So far no Andy Milligan avatars.

Ahem...that'll be 3 karma please.   :teddyr:

I originally went with Vanilla (Cool as) Ice because I'm a dork, as you can probably guess. How many other guys on this board didn't start dating until they were 25? How many have shrines to Spider-Man and H. P. Lovecraft in their rooms? Yep. Thought so.

I went with Tom Hanks, though because (besides being a D&D nerd for many years) nothing is more pathetic, yet strangely touching, as a young Tom Hanks crying after he loses his mind to a role-playing game.
Goblins still exist. Your Grandpa Seth is telling you!

Are you nuts? You tryin' ta turn me into a homo?

You're TEARING ME APART, Lisa!

The One Electronic is mine, with a nice screen cap from an old surrealist film, Un chien andalou, for a face.

He is a character from a rather surreal, unusual online graphic novel called "Rice Boy" which all should see.

I usually change mine almost weekly, but lately I've been sticking with the "Cyboman" from the Lawn Mower Man...I mean, you just can't go wrong with a cybernetic VR-trained, drug-fueled psycho chimp right?

An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry, you can't repeat a karma action without waiting 6 hours. 


Well, you can't blame a guy for trying!  :teddyr:

Thanks!
If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

And you thought Trek isn't cool.

Mine is the poster for The Mutilator which Andrew just recently reviewed.

It's a film that I hold dear.  It's one of the worst, most terribly acted slasher flicks of all time.

Absolute gold.   :smile:

That describes about half of the members of this board; with the one exception being that you have had a date.

Thulsa Doom is one of my favorite cinema characters of all time.  I love the bit where he changes into a serpent!

Raffine, I like your current avatar, that image from Mad Love has always stuck with me. Got to see that film all the way through some day.

I like Derf's latest avatar too, Tinkie Winkie/Punisher. Wonder where he got it, or did he make it.

As for mine, It's Ignatz Mouse from the classic George Herriman comic strip Krazy Kat. I love the strip once I finally got to see it, and a collection I found at the library got me through a rough stretch a few years ago when I really needed some laughs. Plus the whole throwing bricks at Krazy who only seems to love him more for the attention seems to relate to real life way too much.

I need take another gander around the internet for images of him. I'd like to find one of him actually throwing a brick since that's what he's know for.
blah blah stuff blah blah obscure pop culture reference blah blah clever turn of phrase blah blah bad pun blah blah bad link blah blah zzzz.....

flackbait

Hey yaddo
if ya do a google image search for Ignatz you'll find a couple of pics of him in the throwing motion and one of him holding a brick
hope this helps
