I like the first avatar Zonker used. He may have quit using it because it was too close of a representation.

harrumph! some people have nothing better to do.

while other people.....

Anybody has the option of having an avatar or not.
Being a fan of Monty Python, "crunchy frog", I ran across this guy who looked
painfully sleep-deprived--and my avatar was born--the only one I have had.

@Zonker,

You set your avatar, nice.

It really is amazing how we use the avatar to identify posts instead if names.

I was taken aback when pugsy changed hers, and then when pr changed his, twice.

Spoiler.

it didn't spoil it for me. when looking for an avatar, i was concentrating on zonker p. harris, but couldn't find a pic that i really liked. but screaming yellow zonkers character kept popping up. didn't want to use it.

but given the whole question of why i eat popcorn, then the modified gifs and such, THEN you came up with the winner.

appreciate it, cg, as it is so appropriate now.

Word has it that you found a pic you really liked. But, didn't know how it would go over with the other members.

HA! good one. no, really i was looking for a particular early doonesbury strip. in it, zonker has been scolded by b.d., i think. at any rate, he's being told that he's missed his last chance to get his finals done and now faces failure and disgrace. zonker says nothing to counter this barrage. then a still panel of zonker, who's expression has never changed. last panel show zonker with a thought balloon reading "bummer."

for some reason, this absolutely slayed me as a young man. but i could never find that cartoon online.

This one?
