I agree, introduction threads aren't cool, but don't barge in like you know everyone already, it ain't cool.

A "Hey" or "Hey, hows it going?" in your first post will do fine (if it is a different forum for young people, then "Hey, sup" will do)

Nonono. You just go straight to making a point on a subject.

A simple "hey" does wonders. It is generally what you do when you talk to someone, but I am not familiar with forums, but in life it ain't cool to go barging in.

Words, and their proper usage are the tools of diplomacy and psychological weapons without peer, therefore their proper understanding is of great importance.

I was taught never to call another by an unkind name, for an apology does not erase the memory of a word, which once spoken, can never be recalled.

For that reason, humor is a tricky thing, as most often we make fun of others. The only 'safe' form of humor is to take a shot at yourself, and even then, those who may hold your opinion of value will request you not to be so belittling of self, for it erodes the comfort they may find in following your path.

Me-Ki-Gal, you are a rare one. At times your words may be a bit unpolished, but your sincerity is ever obvious. You are not afraid to speak to the ugly truths as well as the beautiful ones...I respect you for that.

Let's try pictograms....

A pictograph[1], also called pictogram(me), is an ideogram that conveys its meaning through its pictorial resemblance to a physical object. Earliest examples of pictographs include ancient or prehistoric drawings or paintings found on rock walls. Pictographs are also used in writing and graphic systems in which the characters are to considerable extent pictorial in appearance.

Pictography is a form of writing which uses representational, pictorial drawings. It is a basis of cuneiform and, to some extent, hieroglyphic writing, which uses drawings also as phonetic letters or determinative rhymes.

Modern use

Pictographs remain in common use today, serving as pictorial, representational signs, instructions, or statistical diagrams. Because of their graphical nature and fairly realistic style, they are widely used to indicate public toilets, or places such as airports and train stations.

A standard set of pictographs was defined in the international standard ISO 7001: Public Information Symbols. Another common set of pictographs are the laundry symbols used on clothing tags and chemical hazard labels.

Pictographic writing as a modernist poetic technique is credited to Ezra Pound, though French surrealists accurately credit the Pacific Northwest American Indians of Alaska who introduced writing, via totem poles, to North America.[5]

Contemporary artist Xu Bing created Book from the Ground, a universal language made up of pictogram collected from around the world

Thank you for defining what pictograms are. I'd have no idea otherwise nor any way to find out.

Remember how she staples bugs onto boards to show them to others, they could represent you if your not careful. :D
 
It's the second time you confused me for someone else today, cosmic.

I don't staple bugs onto boards, I take pictures of them and then let them go:

I was just kidding with you, that's all. I remember your images when you first came here but I thought they were "mounted" not just standing still, at least that's what I remembered anyway. Sorry to have mistaken those images .
