My avatar is the Batman saying what would be on my mind should the boy wonder proudly dispay his new outfit to me.
I just liked this interchange.

Um, no. I'm a Chicago Bears fan.

No, it's something I literally "stumbled" across one night and decided I liked it enough to use. I've yet to find anything else that's equally as unique.

Kevin,
2+2 is a poker players website, and trout are what they call the fish that eat all the little fish (i.e. the bad players).
Good year to be a Bears fan, so far!
Todd

This guy, Jo?
His name is Gary Mitchell and he acquired groovy voice-booming powers in an episode of 'Star Trek'.

Donald what is Batman saying? My peepers aren't up to the job.
Yes, Dan that's the feller - eww creepy eyes now visible!
Wasn't he the one who went a bit bonkers in the nut, absolute power corrupting absolutely?

Yeah rabid sexism is OK as long as it's part of a (non - Western and therefore ethnic) tradition and culture....

If you like ;)
You may misunderstand me though - I am opposed to sexism in any culture, I do not defend the veil, I do defend a woman's right to dress as she pleases, from mini skirts to hijabs, without fear of hostility or physical assault.
