	How do you picture the guys (and gals) at Poly? Suffering from ads?

Hmm.. i just realized i have, over the months, created mental images of all the various posters here at poly.

For example, as i mentioned in another thread, i always used to visualize Albert SPeer as a scrawny white kid with his hat backwards and tryin to act ghetto.

I see Ming as looking remarkablely like his avatar...

And i think that Chegitz looks like... well, Chegitz Gueverra, but smaller and pudgier for some reason.

Oerdin looks like King Aurther to me...

Is that loinburger's pic in his avatar? cause what i think he looks like.

I know what orange looks like...

I know what provost harrison looks like (like the guy form orange county)

Whenever i conjur an image of Dino Doc i think of his old avatar of the decrepit skull thingi.

And i think Dissident looks like his avatar too, only obviously converted from cartoon to real.


am i right? in the ball park?
what do yall think others look like?

I tend to think of people as their avatars. However, a recent visit to the pic thread has made me think of many posters as usual computer geeks

I really like that avatar; I got Big Crunch to help me crop the picture and size it correctly. Before that I had a series of other Monty Pytheon ones including the imfamous spam vikings.

Kramerman: I'm going to guess that you are a white guy in your mid 20s (that would make you about the right age to grow up with Star Wars) but other then that I can't really say.

heh, before i just posted pictures of Kramer from sienfeld, for who my namesake originates... i originally had him as my personal avatar, but didnt keep it long cause the pic was poor

hehe ive purposefully been very obscure about my age in the past, so as to kepp others from being condescending upon me (i cant stand that)

im actually 18 and on my way to be a freshmen all over again in college this summer...
but i am white 6 feet tall, pale (by virtue of genetics and not from sitting in front of the compyter all day, tho i do this...), and of slender (but not weak ) build.

I had my suspicions she was a DL of some guy who got the pics of the internet... but she kept posting so many! I think she liked all the attention, actually, that is why im suprised she is gone

hmm well. If you go to the California Poly meet you may just find out . I should be able to make it.

My hair isn't as blonde as my avatar. It hasn't been that blonde since I was a kid.

I'm not that pudgy either .

I guess I have some resemblance to the pip boy avatar. not much, but some.

You can make it all you have to do is figure out one place you're going to fly to between then and now. Book the flight you were going to take any way but make sure it is on a busy Friday or Monday so the flight will be over booked. Then volinteer to get bumped from the flight. Voila, one free domestic round trip and a 1st class upgrade on your original flight.

	Suffering from ads?

I do have a gun. I should get another gun to complete the image.

That's a good idea. I'll take a picture of myself with the guns and post it in the picture thread

I don't want people to think I'm a gun nut though. I might scare people away from the poly meet . Just to calm everyone down I have no homicidal thoughts.

and I do not have tight blue pants, sorry
