I often use my picture as my avatar because I feel that it helps to make this place a little less 'impersonal'...I like to be able to 'look at' the person that I'm 'talking' to, and I think that a lot of people feel the same way...I really wish that ALL of you guys would use your pictures as your avatars...But, it doesn't really look like it's catching on.....Oh well...

What? You dont htink mine look slike me? FINE! crush my dreams....

LOL...Ya know...I would ESPECIALLY like seeing YOUR face when I read your posts...Cuz you even LOOK like a comedian...I'm betting it would make your posts even funnier...lol

I always have a heavy rotation of evil clowns, jesters or any other type of insane; makeup-wearing freaks.

My reasoning is I hate/fear clowns. I choose the avatars as symbolism for facing my fear.

However, I truly believe that I am not all too different from someone who looks happy/harmless on the outside...but underneath the "makeup" lies a dark; tortured soul.

So, in a weird way...I am fearing what I can actually relate to.

Plus, I choose the avatars because they seem to match my screen name pretty well. I've used "Haphazard" for everything from way back in the day. The name was for a comic book villain I had created. (not a clown).

I have assumed Haphazard as my alter ego. No rhyme or reason for most of the things I do.

hmmm....

i AM using my face as my avatar !

no wonder you're a good volleyball player, who the hell is going to purposely run and jump up to meet that up close.

and the ladies like the big purple tongue !

I bet they like it when your ears wiggle.

Hell, I'm getting turned on a little...

Personally I'd like to snuggle up with that soft, warm polar bear fur.
