Everytime I see Problem Child's avatar...

Who is that, PC? It looks like the guy from Six Feet Under, all shagged out.
 
That's the old dude from the opening of the Monty Python tv show, played with panache by Michael Palin.

I can quote practically every Monty Python skit, but I have never seen their show. I have all the audio tapes - I can do a great obnoxious falsetto British accent in my car. :D
 
I really miss his last av. It seemed to fit whatever hilariously funny smart-ass remark he made.

PC is the quickest wit on this BB.
 
Now now now, it wasn't the Spanish Inquistion, is was known as the Reformation. Inquisition is tre gauche and so connotative of bad things like the iron maiden and the rack. Reformation makes one think of kind and generous things, like the saving of good christian souls who happen to have strayed to the wayward path. Bad Copernicus. Bad, bad, bad.

What happened to Bill Murray? I am so behind.

"You mean you recruits complete training by yourselves?"

"That's the fact, jack!"

DCL, I still think you've got the absolute drop dead sexiest avatar. Clever as hell, too.
 
it reminds me of prepheso or whatever the old dude's name from the tempest was.
 
*** The Inquisition. . . what a show, the Inquisition. . . here we go. . . ***



I liked the old one.
 
My 2nd favorite Mel Brooks movie

Remember the scene in Rome?

"You're nuts! N - V - T - S NUTS!"
 
Occupation? "Standup Philosopher"...."oh a BULLSHIT ARTIST!. Did you Bullshit last week?"
 
:) yw!

Then Bea Arthur slams the window on his fingers and when he complains says "I'm on my WINE break...."

That's what I'm thinking. LOL

You know what? The whole no avatar thing is total insolence on my part, really. My whole life I've hated being classified. The moment a teacher or a girlfriend or an agent told me I was a certain "type" I immediately did a 180 on them. I hate pigeon-holing, because once you're catalogued as particular "type" you're handed a whole list of "can'ts". You can't do this and you can't do that.

I hate can'ts, so I hate being classified, which is probably why I don't have an avatar, and probably why I chose a User Name that has no meaning whatsoever. I prefer to be undefined by packaging so I'm in control of how I'm perceived.

Of course that's all paranoid as hell, but, hey, I don't troll or post drunk or snuggle or cut and paste articles all freakin day, so I've got to have at least one uptight Forum vice, right?

Only one? I thought we were all allotted at least three.

I haven't noticed that it's ever worked. Has it?
