So howzabout an image gallery. Members' pics... I could donate the space and maintain the page if there were enough interest and Porfiry provided a link.

Well, you can attach files to posts. I've been wondering if a picture thread would emerge, but so far no-one has been brave enough. :)

I'm glad I guilted a couple more replies to this thread, good on ya.

As for pictures uh-uh, no-way, no, never - I don't even like looking into mirrors! BUT - I'd love to see you-all.
Cheers
Teri

Peace.

Terri,

It's not a matter of beauty queen or wicked witch but of putting face with thought.

We are all born with what we have and we have to make do with that until we leave this realm, unless you have gobs of money. If that is the case then you can buy what you desire; most of us do not fit that profile though.

Would a partial written description do?

What about "I have smiling eyes"? (I have been told that...no, really, I'm not making it up)
or short blond hair, or toes that don't have the second toe longer than the first toe?

I'd say very in between beauty queen and wicked witch.

Wet1, I think you should post your photo first - I'm not picking on you - but if you say that looks don't matter, show us yours.:D

Now I have a very cheeky grin on my face!

I just thought of somewhere I could get a good mug shot like pic from ... maybe my posting it will end this picture posting paranoia and debate.

(Is there any way to have it displayed in the post?)

I was hoping that other people might post too. I guess that was pretty optomistic. Instead I killed the thread discussion and all ...

Am I really that ugly to scare everyone off? :(

It's a conspiracy actually. We have all been sending private messages back and forth, discussing methods that would induce you to post your picture while believing it was your idea. None of us had any intention of putting our pictures on display. :D

Actually... I just haven't taken the time to scan one. I will, as you have boldly stepped forth to start the trend!

Peace.

Am I really that ugly to scare everyone off?

Naw, you'll do. It's just... weeeeeellllll, it's the red hair, Sci. What can I say??


JUST kidding! ;)

Thanks for sharing,

CB

I may not be able to post a picture at the moment but I will post a .wav.



SPOILER DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T DL THE FILE


I didn't just fart, I couldn't figure out what to say...

:bugeye: <----But I can tell you that I don't look like my friend over here

;) Aha! The picto-forum! Do I smell idea-plagiarism....hmmm...I've got a bone to pick with you, Porifry. But still, a great idea. I have to agree, because really it was my idea. I would love pictures. I can look pretty hot at the right angle. Ah, those darn angles.

I'd like to /777 post a picture...now wouldn't that be 'interresant?';)

...and for those interested in hair, warts, and all...

Finally another brave soul! Good for you wet ...

(not that posting a file saying you just ripped one doesn't have its own bravery ; )

Ah, not brave, just lazy. It took a while to get the scanner warmed up, drivers updated, ect.

Don't expect too much...:cool:

Ah, finally...

Porfiry,
Could maybe we move the comments to the suggestion forums and leave just the pic's here?

http://www.marshallart.com/fun/Professor.jpeg

Teri2,
Now I have a very cheeky grin on my face!

Your cheeky grin has been called and raised.
And now it is your turn to lay the cards on the table...

Come on Q, you can do better than that and actually post your mug!

http://marshallart.com/fun/Arnold.jpeg

...and while we're at it, where is yours, Porfiry?

How the bloody hell did you get my picture!

They tell me I was nude that day - I can't remember because I'd had a drink or two.

And by the way, the feathers are fake, no bird was harmed in any way to make that elaborate headdress.


You are all really brave!
Cheers to everyone
PS Happy Valentine's day.

Teri

...and while we're at it, where is yours, Porfiry?

I, fortunately, have neither digital camera, scanner, real camera, daguerrotype, nor existing photo. I'd prefer my existence be unrecorded.


... actually, that's not true. I have a photo somewhere, but it's lost in the sea of detritic filth that is my room. If I locate it, I'll do something with it.

One could say that I inspired everyone to post their pictures even though I only posted a sound.

Rest assured I'll have more things to say.

Porfiry,

Yeah, yeah, I thought of that excuse too.:D

Pollux V

Are you trying to say that your sound is simular to the image you would post?

I'm not a fart if that's what you're asking.

Thort I'd join the brave few and stick my mush on here as well!

I don't have any photos kicking around...
And that lens instrument connected to my PC isn't really a webcam, it's actually something to gauge how close my nose is to the screen through petty lies, like telling you I don't have a webcam.

You might be able to find a picture of me but you would have to look for a profile at a particular Free webspace/email location on the internet. (I'm not saying which one, but it's not too hard to find)

Although I will supply a picture that could be anyone that doesn't show themselves because I got boredand drew it the other day.

The real Qhttp://ctrost.simplenet.com/wintpics/alexdrng.jpg

What’s the matter, no testicles?

Or is it true what they are saying, that you and Mr. G are one and the same?

This was a great idea!

So great to see what you look like, especially Banshee and Wet1. Looking good there. :p
But I couldn´t see Pollux picture, just some weird text came up.
I don´t know if there´s any point for me to post a picture, since my site is stuffed with them...but we have just gotten a digital camera, so maybe I will post something new soon. This one is from 2000. :)

Q, you coward. :o

Bebelina,

WOW! Check out those lips! Babalicous!

Hi guys and gals. I'd like to join with the BRAVE CLUB ;) What to loose?...

here... i am...
http://ismu.8m.com/phreaker.jpg

:D :D

Since I don't have very many recent pictures of me to choose from, I'll just post a scan of my driver's license pic (I bet others aren't brave enough to do that ;)), which'd be from about a year ago.

What arre you saying?

If the majority of those at the forums don't have the guts to put up a carefully prepared picture of themselves, how will they have the bollocks to present a drivers license or passport photo? You've got some 'nads, man!

What is wrong with all you people?
Anyone would think you're scared or something.

And don't give me that recent photo rubbish! Go into a photo booth, spend three and a half pounds and you've got nice new photos, ready to scan.

Bebelina
You siren, you!

PolluxV posted a .wav file if I'm not mistaken!

Peace to all!
:)

yeah I tried to post another but I can't say anything over about five seconds before the size of the file is too big. Plus, bebelina do you have a better picture? We can only see half of your faaaace. I'll still fight to see if I can get a pic up here, I have to find a scanner...

Ismu!! The pic doesn't work! Post it as an attachment!! Congratulations I'm still waiting for your pic, and like you I can be quite the handsome devil from...a few different angles at least, if you want to go about it like that.


Hoth Spock

Lookalikes?

I can be quite the handsome devil from...a few different angles at least,

I didn't know that farts could be viewed from different angles.

Oops... the server is down... :(...
here it goes... attachment...

Hoth,
I yoinked mine from the school online directory ... not exactly a great pic. I note you are not brave enough to post the whole license ... not that that is the point of the thread.

Bebelina,
Redheads rule! Even (especially?) ones that just end up that way by good judgement rather than genetic accident.

Ismu,
I thought you were joking and were saying you looked like:
:D

That would be some big teeth! Though you seem to like being a cartoon regardless ...

Oh, wet1, anything can be viewed from a different angle, as long as you know where to look!

;) can't get to my scanner right now to put up some more recent pictures, so here is one from a long time ago.

Congrats,
Is that really you? It looks like something from a magazine and kinda like one of those famous people you see all the time, but aren't exactly sure who they are ...

Isn´t that Celine Dion? :bugeye:

;) Oh, yeah, Scilosopher, that's me. It's all me, and it's all natural, mind you. Don't you go asking for followups, you pervert. This is one Jersey Girl who only lets the covers go down so far...


*Hurrumph*

;) OK, Bebelina, you've cracked the case. It's Celine all right. It's Celine Dion and I'm not ashamed to say it. Scilosopher, I know, you're a little embarassed now, you were attracted to none other than Celine Dion. If you want real pictures of me, well I'm looking for that 'right angle', and I'll probably post it tommorow, or later today.

Wow, I was worried for a second that someone might be more attractive than I am ;)

I was also wondering who the lucky bloke is that snapped the picture.

Congrats,
I was suspicious more than attracted. Besides I have no intention of trying to pick people up on the internet. Heard to many strange stories even if I considered that a good way to go about it in the first place. She's a little skinny for my taste ...

Here´s a picture from yesterday that I had some fun with today. I had no make up on, so I have doodled on the eyeshadow and the veins. ...oh, but that´s a lie, I might just admit that I´m a vampire, and that my veins show a little bit more after fiesting on ...a human....*burp*

Yeah, what can i say... :rolleyes: Unfortunately, I live in 2D world, together with bart simpson, cartman, tiny toons, etc... the flatlanders! :D.

Bebe, you're HOT! ... oh... no... I'm burned... help... :eek:

That's some picture, beb. Did you fiddle with the hair on a computer or draw it out and scan it in?



Or is it natural:bugeye: (I love this bugeye guy, its the funniest smiley face I've ever SEEN)

I did a background with curls and strings, then put a filter, bevel and emboss I think it is. Then I used the smudgetool to draw out my own hair, and also added painted hair so that it would blend with the background, then I used plastic wrap, to wrap it up. :D It´s my favourite filter.

Ismu, but didn´t those Kalahini..or whatever..:p...had some ugly disgusting thing on their back, a rotten something? :D

Bebelina,
I would think if you were sucking contents of the human heart out of the body you would take love not blood ... though then again that might give you heartburn.

Ismu,
If you live with the simpsons - can I come over and hang out? Maybe we can go to Moe's and I'll buy you a beer.

So, at the moment, fellow sciforumers, it appears that I can't post my picture until monday. My mum plans to bring home a digital camera from work (no...she isn't stealing) but until then I hope this basic description will decide:

Eyes: Green, soul-piercing

Hair: Grey blond, captain kirk-ish

Doesn't wear "gay, obviously nerdy horn-rimmed glasses" Prefers khakis and black t-shirts sometimes with a compliment of a black hawaiin one.

Not overtly tall, about 5ft 5 or six in (but will be taller and more intimidating later)

Has bushy eyebrows that must be smoothed over from time to time (its all that I can find about my face that is jewish)

I invite anyone to copy this little transcript and fill it in with their own description!

Here's a description of me:

Shirt: Tee-shirt (mainly black, blue, or white) khakis with yarn tied to them, multi-colored socks, red and white sneakers with yarn tied to them, or if I'm in the mood for something more elegant, denim 'ghetto' shoes. Maybe a shirt over the T-shirt; for example a 'good and plenty' pajama top I bought at Target. Very rarely will I wear a sweater anymore, I wear hats though. My pants (which may be gray or beige) will have safety pins on the knees with multi-colored paperclips on them.

I'll occasionaly wear ribbon or shoelaces around my wrists, I have a black soviet-issue military watch. Plastic goldfish on an elastic cord arund my neck.

HEIGHT: 5'10" (I'm shrinking, though)
WEIGHT: 215 pounds (mainly muscle which I have no clue as to its origins.)
HAIR: Brown and thick
EYES: either blue or green, depending on my shirt. Yet dreamy nonetheless...

My eyes are always green...

Weight is 145, but I'm not even chubby OR muscular, I have no idea where it is.




I guess it could possibly be inside my head, since I have a HUGE ego.

Congrats, what´s up with all the yarn and paperclips attached to youe clothings?
:bugeye:

Punk?????????????????????

it appears that cyberpunk IS alive! It's taken the form of an egotystical HYPOCRITICAL new yorker.

Hey Pollux Is there any chance that Congrat's is one of your Schoolmates ????????? I just had this thought,... some girl hears you mention Sciforums.... and Viola.... she just has to get involved lol

Cowards you are, all of you.

Bebelina, wonderful pictures, keep it going!

Come on people, pictures, no descriptions...!!!;)

Stryder/pollux,
Am I the egotistical punk from NYC? Or am I totally in the weeds?

scilosopher,

Or am I totally in the weeds?

I don't know. How far into Central Park did you make it?

While I'm at it, we should reserve the posts for actual pictures of members. Remember this thread will be here for a while...

Well, scilo, if you've been repeatedly insisting that I'm gay because of a certain use of the word in a poem then yes, you are the person I was talking about. Buuut upon searching ravenously through the forums I can find no hostile statement from you directed at me . Why would you think that you're the bad guy? You've done nothing wrong! Did you see the backslash post? Congrats totally singled me out....

Scilosopher,

I have to admit I overlooked the statement. I just thought it was directed at someone else... Someone with paperclips lol

Of course it's understandible that you wondered with NYC as your locale.

Yes Congrats, the Punk statement was directed at you (Just the word "punk", not the "Egotistical" piece) as I just thought that the whole paperclip thing was a kind of Genre.

As for Pollux...
Well you do seem to have gotten off on the wrong foot with a few people. I understand it as the usual thing that can occur, the mis-reading of something written in text, because the person reading it tends to use a different context to read it.

Perhaps at the end of this page, you lot can settle your differences and see that none of you truly bear hard feelings.
(Last thing we need is a Sciforums brawl!)

Well I'm not angry at her, we're just two very egotystical people, one that vents [her] thoughts a little easier than I do. We have our differences...and our similiarites. I just had to say she was a hypocrite for saying that I was one, I just couldn't quite hold it in any longer. Plus that whole gay thing (under art and culture, poerty arena) frustrated me even though I did think it was hilarious, as well as her little post on the backslash thread. I was laughing hysterically while shouting: Hypocrite! Hypocrite!

I guess I'm done:bugeye:


Maybe not though...BTW I'll have my picture on monday, I'm photographing meeself today and will have the pictures transferred from a certain mother's office to a certain sciforumer's home.

PLUS you know what I realized? I'm one of the 'elder' sciforumers, I look all around me and see newbies! Newbies! I shall now endeavour to find my first post, that will be quite the adventure...

;) Paperclips and yarn are very punk, yes. (hmm...)


Here's the deal-

1. I'm not a girl, I'm a guy. Always have been, always will.

2. I do not go to Pollux's school. I do not live in Maine, orNew York (Harlem) for that matter. I live in suburban NJ, center of all thimgs over-priced, commercialized, and humdrum.

3. The 'gay' comment was not directed to Pollux as an insult. Sure, it got mean, but that always happens with me. I'm being funny, so I think, but then I always end up having fun at others' expense. So I apologize, Pollux, for my clumsiness in not kmowing when to stop the joke, and perhaps because I am gay, I didn't exactly know that a gay joke would be taken badly. See, I'd take it as a compliment.

4. I'm not a punk, I'm more of a crazed artist.

5. I never thought Pollux was gay! No one really did. If straight people weren't so paranoid they'd see it wasn't such a big deal if someone started a joke.

6. The Backslah comment- I'd like to delete it. I was having a fake egotistical high over being 'right all along' about /777 and by the way thought that admission of his was desperately funny. I didn't single out Pollux becasue I hated him and thought he as gay, I just did it because I thought he was someone I could joke around with. Yet we see again, with congratulations, jokes go too far.

7. I didn't think Scilosopher was attracted to Celine Dion...why did I say that? The days I posted all of the posts in question I was unusually strange, unusually egotistical and almost certainly insecure. So while I odn't excuse myself from any blame, I will say it's totally out of character for me to be mean like that, and I only act like that when I'm out of character.

;) Wait- this is not a joke- I AM NOT FEMALE! I just read your last post (pollux) and saw how it referred to me as she??????? Do you all think I'm female? I put up the Celine Dion pic as a joke- #uno it wasn't me, #dos it doesn't look like me, #tres I don't have breasts of thin legs or soft pale skin or big lips and NO! No I don't want them.

This is really surprising. I thought Banshee was a guy from June 2001 to just three days ago, so (yes, I know, I'm a hypocrite!) but I thought I made my masculinity clear to all of you. Well, there's no muscle car thread so I can't go there...(ahem, ahem, ahem, cough:eek:) What's next, am I a male lesbian?

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! :D I knew you were a man, no woman can be that bitchy!!! LOL, well I guess they can, but it´s unusual , most of us know better....:p
Now we really want to see that special angle photo! :D

wow...that seriously changes things.

The joke wasn't taken badly it was just MEAN. I was laughing all the way though...

I could've sworn I saw you mention you were a girl, and that celine dion thing really soldified that idea.

Hopefully when I post my pics tommorow SOMEONE of the opposite sex and around the same age will be impressed.

PLUS!! Look at his title: Faerie!! Faerie!!


Congrats are you messing with us? This is too confusing...

I thought banshee was a man too (sorry - by default I tend to assume most people here are men, especially the forums I tend to go to seem pretty male dominated). Also, posts here are about the type of stuff where gender is fairly unclear, so it isn't too surprising some of us get confused sometiemes. It's exactly the type of Shenanigans Corngratulations employed - posting a different gender picture - that makes things really confusing (I had always thought congratulations was female - I don't know any guys that would make their name congratulations). I still can't figure out what the hamster is ...

I was also just covering up - I was attracted to Celine Dion (until I knew who it was of course). That's how far off in the weeds I am ... despite the preponderance of men I really come here to pick up women and am broken hearted that Bebelina never responds to my comments directed at her ... I think I'm going to go wander off into central park and frolic in the weeds by the sheep's meadow. To bad it's so safe there now this isn't a fatalistic act. Why cruel world have you deprived me of a way to end my pain!!!

It will be nice if people start posting pics again. If Bebelina keeps posting new ones I bet she can outnumber us all ... In an effort to stop that I realized there was a non mug shot pic of me on my old lab's website. I'm still curious how you post a pic in the actual post ...

That's a much better picture, scilo.

And while reading through this entire thread I came to one of Stryder's posts, asking basically if anyone from my school had heard me talk about sciforums.

Well here's the list:

Mr. sixty-two (from astronomy, I believe)
Linziloca (posted once)
My pal david who's name I can't quite remember but who's avatar had a dragon on it
aaand scifred-mr. sixty two, david's, and my creation, we thought it'd be kinda funny to make an antagonist for no reason on the forums. I think once this redneck-y fella we talked to about the website did the post about the *assholes.* I'm not exactly sure, though.

If anyone want's to use scifred's account as a moronical antagonist (only-and if I see any specifically mean posts (rather than just one, giant sweeping one) I'll delete them) his password is oedipus.

Porfiry where is your picture? And goofyfish? And AVATAR??

As I've said before mine'll be up here tommorra

I haven't photographed in years! would ya beleive that:), but for sciforums I will. During the next week I will photograp myself and scan it in my friends house.

OK here's two old pictures of me. I have no clue where my mommy puts recent pictures, but I could find some from 7th grade. I'm not wearing yarn in these pictures; they were from back when I was a good boy.

SO to any of you[Pollux] who are uncertain of my gender identity, here you are. Uncensored pics from Congratulations. A Male. Chromosones 'XY'. Has short hair on head, slightly shorter hair everywhere else. I don't wear fur coats, I don't want to, I have faerie in my title because I am:

GAY, YES I'M A HOMOSEXUAL. SO NOW WE ALL SCREAM 'HYPOCRITE' EVEN LOUDER.

Here are two pictures:

The angle on this one isn't that good. LOL.

I look young in these because I am, slightly younger, yet the only thinsg different now is that I am more muscular and have more manly facial features...(cheekbones, occasional gotee, etc.) But really, I haven't had any pubescant outbursts since then, and I look the same.

christ...this reeally is quite the soap opera we have here...


...I think I'm going to go laugh hysterically for a few hours.

I'm going to explain why I thought Congrats was a She.

One of the first posts mentioned "14 year old girl" and "Lesbian".

I thought it a bit odd, and my brain has a habit of remembering things that just Aren't right.

When Celine Dion's picture arose, I laughed.... My sister mentioned she was Gay years ago. lol

I'm going to join Pollux now.... And see if I can Laugh loud enough to plop out a lung,

(still laughing)

;) Keep laughing, Pollux, but watch your back. Know that I'm laughing at you harder.;) Ah, Sciforums, what would I do without it? This is all so much fun. No one knows who congartulations is- is he a monkey, is he is a lesbian? Is he a woman, is he an infant? Is he is Celine Dion? Is he a lego brick? Is he a little rock on the ground by a schollteacher's house in Germany? I don't reallyknow, do you? I bet not.

...and still no picture from Porfiry...

does this mean (chuckles) that you're (snorfles) still messing (wipes tear from eye) with us?

Plus what's more you're gay and you're a republican , come on the people you vote for (or will vote for) discriminate against you!

;) Hmm..golly gee, I caused a ruckus. I am a little rock on the ground next to a schoolteacher's house in Germany, if you were wondering. Well, that clears up this mess.

To Stryder:
Celine Dion is not, never was, and never will be a Lesbian! Don't you go spreading rumours about her! You go sell 145 million records and see how you'd feel if some guy called you a Lesbian! You'd feel like dirt! Now clean your mouth and repent!
whew...I needed to get that out. About the 'Conservative Connection', if you go into that icky 'Conservatives' thread, you'll find me explain how being gay relates to being a Conservative. You missed it, poor you, boo hoo.

I am not a lesbo, I never mentioned being a lesbo. I never even used the word.

Congratulations,
I would think someone who had sold 145 million records would not be so insecure. Especialy since there isn't anything wrong with being a lesbian. People mistaking your sexuality shouldn't make you feel like dirt.

are you sure you're not a straight guy in love with celine??

I got this one crazy question I cannot find answer for about a year. If a man does a plastic surgery and becomes a woman, makes love to woman is he a lesbial???? or better - If a gay becomes a woman and makes love to them, is he now considered hetero sexual???????:D:D:D really stupid question, but I find these aspects really wierd:)
Cheers!

Congrat's

I'm not repenting when you posted this:
http://www.sciforums.com/f12/s/showthread.php?s=&postid=62652#post62652

As for that whole Lesbian bit, I tell you that it was archived originally, And I have witnesses that saw the post too. It's noted because I mentioned to them "Look this person is claiming to be 14 and a lesbian with a Liberal attitude. Either they are going to get themselves in trouble or they are trying to catch someone causing trouble."

Of course that post seems to be no where within the Database.

Just a question for you, a Hetrosexual to a ... Well what ever you wanna be called....

Why on earth do you think that all us people out here in the world that buzzes around your head, Actually want to know about your sexual preferences????

I don't ask peoples sexual preferences, and I prefer not to be told. I'm sure there are many other people like that too. I know you'll probably bring up the whole "We have rights!", well I bring up.. "When you say that and wipe our rights out, why should we give you yours?"

Where does it say that he's a lesbian?

Oh Stryder

I was trying to rememebr any 'lesbian' comment on my part- the only one I could remember was in a thread called 'Vespertine' in the Art/Culture Forum. Bebelina mentioned how she had had 'lesbain dreams' about Bjork. Well, maybe she didn't actually say 'Lesbian', but I kind of inferred it.

But moving on, I had said casually that I was gay about 15 times already here at Sciforums. When it comes to the point that you realize people are already laughing at you because they thought you were female, and no one really picked up on your sexuality previously, you just want to drop the bomb in a totally untasteful way to be funny, that's all.

How you get that I have, or ever have had, a liberal attitude is strange. I thought I was pretty unabashedly Conservative around here, although no one will believe me. I don't want your rights- I don't want gay marriage, the whole bit. I understand the concept that by asking for these special privelages we feel are solving things by counter-acting past injustices, we are in fact hurting our won self-motivation. That goes for all of minority groups.

I would like to ask that you never brought up that you were heterosexual, (ahem?)
Just a question for you, a Hetrosexual to a ... Well what ever you wanna be called....
You obviously have no problem stating your sexual preference. And if you know what heterosexual means, you should at least be able to infer the proper term for 'gay'. It's homosexual. I'm not a tranasvestite, trans-gender, queer, or anything like that. I don't think homosexuality comes with any other charaterstic than sexual attraction. It hasn't been discovered, but I wouldn't be so quick to argue with the idea that homosexuality is genetic.

How hard would it be for you to be attracted to a man? What type of trauma would it take for a drastic change to occur in your sexuality. Basically, none. You're heterosexual and that's it. It's just as hard for me to imagine being attracted to a woman.

Oh, Childhood, you say. You were a mama's boy. You had too many stuffed animals. You didn't have enough quality time with your father. Well, I'm sorry, but I was never a mama's boy, I loved doing 'dad stuff' with my dad- we built a fort together, went to the hardware store together, stuff llike that. When I was little I always followed my mom around, of course. But no more than any other kid. Probably less.

What I mean to say is that find nothing wrong with anyone being straight. Or gay. I do have problems with transvestites, who I view as subjecting to their own wekanesses that they are not worthy to be their own sex. They don't have any more exclusivity for wanting to wear women's clothes as I do for wanting to wear khakis, and don't deserve any. It's conscious, not instinctual.

Please, though, think about this. You'll say that you don't want to know about anyone's sexuality. It surely makes you seem more neutral. Fact is, when you hear someone say they're gay, you don't like it. By saying that if you never heard it, you would never have reacted, and therefore the blame for controversy is handed down entirely to the sayer you are creating more problems than you are solving.

You have the right to react any way you want. I don't care if anyone simply does not like gay people. It's their right. I have every right to say what you have every right to get angry about. We shouldn't be debating on intentions when deciding whether or not something should be said. You have good intentions when wanting to stop a feud in a way that applies personal accountability to people. In theory, it's good for everyone. If it worked, I would supoport. But it doesn't. It just gets people angrier at you. Of course I wish I could change the viewpoint of people like you; it would make my life a whole lot easier. I can't, and I won't. You have every right to dislike me, and I respect all of your rights in all of their totality. I totally abdicate any bias in terms of how I perceive you.

I never decided to be gay. I discovered I liked guys the same time you discovered you liked girls. I never had any problems, so I rolled with it. I didn't pick up anything from it, no mannerisms I treasure as part of my 'self-identity'. I act gay to make people laugh; almost as if I'm making fun of mass perception.

I've said a lot more than the point I wanted to make-which was that by saying I'm not at fault for being gay, I don't have the right to say I have no part in the problem by saying it. That's just stupid. Of course, if no one knew people were gay, there would be no problems. I never made a thread about "Why Congratulations is proud of his Sexuality" because I'm not. Being attracted to men is not something I'm proud of, nor is it something I disdain. It's as natural to me as the routine pumping of blood from my heart. That's as far as it goes.

You're on the right track, Stryder, with your opinions. Sure, you dislike gay people, but that;'s not part of the equation in how to deal with a problem. It may be strange, but I agree with you more about homosexuality than I disagree. The stuff I agree about is just harder and deeper to explain in a reactionary way.

Well, don't forget I was laughing about the whole thing (and still am), I am a democratic liberal, which comes with the ability to only persecute people because of how stupid they are. In fact I really despise this one girl at school that acts exactly the same way I do but that's beside the point...

So don't think for a moment that I don't like you because you're gay. I don't like you because you're even more egotystical than I am and aren't nearly as funny. I get the feeling that you may be again inferring that I'm gay, but seriously I don't need to prove to someone out in the stinking wasteland of New Jersey that I'm not. So I won't.

But congrats did you ever pick up on anyone treating you like you were a girl? You know, acting a little softer on the edges, that sort of thing? From the first time we started arguing I was convinced, completely convinced you were a girl.

Technically I don't see how giving gay's as many rights as straight's wipes away straight's rights, nor do I see what is wrong with gay marriages. But, like before, we have wandered from the original post, so all of us should probably just drop it.

Scilo, how utterly cruel and mean of me, it will never happen again. ;) But I often post something in one forum, then forget in which it was, and can therefore not reply directly. I seldom check all the forums when I´m here. :)
Are you saying that you don´t want to see any more pictures of moi? :(
But, but....:( :( :(

Congrats, I find it strange that you think Celine would be offended by being called a lesbian, why do you think that? :confused:

you know... doing it with him... er... her... er... itself? :D

Nice picture, ismu.

Maybe it'd be funny, once I got my pic on the site today or tommorow, if you took all of our heads and put them on top of various characters from the Rocky Horror Picture show?

No problem ;)

Coming out on forums en masse?

:)

Congrats,
BTW the correct term is homosexual, but there are several others I quite like. Strangely, bender is one of my faves!

I don't give a shit what cograts describes himself as. I just think he's cute :D

Bebelina,
Even though you are in Sweden (my grandma was swedish) now knowing what you look like it's hard to resist virtual flirting. I was slightly chagrined when you didn't reply (especially since you spread so much general love). I guess I have to work on my technique. Or maybe start coloring my font to make it stand out. Then again I'm generally not too flash. No need to apologize - just say yeah redheads or I want your body or something.

Feel free to post as many pictures as you want. Even if I didn't enjoy them myself, others might harangue me to no end if I played some role in stopping you from posting more pics. I think either you or Ismu wins for creativity so far. Very cool.

Ismu,
Awesome pic, I didn't expect you to actually do that! You know after a couple recent experiences I think maybe I should stop drinking too. It's just that my school has an hour of free beer twice a week and it's hard to avoid getting a little more drunk than intended under the circumstances. Then again I'm always ok when I have to pay for my own beers and Moe certainly isn't giving them away free (I don't know if that makes me stingy for not being an alcoholic already or just stupid for drinking too much just cause it's free).

Congrats

I only brought Up that I was Hetrosexual because you brought up you were gay, If you won't allow me that right I'll start a STRAIGHT MARCH!!!! MARCH 1ST is the First Annual
Straight march!!!!!


We'll write letters to our political representatives, demanding that our Straight ruling must be heard because our rights to free-speech depend on it.

Where ever you are on that day, If your Hetrosexual.. Let everyone know!!!!!! (you might even get a date out of it lol)

:D

Thought I'd bite the bullet too
Forgive the terrible lighting I'm actually ten times more fabulous than this. Well maybe not but I have a big dick so who the hell cares.

Peace unto you

bbcboy,
What exactly is that odd contraption hanging on the wall to the left of your head??


(I assume it isn't one of those things that one can use to overcome genetics and get an artificial confidence boost ; )

OK, so here's my drivers license image. Scoff all you want, but my hair is normally much more moppish and these days I tend to have a beard of some sort (and a more disgruntled expression).
So it goes.

It looks like a floating trash can...


I just saw porfiry's pic-I thought drivers licenses were supposed to look bad!

NICE

(don't take me wrong here:D)

Nice to meet you Porfiry!

Nice to meet other members of sciforums also.

So come on chickens, there a lot more of you who are looking and not puttin' up!

Sorry to disappoint all you gizmo heads but it's just a part of the surround sound speaker system.

:cool:

Have you noticed that we all seem to be slightly apologetic about our images. I say balls to it. let's celebrate who and what we are and have. Porfiry this applies to you also (For shame) We all get laid for christ's sake (Well don't you?) so we can't be so bad.

:D

I have a great capacity for interaction with my fellow wo/man and a slight gut. I have a flair for poetry and the arts and crooked teeth. i have yin I have yang and so do you guys so shut the donald up and love yourselves for goods sake

:)

Polllux- that whole 'admission parade' post was not directed to you, it was directed at Stryder. I never had the thought in my head that you didn't like me, gay or not. Nor did I ever think you were gay. Nore do I think New Jersey is a wasteland.

But I really don't want to talk about this crap anymore! It isn't exactly relevant anymore. It's getting just a little depressing. So enough about sex, hermaphrodites, and straights' rights on Sciforums. This thread is good for getting to know each other on Sciforums, not for examining and cross-examining something someone said. I'm just getting sick of talking about myself.

We all get laid for christ's sake (Well don't you?)

err..

*chews on fingernail for a while*



Anyways, Congrats is right. This is a thread for pictures. Any non-whimsical analysis should be done elsewhere (in Free Thoughts).

Sorry Porfiry lol

Admittedly I was letting my sense of humour get the better of me.
(That means Congrats, that what i said wasn't meant spikefully. I was just having a little giggle, but if I have dented your delicate psyche Sorry no harm meant!)

Now where on earth did I Hide... oops... Put my picture???

Hey Stry, I got an idea. I think you can post your photo, and still remain hidden.
Here... before you scan your photo, smear your eyes (in the photo) using black boardmarker. You can also cover your chest using a paper with words "Wanted, live or rotten" written on it, including the case serial number. :D :D :D

I am at the moment battling hordes of festering pimples scattered across the corner of my upper lip, so I hope you folks out there don't mind some doctoring. The black and white-ness is for nostalgia:D

Enjoy

Aawww, you are so cute, Pollux. :D

ah, well, I try:D

I agree pollux is a cutey. And don't you think he looks like the young boy from the early U2 album cover (?War)

Might not have been the same in the states. I got an album by Cher called heart of stone with the drawing of her against a heart of stone. She recalled it I think and now it may be worth a few pennies. Anyone know?

Jesus Pollux- you do look like an 'Ian'. All Ians look like that- it's strange. Just like all Elliots have large round moon-faces and too much facial hair. Well, it seems like that. At least all of the Elliots I've seen.

Bbc, yes I guess he does...:)

Well I have had a photographic past....

Ah just kidding. The camera doesn't like me unless all the pimples can be doctored off of it. But I will admit that everyone I've met has said 'yes, my good fellow, you do look like quite the Ian.'

Pollux reminds me of what Boba Fett looks like in AOTC... the exact same hair.

(Yes, that's payback for the Spock comment. :p )

I don't have a scanner, nor do I have a recent picture of myself. But I have to say you are making me feel really OLD!

Good on ya for posting your photos, and as yet, none of them have made me turn away in horror.

Keep them coming.

Cheers
Teri

:)

lol Hoth, we should compare everyone who posts pictures here to various scifi characters. And I'm not nearly as short as that boba fett kid, yeah, that's right, I know who you're talking about.:D

I think that bbcboy looks like the guy that should've won survivor, I can't quite remember his name but anyone who watches the show will know instantly who I'm talking about. Bebelina reminds me a little bit of Galadriel from The Fellowship of The Ring, that's all I can really come up with for now.


Cheerio!

Now you don't have to hunt to find who has been bold.
I have collected all of the pics so far and moved them to my original post.
Holler if I missed you.

Peace.

(I know, I know, I'm a yutz for having not participated in my own pet project.)

Thanks Pollux, we actually laughed at the "striking" resemblance when she turned evil for a few moments. :D

Very nicely done, goofyfish. Comments are ok but the pic's should be viewable without having to hunt through the chaff to find them.

BTW, where's yours???????

Awright, awright...
The only pic that's online. Me and my second best girl.

Peace.

I have some trouble in getting one, but I have arranged a digital camera for the next week.
Bye!

I wondered, goofyfish, is that your human in the picture?
:D

You look like a nice couple, Goofy. :p

Goofyfish,

If you drop a bone will your human fetch?

I still see a lot of viewers and no picture posters. Could it be that every one is just chicken and afraid to let others know how they look? What's with that? You see people everyday...

Yes, chickens is what they are, and cowards! :D
I give you my evil eye...;) In spite of Scilos request.

Bebelina,
Feel free to post as many pics as you like. I was simply suggesting others try and keep up.

This and that other pic of you under art and culture are really wacky. If I had better access to a digital camera I would post pics as often as possible, but for now my avatar will have to suffice:D

I just discovered this thread (okay I apologize....) and i think it's a wonderful idea. Here are the two most recent pics of me (taken with a webcam).

(the last one is called watch beacuse you can see my watch.
here is number two.

Nice. :) What do you work with, I meam since you wear a suit, or is it just to get that classy look? :cool:

Hi :)
It's just that I have grown to love "that classy look". And it feels good to me to wear a tie.
But sometimes I look like a skater or whatever.

Talking about work: does anybody have a nice job for me? :-\

Check my profile lol.

Lol, thanks for the laugh Pollux. Yes, someone has got to do the dirty work, be proud that YOU had the courage to take it on. :D

Merlijn, well instead of sitting at home looking handsome you could go out and look for a job. ;)
What talents do you have then?

thanks Bebelina ;), but you don't really think I am just sitting here being pretty, do you?!
About the job situattion: I have a small problem. I am talented, BUT I am mainly interested in theoretical/philosophical issues. And these are things not considered to be important enough for funding. Because I have to pay my bills I work in a store (men's fashion) selling ties and suits. But that is not something I dreamt about diong, as you may imagine.
About my talents: can't you tell by now ;). I am intelligent, handsome, creative.... something like you Bebelina. :) :D

Goofyfish!
Excellent list on that edited start of thread. Makes it so much easier to tell the bold from the blod :)

Let your hair grow longer and you are the Merlijn from Camelot in the Arthur tales... :)

Wet1,

What’s the matter, no testicles? Or is it true what they are saying, that you and Mr. G are one and the same?
Check out some testicles actually allowed to touch female flesh. BTW, how's your inflatable sheep? Washed it lately?

Mr G.

What can I say. It's as I pictured you, based on your previous posts.

Does that mean I'll have to post my pic? :D

Q, yes you must!
Mr. G, you look much nicer than expected, if I may say so. :)
Banshee, I agree.
Merlijn, don´t flatter yourself too much...:D

Bebelina

[i]Q, yes you must![i]

Are you sure you want to fall hopelessly in love. That will most certainly happen once you've seen the Q. :eek:

I´m willing to take the risk! :D

Banshee, Bebelina.
thanks I guess.
I am a mage. However, Iam not the Merlijn; I am Artur returned. ("Arthur, the once and future king" should now be "Artur, the once and returned king"). I am not ready yet, though to take up Excalibur again.

Bebelina: Ok. I admit i am not as adorable as you are. (hey would you like to hire me as cloths & footwear designer? :))

Q: don't worry. She did not fall in love with me (as far as I know) and ... well ... have you seen ME??!! ;)
Merlijn
(My hair is still growing)

Check out some testicles actually allowed to touch female flesh. BTW, how's your inflatable sheep? Washed it lately?

I could care less if you call your inflatable sheep female. I think if you have to wash it that speaks volumes for you all by itself. At least you learned to use water....

That you chose to respond in such a manner says for itself exactly what it took to show a bit of balls.

Bebelina emoted:

Mr. G, you look much nicer than expected, if I may say so.

And I dare say that, together, we can articulately make [Q] insanely jealous. ;)

Your place, or mine?

Wet1 bleated,

I could care less if you call your inflatable sheep female. I think if you have to wash it that speaks volumes for you all by itself. At least you learned to use water....
Not a truly orignal insult, is it? Have you another by which I might actually feel intellectually wounded?

Please, oh please. Hurt me. :rolleyes:

Clue 1: Try not to imitate me. :D

You are all very gorgeous, but I have to wait for everybodys photos, to be able to pick a favourite. ....;) :eek: :D

Peace.

Why don't we all post pictures of our surroundings, outside but not necessarily inside our houses. There seems to be a lack of new pics so I now propose this idea.

Merlijn....

Can I just say..

OOOH! :cool:

Hey, age doesn´t matter!
What I meant by my comment to Mr. G was that I had pictured him to be more monstrous and hideous than he apparantely was. That is...if that wasn´t just his recent purchase from K-mart when they had their big human -costume sale! Like an "Edgar-suit" ( M.I.B ). I still have my suspicions that he may have tentacles, large sharp teeth and insectoid eyes. :D

My internal vision of Q though, is even worse...:eek: :(
So show yourself, monster!!! :D

Here´s one of my cats. Lo is her name, but also knows as Losan, Kaka-Lo, Koko- Lo, Loli- Koko. :p

Bebelina,
you're great! your cat is great!
I cannot figure out who is the greater :D

Love
Merlijn

Bebelina,
Growing up I had a brother/sister pair of cats with black hair and the same priest spot of white (no little bit of white on the mouth though). Unfortunately Reginald Pithers passed away last year and Cleopatra has retired to Florida with my parents. Your picture just reminded me how much I miss them.

Looks like a great cat (Reggie was 25 lbs and not quite so similar to Lo as Cleo aka blinkers, clee-bee, beebers ...). How many do you have?

Pollux,
That sounds like a different thread to me. Besides I don't live in a house so the outside is a little misleading and the inside is almost downright depressing (picture subsidized student housing in NYC that's only $300/mo).

Scilo, I have four. Lo has a twin brother named Puh , aslo black but with a very small white spot, hardly noticable. The others are E.T and Nemesis. And my middle name is Cleo. :)

Merlijn, Lo is trying to take the computer from me now, you should never had said that....and I should never have posted her picture. Oh, too late... she is ususally out flirting on the net at www.rats.com trying to get a snack, but now she wants to be here....:rolleyes:

Did this become a cat thread? :) Here's my cat India:

Bebelina,
Interesting that we both had sibling black cats. We only made it up to 3 and the third was a bit of a wonderful but patience trying accident. She was one of those needy strays that you had to love ... and sometimes hate as she would tirelessly keep jumping into your lap until you petted her and never exactly learned good manners if you know what I mean. She didn't even have an agreed upon name - baby, scraps, jallopy, and even sh*ty-kitty (a mean one joke that was used when she demonstrated her lack of training). I miss her too, but she died 5 years ago and we didn't have her for 14+ years like reg (and she also didn't die in the back of the car as I was sped to the vet like reg. It was the most traumatic experience of my life - his last minutes were far from peaceful).

Cleo's a great name, my first and middle names are both straight out of the bible and entirely too common. Maybe I should pick up a general psuedonym like Bebelina ...

Hoth,
You have a black cat too? Wow, if I didn't know better I would be surprised so many people have black despite the myths - and myths they are - my cats were nothing but good luck.

Sorry about the off topic rambling, I just miss my kitties and lo looks a lot like cleo (I just wish I thought a cat might be happy stuck in my little apartment) ...

Okay, here is I :D Wait, Im the one on the right.

Everyone looks alot different than I imagined. Bebelina, your alot much prettier than I had thought.

Well cheers


Groove on:cool:

Just so you will all leave me alone......
I'm working on finding a suitable picture (a.k.a. I'm not making odd faces at the camera) So lay off for awhile or you will never get to see me
*Smoochies*
~Aphrodite~

Here's my pet, Joe. His shell is now about 10cm (4inches). Quite hard. Bebe's and Hot's cats can't eat him. :D

(gasps)

Double Gasps with chopped nuts, cherries and syrup. But no surprises.:D

...pushes back cowlick in instinctive motion preprogramed to be done in the presence of *multiple* beautiful women.

Pollux and BBC,

Is this (gasps) a bad thing?

The incredible edible me (according to BBC):D

*stRgrL* , hmmm...did you think I was going to be ugly? :bugeye:
Well, anyway, you look very nice and maybe you can now take a bussload of stalkers off my hands. :D

Hoth, nice cat.
Ismu, nice turtle!

Scilo, yes it´s horrible when they die. My favourite cat was bitten to death by a dog in 1999. He was yellow and named Yoda and as fluffy as they get. :)

(laughs uncontrollably, then eventually gains hold of himself) no, no its not a bad thing, if I were roundabout twelve years older I'd be interested in a woman who is interested in science and who is also *ahem* purty.

There you go again with that " Am I nice" thing.

I suggest most of the red blooded hetties are typing with one hand as we speak :)

Pollux,
Oooh, I get it:D

Bebe,
Well... I didnt think you were ugly, I just didnt think you'd be so gorgeous:D

"Red blooded hetties..."???
Thanks, st...gosh your name is hard to type, can I call you ST? Or any other suggestions? Now how about those stalkers? How many can you handle? :D

Just kidding...:p

strgrl,
If it was a bad thing I think they're both nice enough to keep their mouths shut (which makes me concerned that I only got comments about being brave when I posted my first pic which could even be a bad sign [and only pollux noted an improvement on the second]).

Okay, since I started to type what I was going to say became irrelevant other than - despite possible selection for those who either consider themselves attractive or are brave, people are a surprisingly attractive for a bunch of people addicted to the internet. Unless they are all photoshop wizards.

Bebelina,
Sorry to hear about Yoda, that's sounds like a tough way to lose one as well (and I'm guessing it didn't live to the ripe old age Yoda did).

EDIT: I realized I didn't really remember what people had said. Not too much. I got one redhead criticism and one mental mind trick comment ... maybe I'm the one who thought it required bravery and not simply an available photo.

I was confused by the whole hetties thing too, I think it's for heterosexual. I guess some think we're turning sciforums into match.com

Scilo, don´t say that..."addicted to the internet"....gives me the shivers.... :eek:

Sorry Bebelina, I think it's the plug jack in my arm that I use instead of a keyboard that makes me feel like I'm shooting up when I go on ... but that's just me I guess. ;)

Beb' and Sci

It does refer to heterosexuals. Well what else. ?

Meant as a complimaent to *stRgrL* I need more practise I think.

We boys don't rely too heavily on them. It's more a case of get your coat you've pulled. (That's if we speak at all :eek: )

"And ne'er the twain shall meet!"

So it seems.

Respect my friends

Speaking of cats Chagur told me in another thread that a friend of his left out a mercury compound of some sort, and this cat from another house approached it and, well...exploded:(

But here's the tally of animals that I am accompanied by (which I'll post pics of sooner or later, as well as my surroundings, since that was my own suggestion):

2 cats-Jungle and Pepper (Pepper is my sister's cat so naturally Jungle is the better one:D )

2 dogs-jessie and simon. Simon lost the last brain cell he was priveleged to hold onto today when he inhaled a puff of nail polish from my sis. He then proceeded to sniff the window and bark at a pair of leaves that fluttered by.

2 birds-mine own! Lutino Fischers Lovebirds, named Gandalf and Galadriel. We're like distant cousins, they don't really approach me too often but we usually find ourselves singing the tune that accompanies an attractive woman that passes by.

1 iguana-bix, who is my sister's. Bix doesn't really do too much. I think she wipped gwen (or guinan as I like to call her) once. She's not full size yet.

So many animals, must be like a zoo at your home. :D Sounds great. I laughed when I read about the dog. Reminds me of a dog I had as a kid, Dino, who one day stood outside barking at a pair of boots, that obviously looked very suspicious. Maybe they smelled funny, or maybe his eyesight was failing...:)

I have this captain kirk cardboard standup thingy which scares the shit out of anyone if they don't know that it's in a room (seriously, you don't know how scary those cardboard things are until you have one). Anyway we brought him inside and Simon went berserk, barking at the top of his lungs, howling, everything, we moved him around n stuff like he was real and it made him pee all over the floor. That was really, really funny.

Yes, it is like a zoo here. None of us can go anywhere without someone in our way:D

I had a cat named Pepper, but she died (disappeared) about 4 years ago. :( Besides India we also have another cat, Daisy (about 13 years old), but I don't know if she counts as a pet since she's so afraid of people (and all other things that move) that she doesn't come by except to eat.

Here's India as a kitten with our golden retriever, uncreatively named Goldie:

Oh, they were so cute! And that pool was also nice...:p

I haven't managed to get time to read this whole thread yet but im game so here's ME. Hope i am what everyone thought i was.
http://www.sciforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=252&stc=1

It was a photo a friend took and he named it (i didn't even think about the name when i posted it)

Your a big ole pimp daddy, aren't ya??:D No, Im joking... nice pic:)

So you don't actually look like your avatar? :bugeye: You look more human than I thought.

Yeah that avatar is disgusting! I almost hurled the first time I saw it. Almost. But not quite.

I don't know tho' put those shades on the avatar and...

Kidding cute stuff. :D

How about one without the shades so we can see those baby blues, greens, browns, purples.....

A very pleasant surprise!!
Respec'

Hey leave my avatar alone. Thor is cool in SG1 (even if he did plagerise something i already had). :D

As to the shades that was muckup day and i went a NEO off the Matrix so hense the sunglasses. I will endevor to find a photo without sunglasses but that one was the only one i already had on my computer

In the words of the great god CARTMAN


'SWEET'

Finally I a cat is living together with me. :)

He is called Salis. (not Azreal, I only said that to scare the smurfs.)

http://home.wanadoo.nl/rmboers/images/salis2.jpg
Salis

Great prture of you

oh that your cat

just kidding:D

I wouldn't know where to begin. And here I was today lamenting about the need to establish my identity due to certain confusions that, while amusing ... anyway .... The scary thing was that I hadn't seen this thread yet; and, for whatever reasons, it is entirely possible--when you see JamesR's little survey you'll understand--for me to have missed it; just don't ask me how.

At any rate, in the time of this thread's existence, my gender has been called to question no less than four (4) times. Cris and others have laughed with me through this many times before, but for once it wasn't based on the phoenetics of the name Tiassa (tee•AH•suh); rather, as Adam pointed out, it's apparently something about my presentation.

In that spirit, I will post a picture of my cat. :p

Actually, I've seen a few cat pictures in here, so there's that. And to keep this post from getting huge let me just say that it's ironic; I have seven or eight images of myself taken within the last two weeks that are the first voluntary, calculated photographs of me in several years; possibly ten.

In the meantime, even with so few images to choose from, I'm having a sudden, prissy debate about which one to put up. :p

So here's my cat.

thanx,
Tiassa :cool:

Liban is a beauty!

Well, here was the problem. There's seven b/w pictures, of which I'm only truly a fan of one or two. And then there's the last of the color-test shots that exist, and that's a poseur shot.

Flip a coin (three-sided?) and the fates tell me there is only one pictue to possibly offer. After all, I am the Tiassa, right? :D

thanx,
Tiassa :cool:

Thank ye ... yessir, that's my baby ... :D

thanx,
Tiassa :cool:

ahhhh... Tiassa; officially outted!

Peace.

I always wondered...... :D

Goofy???!!!???? - Am I not cool enough to be on opening post??? Im the only one you didnt put up there. Im so upset, Im going home to cry now:o <---- Thats as close to crying as I could find:D

Bye all (sniffle, sniffle)



(You know Im just messin with you, right Goofy?):)

Merlijn, what a cute cat. Resembles mine a lot. :) What happened to your adorable avatar? :bugeye:

Tiassa, you also had a beautiful cat, and with blue eyes, very rare. :)
Well, now we have proof that you are indeed a pot smoking male. :D
But you look very much like a woman I know, only that she´s blond, but the face is almost identical...spooky. :cool:

I have fixed it and I abase myself before you. :D

Peace.

Man. How very lame of me. I am a bad person.

Well since your big enough to admit it.... Ill forgive ya:D

Thanks.

Bebelina, I know... I was just trying out some new avatars last thursday, and non are really as nice the lil' blue Merlin.
I just hadnot taken the trouble to put the old one back.

Tiassa, what are you smoking there... a rat?

Merlijn

Petrified basilisk fewments. Hardened to stone by the magick of the ages, polished to sparkle and shine by the ethereal flows of the Myskatonic. ;)

Bebelina

Oh, for heaven's sake ... I just can't escape it. :D

Ummm ... how about the poseur pic? This one is the only remaining from a hideous evening spent playing with the digital camera and light. I'm disappointed at the resolution of the card, which is the only reason I took that picture, to see how finely it could mark the card. But at least I can still tell what it is. The red is not an effect; in fact, it's why the other is black and white. The red light obsessed me for days and I finally figured out why: it makes me look better when I put them to black and white to mask the bad colors I managed to land on my face.

But, yeah ... at three in the morning on way too much red wine ... look at me, Mom, I'm a poseur! (So, yes, you can laugh at it.) ;)

It was bad enough when I wrote like a woman :bugeye:

Now I look like one? Spooky-spooky, indeed. :p

thanx much,
Tiassa :cool:

(PS--when I tell Liban what you two said she just glowed and looked all regal. :D You've made a happy kitty ....)

thanx,
Tiassa :cool:

I guess there is still hope for your manliness then....*cough*..poser..*cough*...you didn´t look like her in that picture, at least I have never seen her like that, but she´s a prudent person, and would never hold a tarot card in red lighting anyway..:D
Please indulge me, exactly what is petrified basilisk fewments? :bugeye:

perhaps you need a large, knotted, and wholly unsightly beard to affirm your masculinity?

Ok people...here I am...
But no laughing! Or I set my goat on you!!!!

temporary_illusion,
Who are we supposed to not laugh at?

Hehe
Me, the person in the middle...oh, and the guy on the right

But laugh at the guy on the left all you want :)
And if you see him on the street, throw random objects at his head

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D
sorry:D
couldn't help myself
ok ok sorry

Grr! Be nice or I'll bite your shins!!!

Lol

sorry, with all this talk of please don't laugh at me stuff, I simply knew tht someone has to do this;)

anyway, I welcome you from my person @ sciforums and hope you'll have a lot of feircesome(sp) discussions!

cheers

*bites ur shins*


Sorry, couldn't resist!

(There ARE advantages to being under 5ft, u know :P)

I can't post my pic from here, but I can provide a link to another page where it sits now. http://www.wildstar.net/~bowzer/leon.html

I may stick it up here later, from home.

What about getting November to post one:D

Which server do you go on on IRC?

Adam is:

Born: 1973
Location: Monash University, Clayton, Victoria, Australia.
Current Occupation: Computer engineering sudent.
Work history: Royal Australian Navy, then barman, waiter, carpet layer, and other odd jobs.
Pets: 8 horses (including 2 new foals), 3 dogs, 2 cats, and zillions of wild birds who like to spend Spring at my family's farm.
Status: Currently obsessed with November.
Height: 6'1"
Weight: I want to drop ten pounds. :p
Hair: long brown, mostly straight.
Eyes: Blue, blue-grey.
Political Affiliation: The Adam for El Presidente! party.

At the moment I live in the attic in one of the Monash uni halls of residence. All alone up here, tiny room, but lots of peace and quiet.

I am not using IRC these days because I am stuck behind the university's horrendous firewall and proxy system. If I ever figure out how to get through it all with IRC, then I will resume my duties as an operator on the Undernet channel #casual.

Is that you on the right, adam?

Is that your beloved girlfriend beside you? I see... I thought she was your mom. :p :D ;)

My grandmother. At my graduation from navy basic training.

So the guy on your left is your grandmother?

I swear to god I'll never understand you aussies...

(edit: goofie you should say which side adam is on in his pic, like strgrl and temporary illusion. some people might get confused.)

I didn't realize the Australian Navy was in such dire need of people they allowed minors to join up. Or was that just when they were worried that Boatload of refugees might land there?

I was 18 in that picture. :p

I figured ... I was just kidding. When I shave my beard I still look like I could be <18.

Come on we all want to see a pic of November:D

* posted by scilosopher
[B]I figured ... I was just kidding. When I shave my beard I still look like I could be <18.

I'll be looks like <4 if I shave all of my hairs.... and wearing diaper.
:D

kidding too. I'm not that chubby :D

When I shave my head w/o shaving my beard I look like an ex-con (the picture on my license)

When I grow a big bushy beard and long hair I apparently look Omish (the picture on my undergrad id)

No beard and medium length hair I look like the canonical white bread shmuck (previous drivers license).

No beard long hair my face looks way too small - at least right after being Omish.

Too many people have goatees, so they're out.

Maybe I should try shaving my head and beard, it couldn't be any worse than the rest ... Besides women always go crazy over how cute baby's look. It couldn't hurt. (I know better than to shave the rest of my body hair - that episode of Seinfeld made me itch)

If I actually have the balls to try it, I'll post a pic. I was planning on shaving my beard and getting a short cut anyway once it gets a bit warmer ...

(since you can all view a pic or two with a beard and medium length hair I'll let you draw your own conclusions about what I look like ; )

An old picture of me when I was a young surf grommet. (+15 years ago).

Believe it or not I still look the same. (apart from longer hair)

Allcare

Bebelina

A basilisk is a mythical creature whose breath, as I recall, could turn you to stone (stone you? :D) .... Fewments? Droppings. Dragon droppings, as I recall from L'Engle, and probably a few mundane animals as well.

Porfiry

A beard ... ugh. Imagine Japanese coarse-hair texture and a Norwegian beard. The primary beard comes in reasonably if I keep it just a touch longer than Don Johnson, but these weird, pubic-looking hairs crawl down my cheekbones, like a single line of them on each side beneath my eyes. Xev, for instance, might find it Cthulhian if I grew just those hairs. I can't bring myself to put Neer on my face, and I'm obliged here to make the joke that I won't let Nads anywhere near my face. :D )

thanx,
Tiassa :cool:

All right, I've decided to post my little collection of pictures as well.

Since I tend to have a near-to-impossible time of <i>not</i> growing facial hair, these all have some form of facial hair in them. Admittedly, I look a little psycho in the bottom-left, pissed-off in the bottom-right, stoned in the upper-left, and usual in the upper-right.

Overall, I think I resemble a real goofball.

Oh yeah. I know. They're not what you were expecting, but neither was any of the other pictures so far posted. Great pics by the way.

Thanks!

Peace.

If it's of any help, goofyfish, you are not alone in not being able to view the picture of Pine_net.

I think my pic links work now.

Pine_net (Unusual name!)
At the risk of putting a few noses out of joint (yours included) I have to say you are probably THE cutest thing to hit the boards since me. ;)

Please accept this as an appreciation of a lot of hard work in the gym on your part. There's no need to fly over and come after me witha gun or anything.:D:D

Peace man,

What bona thews

A compliment is a compliment!

I'm flattered. Thank you bbcboy! :D

HEY! I saw him first! Hes mine:D

Oooh, yummy:D


Just kidding guys!


Groove out!

Dat's right! stRgrL saw me first! :D

Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off da floor. You sweet sweet thang!

:)

Well, I said before I have long hair. Not any more. Chopped it ALL off last night, very short now.

Come on we want to see November:D

OK why not -

And -

Come on we want to see November


You're out of luck. :p

And the kids more recently -

Or was that just when they were worried that Boatload of refugees might land there?

Oooh! Vicious! :D

Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off da floor.

Your jaw fell off? Must sting.

I asked November does she want me to do more or less weights and fitness stuff. She doesn't care either way, said "I want YOU". Damn nice. But I like to be fit and healthy, so I'll keep doing stuff.

Here's a question: Do people really mean it when they claim that physical appearence dosen't matter?

Now, I believe that, to a certain degree.....intelligence and attitude is way more important.

But I do not believe it when others say so. What causes trust? Is trust based on evidence, or is it a form of faith, or is it a bit of both?

Well i actually met tempary_illusion on ICQ and i knew i wanted her before i had met her or even seen her piture. So for me i would say YES brains and heart are much more important:D


Love you honey:D

Well, I saw one post in which you gave a rather unflattering description of your physical self Xev, but you've got one hell of a brain. I wouldn't be surprised if several sciforums users already have crushes on you, and that would be based solely on your personality, or what of it has been seen here. (I believe Nelson was mentioned? Don't worry, I'm only teasing.)

As for the importance of physical appearance, well, it is nice to look at something healthy. Seems to me that our ideas of what is beautiful or not are based on health conditions and breeding potential.

I'm not sure if appearance or personality as factors can completely negate the need for the other. No idea.

Now, I believe that, to a certain degree.....intelligence and attitude is way more important.


kkmmmmpphh...bwhhahahhwhahahahhHaHAHAHAHAA!!!
Yah, right. Not in any reality I've ever encountered. But then I'm a cynic of heroic proportions, so feel free to dismiss me.
