Anonus isn't a praying mantis, Central Avenue isn't Disney!Alice, and Longfellow isn't supermariokartawardwinning!Mario.

Super Lazuli · 2011-01-17 16:43:24

I am not Sakaki.

OR AM I?

Anonus · 2011-01-17 16:54:54

how do you know i'm not the LONE LOCUST OF THE APOCALYPSE

Saigyouji · 2011-01-17 16:55:42

Would you prefer that I WAS Lambdadelta?

Central Avenue · 2011-01-17 16:56:40

(If this were TVTropes, this would be where I'd post as CentralAlice)

Trash_Vortex · 2011-01-17 16:56:44

^^^^ You're not, I've seen a picture of you.

Super Lazuli · 2011-01-17 16:58:29

'tch.

Well fine, then.

WUT. I CAN'T CALL YOU DOVEY NOW. YOU BASTARD.

Also, I'd totally love to be a happy cow instead of a plain unremarkable person. A TALKING TYPING COW.

Hah! Jokes on you! I AM my avatar!

glennmagusharvey,
I think I might be able to understand your annoyance here. This problem is part of the reason why I try to view people as genderless bots.

I also try to choose avatars that I believe represent me well so I think I can kind of sidestep this issue a bit. I guess a side-effect of that is how I tend to identify with Tsukiyo Oba quite a bit now that I have used that character in my avatars a few times. Sorry, this is probably just pointless rambling.

Someone said they have trouble getting angry at me because of my Chi avatar.

So I kept it. Though I'm sincerely glad that I'm not a 1 year old female kitty. I'd like to OWN such a kitty, however.

I like to make vague character judgments based upon the avatars people choose. I cannot extrapolate a whole lot, but I can figure out a bit.

KarlzBPimparoni · 2011-01-18 00:51:15

It is my greatest failing that I am not a derpface Scout.

LouieW,
I think I might be able to explain this thread. This thread was not created with an intent of seriousness.

That said, serious answer is perfectly legal. And often interesting.

I do try to choose avatars that might reflect my personality or mood in some way. Sometimes this works out; other times not so much. Oh well.

Khwarizmi · 2011-01-18 10:22:49

All my avatars are entirely accurate representations of my views, character and outward appearance.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-01-18 12:22:35

I see that your true essence is the Mandelbrot fractal set.

Khwarizmi · 2011-01-18 12:35:28

Precisely.

[Deleted User] · 2011-01-19 10:57:43

Does that mean I am not actually Seto Kaiba?

DarkWolf312 · 2011-01-20 07:42:58

Damn. You mean I'm not really a red-eyed wolf and that I just imagined the paws?

WUE · 2011-01-20 09:30:45

Does that mean that if I put a photo of myself in my avatar I'm suddenly going to turn into another person?

Tnophelia · 2011-02-03 15:34:33

I am totally Yura of the Demon Hair.

Vorpy is Marisa/Luka Megurine, but I am still the insane crazy girl.

It bugs me that people keep calling me Vorpy on here, when we are totally different people.

nohaynicklibre · 2011-02-03 16:26:16

MAH BOI

Tnophelia · 2011-02-03 16:48:21

THIS WHAT ALL TRUE WAR EARS STRIVE WHORE

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-03 19:31:15

What is Vorpy's first avatar again? The one with the pink lipstick and hair.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-03 21:54:10

Vorpy's first avatar is Luka Megurine drawn in a Cel shading style rather than the cleany cliche animu style. Similar to the drawing style in Dead Leaves Commercial Bumps.
