor Moon. As I wrote earlierm it's the most disgusting av in a couple of years.

[SteelTownr]

Beatnikman for me.

It was so nice of him to stuff that pillow down his shirt so his Wife wouldn't feel bad while she was pregnant.

That is a pillow, right?

Mark B.

[Grant]

I'm going with SteelTownr's Chris Penn.

[Mike Smash!]

I'm going to vote for HomerJay's Walter.

"Is this your homework, Larry?"

[MacQuarrie]

I vote for K'nort's Woozy Winks.

[ragnarok_2012]

I vote for Mike Smash because that Taft is one bad mutha...

[Mike Smash!]

I vote for Mike Smash because that Taft is one bad mutha...Shut yo' Mouth!

[twilight]

I vote GremlinClr

[Grant]

Shut yo' Mouth!

I'm just talkin 'bout Taft.

[dougputhoff]

I'm just talkin 'bout Taft.

I can dig it.

[Fabian]

MikeSmash for the Taft

[J Dog]

You all can bicker on and on about me. But remember these words:

I'm not into contests and I don't like participating. But I am into voting and causing a small stir in things.

[J Dog]

But for my vote:

I have to choose StoneGold for his tribute to Chris Farley. He was in two of my favorite films of all time: Tommy Boy and Beverly Hills Ninja.

[JeffreyWKramer]

My vote goes to Gaz, for Kevin Smith.

Honorable mention to Spack. PREACHER avs are always a good thing.

[Ed Cunard]

I'm still voting for MacQ.

[GremlinClr]

My vote goes to leigh_ann1982 for Comic Book Guy.

[Spackling Compound]

You all can bicker on and on about me. But remember these words:

I'm not into contests and I don't like participating. But I am into voting and causing a small stir in things.
Oh..no...not...again....

[Spackling Compound]

Citrus Man has my vote. Thank GOD he didn't include sound.

[JeffreyWKramer]

You all can bicker on and on about me. But remember these words:

I'm not into contests and I don't like participating. But I am into voting and causing a small stir in things.

I suppose it's nice you have a hobby. It probably keeps you from going out and egging cars or spiking people's tires or something like that.

[Huh?]

I vote for Stone Gold. That Farley av is awesome.

[Donald M.]

Hey, hey, hey, I'm voting for Lex!

[dougputhoff]

I suppose it's nice you have a hobby. It probably keeps you from going out and egging cars or spiking people's tires or something like that.

LOL.

Good point.

[Dreadstar]

I will vote for StoneGold if he promises to get rid of the avatar as soon as the contest is over.

[Greg Hatcher]

I gotta go with Jim MacQ for Sydney Greenstreet. That was my first choice. And he played MY avatar in the 1949 Nero Wolfe radio show.

[Winslow]

MacQ's is classic . . . . but I'm voting for Stonegold's Chris Farley.

[Night]

Voting for GremlinClr with Weird Al's Fat


My other idea would have been Street Fighter's E.Honda... guy so big they had to name a car after him. :D

[MacQuarrie]

You all can bicker on and on about me. But remember these words:

I'm not into contests and I don't like participating. But I am into voting and causing a small stir in things.
Did I miss something?

Yesterday, out of nowhere and in response to nothing, you said
For some reason, not to many people like this contest.
(Actually, it's been a pretty successful week for the avatar contest if you ask me.)

Then a few people jumped the gun and voted early, and you said
I'm tied between Donald M., Dennis K, & Valmore.

I hope someone votes for me, cause tommorrow, I'm going back to the Mimi avatar.[quote]
Seven minutes later, you said
[quote]Quitting the Contest
I'm going back to the Mimi avatar right now. I'm out of the contest then.
StoneGold cracked a joke about your habit of voting early, and you went off on him, leading into a discussion of ritalin. Then people went back to voting. Within fifteen minutes, you declared
I'm out!
I'm out of the contest.

Well, I never thought of joining any contest anyway.

One less person to vote on.
That led to a discussion of who your avatar is and various people's opinions of Digimon. That conversation petered out yesterday evening, and people went back to voting.

TEN HOURS LATER, again out of nowhere and apropos of nothing, you again announce that you're not in the contest:
You all can bicker on and on about me. But remember these words:

I'm not into contests and I don't like participating. But I am into voting and causing a small stir in things.
Two minutes later, you're voting in the contest.

So unless you're getting a lot of hostile PMs or your participation in the avatar contest is under discussion somewhere else, I don't frigging get it.

(A) Nobody is "bickering on and on" about you.
(B) If you're not into contests, why do you vote multiple times and days before the deadline?
(C) How many times do you think you have to quit? Three? Four?
(D) If you quit the contest, why bother voting?
(E) I don't know if you've noticed, but "causing a small stir in things" is not the best way to win friends. Nobody needs the drama.

Please, make up your mind. In or out. If you're in, play by the rules. If you're out, be out. Whatever you choose, just please chill the heck out already.

[J Dog]

Alright, alright, alright!

Sheesh. Every time I do something, I anger someone.

Please don't respond to this.

[JeffreyWKramer]

Please don't respond to this.

Okay, I won't.

... oops!

[Slam_Bradley]

I vote for MacQ. I think I used Greenstreet a couple of times.

[Spackling Compound]

The guy is sixteen, gentlemen.
Do we have to cut him slack?

[JeffreyWKramer]

The guy is sixteen, gentlemen.
Do we have to cut him slack?

Given how we could be, I think we *are* cutting him slack.

[Spackling Compound]

Given how we could be, I think we *are* cutting him slack.

I'm still lying in wait.
Restraint.
Discipline.
And lots of typing and untyping!

[Slam_Bradley]

I was always of the opinion that if you want to play with the big boys, you need to act more than your age.

[Dreadstar]

I was always of the opinion that if you want to play with the big boys, you need to act more than your age.

So, maybe some semi-slack.

Remember, we've had newcomers we thought were borderline retarded who turned out to be board darlings and award winners.

You never know.

[JeffreyWKramer]

Stalking, bondage and discipline. Spack, you nasty perv, you!!

Sure. After we whipped you in to shape you were fine.

[MacQuarrie]

Alright, alright, alright!

Sheesh. Every time I do something, I anger someone.

Please don't respond to this.
No, seriously, I was asking a question. I don't get it. Explain it to me please.

What happened to upset you so much?

[Dreadstar]

Sure. After we whipped you in to shape you were fine.


A touch, I do confess!

[Beatnikman]

Beatnikman for me.

It was so nice of him to stuff that pillow down his shirt so his Wife wouldn't feel bad while she was pregnant.

That is a pillow, right?

Mark B.
Umm ... SURE! In fact, I'm such a good husband that I went ahead and left it in there between pregnancies, so I'd be ready to go when we had kid #2. But now I've grown kind of attached to it.


I'm voting for Smash's Taft, by the way.

[JerrBear81]

I vote for Jeff's Jabba the Hutt.

[Dennis K]

Do I have to vote for MacQ again or has it been determined that voting early doesn't constitute an international crisis?

[J Dog]

Well, I do. And for the last two times I have made people angry. So, I'm just saying that I suck.

[MacQuarrie]

Well, I do. And for the last two times I have made people angry. So, I'm just saying that I suck.
Not angry. Baffled and confused.

[JeffreyWKramer]

Well, I do. And for the last two times I have made people angry. So, I'm just saying that I suck.


I'm gonna just leave that one alone.

[J Dog]

No, seriously, I was asking a question. I don't get it. Explain it to me please.

What happened to upset you so much?
Every time I tend to do something, someone asks me "Why do you do that?" What I like to do is just ignore it. But people tend to ask me over and over about that. Its like they want me to do what THEY want. That was in real life, and it shows here.

[Dreadstar]

Not angry. Baffled and confused.

Not to be confused with "confused and baffled."

[Donald M.]

Nobody cares what you do, we just want it to make sense.

[Slam_Bradley]

It's dangerous to confuse your baffles. All the water may escape.

[K'Nort]

In the meantime, Greg Hatcher edges out StoneGold for my vote. Nero Wolfe is class.

My God, IWarrior's got a brother! :D ;)

[J Dog]

I never made sense?

[Slam_Bradley]

I never made sense?


Not once that I've noticed.

[Dreadstar]

I never made sense?

Truthfully? Bluntly?


A lot of your stuff is full of non sequitors and unfinished or half-conceived thoughts, sprinkled liberally with poor grammar.

It really can be tough to figure out what you're trying to say.

Please, that wasn't intended to be mean or insulting. Just a blunt observation.

Try to put some thought into proofreading what you've put down from a third party point of view before hitting the submit button.

[StoneGold]

Well, I do. And for the last two times I have made people angry. So, I'm just saying that I suck.
I can't speak for MacQ, but you didn't make me angry. I just found your... shall we say lack of focus hillarious.

[SPAfreak]

In the meantime, Greg Hatcher edges out StoneGold for my vote. Nero Wolfe is class.

Chris Farley dancing in a Chippendale's outfit beats your "class" any day. Stonegold gets another vote from me.

[Typo Lad]

Okay kids, let's all play nice.

J, if the big kids don't want to play with you, you can't make them.

[Dreadstar]

Okay kids, let's all play nice.

Hey, I was being nice.

[StoneGold]

Okay kids, let's all play nice.

J, if the big kids don't want to play with you, you can't make them.
So you're telling him to just lie back and enjoy it?

[Spackling Compound]

I never made sense?
It's like reading Snow_sabre's quotes. I imagine you being one who has a crude understanding of the English language but because we're sort of nice, we tolerated it and want to be kind.

However, since you've kind of proven to be a little..unstable...even for a teenage boy.
If you're not a teenage boy...you are this week's answer to mwm or iwarrior. And I may have to cast my vote for auto-ban based on past experiences of seeing such posters go from innocent to weird to suck.

[Typo Lad]

So you're telling him to just lie back and enjoy it?

And think of England.

I think you (and others) are going a bit far in comparing J Dog to mwm and iWarrior. By a longshot.

At the end of the day, J wants to be a part of the community and is trying to figure out what the boundaries are.

mwm knew what the boundaries were and did not care, whereas iwarrior was mentally incapable of understandign what a boundry was.

HUGE difference.

[west3man]

Too many pages to flip through, at this point, but it'd be cool if someone had chosen the super-obese vampire from the first Blade movie.

I can't find a pic, anywhere.

And J (which is also the first name of a certain -Bolt) is to be given some slack if he's a kid.
If he isn't a kid, he's iwarrior.
If iwarrior was 16, heck, he'd probably still be on here.

Yeah, J's a little on the wonky, spastic side, but he's not mean spirited or anything. He just has attention span issues. It's not like he's calling female posters whores or anything.

[Arrjay]

This post is irrelavent. Don't look at it.

But what about SuperJesse?

[StoneGold]

Can someone scale this down to an effective and acceptable avatar size?

I'd truly appreciate it.

http://mail.google.com/mail/?view=att&disp=attd&attid=0.2&th=105b99a067ccc1df
That doesn't work.

[Typo Lad]

You noticed that I didn't mention that.

Draw your own conclusion counciler.

[Arrjay]

That doesn't work.

Really?

I wonder why.

Because you linked to your Google-Mail acct silly man.

[Dreadstar]

Sure, here ya go:

[StoneGold]

Because we'd have to have your gmail password to access it. Two options, host it on a site like photobucket, or download it to your computer, then upload it to CBR as an attatchment.

Yes well, we all knew that.

Oh, I need to vote.

Because I fear him.

Y'know, I'm just not gonna be able to compete folks. I can't get this pic up and besides it's actually a pic of a really fat woman. I'd be breaking the rules.

And now I can ditch Jabba. That way I can once again post sex stuff without Rin getting squicked out... or, at least no more squicked than usual by my posts.

[HomerJay]

Sigh...a member of the ONE VOTE club again. At least my one vote came from Mike Smash who actually won so that has to count for something.

[JeffreyWKramer]

I think there should be a Nobel Prize for perviliciousness.

Let's face it, most people would pay a lot more attention to that than they do who won the Nobel in Economics.

By letting Mike Smash take the vote, you're letting the terrorists win.

Um, you're not old enough to be a Democrat, are you?

[Mike Smash!]

I am a Democrat!
My condolences.

You guys robbed the 2000 election! If Gore won, we would not be in this mess!I'm going to respond to this as if you're being serious.

In short: Gore lost his own homestate and Bill Clinton's homestate...decisively. Gore ran a lame campaign with no clear message and didn't even capitalize on Bush's horrible record in Texas. He didn't call for a full state recount in Florida and didn't call for any investigation into the alleged fraud and voter intimidation there and nor did any Democratic Senator. The Supreme Court stopped the recount and voted in Bush themselves. And finally, 8 times as many registered Democrats voted for Bush than for Nader; in Florida alone, Nader got 97,000 votes from voters of all kinds. Bush got 250,000 votes from registered FL Democrats.

How about instead of looking for other people to blame, you accept responsibility for a shitty campaign and look for ways to fix it next time? Or how about repairing an election system that even ALLOWS a spoiler effect? How about yelling at those Democrats who voted for Bush? How about not talking about voters like you own their support and their vote and work on trying to earn it?

[K'Nort]

Um, you're not old enough to be a Democrat, are you?

Well he's certainly too young to be a Republican.
