My av is from "The Sandman", which was a great comic book written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by a host of top-notch artists.

I chose the Matt Wagner version because I loved the look of it. Plus, I look that grumpy in my late night hours, as I skulk through the house, looking for tea to brew...

Gary, you are pissing me off ;) it seems you like eveything i do (Gaiman, Ground Force, Eddie Izzard...)...cool avatar by the way always was a big Sandman fan.

Anywhooo my avatar is self explanatory. AU owned my ass (among many others) so one bored day at the office I made a new avatar. I should have tried to make this half way interesting...but it's not.

As far as why i chose to use l33t and the "All your base..." reference. No real reason just thought it would be funny. l33t makes me laugh because of the idiocy of it and its rampant misuse on message boards and chats. And the all your base is self explanatory, i think.

w00t!

LOL! What can I say? We both have good taste (if that can be said in public)...

When you made your av, what font did you use to make it look like AU's logo's? I'm having a tough time recreating AU's logo for the bonus disc cover (a real pleasure, I assure you :wink:), and the font could be of a help.

Any way, back on topic; I got my fill of l33t (n00b, llama, etc...) after countless hours of playing Half-Life online against clans sporting their bizarre vocabulary. Why not just type it out, I ask aloud?

The "all your cash" line kills me everytime. :lol:

Actually it's pretty ballsy. Lots o' people are too afraid of the internet psycho stalkers to post a (real) picture of themselves in a public forum.

:D

I salute you, brave man!

Speaking of the grand dame Izzard, have you seen the new DVD "circle"?

His "the lunch line during break time on the death star" routine made me mess my pants.

I almost spit out my tea when I read that...

Not yet, but I'm looking forward to it. "Dress to Kill" was released on DVD here only a few weeks ago (brilliant show), and I'm hoping "Glorious" and "Circle" will follow suit.

I really need to get an all region player...

Thanks! :)
