Should I build a bunker?
no
you call it a wine vault.
According to my cat, yes.
Is that the same cat that was reading military strategy earlier?

Of course.
I thought the cat WAS Jarhead. It's not an impossibility. My cat helps me with my posts, correcting spelling and gives me her opinion of my thoughts and then she goes to sleep. That should explain a lot.
My guess is that the Quint avatar is a more realistic representation of the actual Jarhead.
Good point.
actually its not.
It's funny, I keep thinking if I ever meet any of you in person, I'm going to be disappointed you don't look like your avatars.
Jarhead, not looking like a psychopath wielding sharp blades at the beach or on a boat somewhere.
Star, without a murderous/borderline pedo grin and a red mohawk to boot.
Sir Slash, not looking like a pug, or not wearing a pug t-shirt at least.
Ubercat, without his ears pinned back and a perpetual "WTF is that" look on his face.
Mirth, for not looking like Bill Murray in the slightest.
Bawb, for not wearing a full suit of armor.
Gus, not looking like he's just stuck his unmentionables in a light socket, causing his red hair to stick straight up on end and having a facial expression that somehow measures both unmitigated pleasure and complete shock that he's a dead man now.
...and so on.
^FWIW, I highly doubt you look like a cat who is a Japanese kamikazee pilot.
The truth is indeed much stranger than fiction.
In truth my resemblance to a Pterosaur or DH4 is passing at best. Sadly I am starting to take on many of the attributes of the zeppelin.
Time to switch to light beer.
(Noooooo!!! :o)

Star is the only one who does in fact look like his avatar.

He's also the only one who actually acts like his avatar.
>:D
Reading these forums makes me look like my avatar at least 3 times daily.
meep
Yep.

That's no pug. That's me with my shirt off. ::)
and we have a winner
my ankles aren't afraid of you.

they're terrified of Gus though
As they should be.
I heard he prefers cankles, though, because they're much more chewy and stretchy.
I hike my leg on you all. But I wouldn't hump a one of yours, no matter how much you rub my belly. ^-^
Pugs are NASTY farters. We had some friends in Dallas that owned three of the devilish things. Jeezus they could clear a room.
Also great camouflage for busting out an SBD and blaming it on the dog. >:D
I raised them for over 20 years. The females are very sweet but the males cannot stay out of trouble and will piss on everything within a 2 block radius. But they would sell like bibs at a Bar-B-Que.
My dog, as he ages, has been clearing out our tv room for years with his emissions.

Does this mean the special can of tunafish I keep around in case we meet isn't a good idea? What about the laser pointer that flashes the Rising Sun? :coolsmiley:

Clearly Sandman has not been paying close attention. Good man!
Perhaps that's true. Now that I think about it, there have been plenty of odd threads on this forum.

Odd is in the eye of the beholder. That it didn't catch your eye merely means you are home. O0
Odder than Pug Farts? I'm going to have to try harder.
pug farts have nothing on MMORPG midget porn.
especially at 5:25 - 6:13 when you see Gus.
That's 5:25 to 26:13...a good fluffer makes all the difference.
^Thanks. I try to do a good job.
Fluffing and Midget Porn. I think we're almost there.
That's about the size of it.
No it's not...this is.
For all that's holy - put it away, Gus, or you'll start the dogs farting again.
Eventually, this thread will be about computer wargaming or computer gaming.
Eventually.
Until then -- I happen to look a lot like my avatar. ;) (Though not so much as when Ghosty used to redraw it. :)) )

If one of our off-topic threads runs long enough, it will eventually touch on every possible topic, thus making it on-topic.

I was hoping someone would steer this conversation away from dog farts toward metaphysics. Thanks, mirth!
Don't forget about the Cat Bunkers that got all this started. Would they be referred to as Pussy Pillboxes I wonder?

I think they
must be referred to this way. Somebody create a meme, quick!
"Towards metaphysics" == RPF category. Topical check-off bingo!
("Bingo" == "Other Games Around The Table" category.)
I thought that was you in the avatar, Pratt. I feel robbed.
IMAGINE HOW FABIO FAN CORRESPONDENTS FEEL! :tickedoff: :smitten: :uglystupid2:
That's why it looks a lot like me. Except seven years ago. >:D
How is it different 7 years later?
I was a great Fabio. Probably better than the real thing.

I'm grabbing that gem.
You're welcome!
I was going to say I have whiter hair, but I think Ghosty proved by a judicious use of closeups that I already had lots of white hair back then. (Technically I've had white hair since I was around 6. Just in a more Reed Richards sort of way. It spread under my regular hair in my 20s.)
...um, I don't have that shirt anymore? And about ten more pounds that I'm constantly working on not increasing farther (or reducing but no ongoing success with that yet.)
