Leagl, I do hope you don't plan to use that picture as your avatar, as the human arm appears to be clad in an acrylic sweater.

The horror!

Ugh, I went back and looked at the sweater and it's that awful bright-color-interknit-with-black look that was so cool in . . . 1986?

I really quite like the Rainbow Bright idea. As an avatar it would be much smaller (not as offensive) and it just sums leagl up so well.

Plus it apparently would annoy a whole bunch of people, and I'm all for that. It's much subtler than just flaming. Flaming is passe. Annoying is the Pisco Sour of the New FB!

Good list. I would replace Sublime with the Beastie Boy's - Paul's Botique and the Allman Bros. with Audioslave. And, if you're gonna pick a Neil Young album, why not Decade?

Decade doesn't include anything from the Rust Never Sleeps Record.

You think Rainbow Bright sums me up well? Ok, now I really am offended.:telloff:

People Magazine is for genitalia-less imbeciles. And for prepackaged, blue drink-drinking Hollywood chicks who would not know a Pisco Sour if someone cracked open their skulls and poured it into their empty fucking heads.

WTF is this obsession with Pisco Sours and what the hell is one anyway?

Christ, cut it out with the foofy trendmeister crap and just go get me a margarita.

The drink of this summer and every summer since man fermented sugar into alcohol until the day the sun implodes is whatever booze you like on the rocks with a splash of whatever mixer you like with it.

I don't drink anything that looks like windshield washer fluid unless I'm certain it will make me hallucinate.

Puh-leaze. Winshield washer fluid is invariably a cool color, like pale blue or green. The Pisco Sour is a warm color, some kind of lightish orange.

Of course, perhaps you are using some cheap prole windshield washer fluid that is yellow, or reddish. I wouldn't put it past you.

Edited to say, note how splendiferous I am with my retro flaming post. All of you can eat my dust.

If you're continuing to use that "Come Closer, I Don't Bite" quote, I think Rainbow Bright is out, even if it is you.

Try this one, which follows the "biting" theme:

Spree: Wish He'd Bite Her and Get it Over With, But Don't Worry, This is Pretty Tame

And, you could do a whole theme thing with future avatars, too.

LONDON, England (AP) -- The real Slim Shady stood up and made fun of Michael Jackson by dangling a baby doll over a hotel balcony.

Rapper Eminem also wore a surgical mask over his face Tuesday in an obvious swipe at Jackson, who dangled his baby, Prince Michael II, over a balcony railing in Berlin in November.

Eminem, who was staying at the Art House Hotel in Glasgow, Scotland, went further than Jackson by tossing the doll into the air and catching it.

"Empersonator," said a headline in the Daily Mirror tabloid, which published three photos. The New York Post's front page blared: "Oh baby! Eminem does his best Jacko."

Scotland's Daily Record tabloid said the incident occurred as fans and photographers gathered outside the hotel before Eminem's concert in the city Tuesday.

Eminem, whose nickname is Slim Shady, is on a British tour but has kept a low-profile between shows.

The Daily Record said he took over 50 rooms at the hotel for his entourage.

:laugh:

Dude, don't make me hunt you down to kick your ass. Bad mouthing Bruce is bad enough, but watch what you say about Katie.

And George Herbert Walker Bush didn't seem to think she was asking him softball questions when he unexpectedly popped into an interview she was having with his wife.

The best stuff is German. Clear, and it smells like beer.

That is so scary. I've never seen a nose shaped like that before.

Speaking of beer, is Heinekin the effing WORST beer in the world? The people drinking this swill are always the people (mostly guys) who think they are drinking a yuppie beer but are too conservative to drink Corona or Rolling Rock, which are equally disgusting. All three of these brands have become successful on marketing alone. They're the Nike of the beer industry. "Not only am I offering you shit, but you'll pay more for my shit." My grandfather grew up near Latrobe and said that Rolling Rock was the Milwaukee's Best of Pennsylvania (ok he didn't say EXACTLY that, but he said it was always known as swill)...

Actually, Beast Light brings back good memories.

And my college had Natural Light in the bottle...

Yes, yes and yes. Heinekin sucks. Corona - awful. In the 70s Rolling Rock was the local Penn swill. My dad, a connoisseur of local swill, drank RR during our time in Pennsylvania and then switched to Genessee Cream Ale once we moved to the Empire State.


Edited to add that I consumed way too much GCA in college...
