Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

You are becoming obsessed Steve- take care - looks like a new quiz fiend has been created.:D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

You know I'd much rather pucker up to the Li'l Blue Boy...

I never moan;)

On the end of your blow pipe?


:eek:

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Bad move Neil -that was soooooo annoying!

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Thanks, but no thanks, admittedly my standards are set low & I often fail to achieve them, but they are standards. :D

Good man - keep the flag flying!:rolleyes:

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Rindy's done it yet again..............his new avatar is annoying......of a rude Mona Lisa

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

She's not rude.

She's just a bit cheeky.

;):D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

You'd have had sunglasses for a while longer, until mobertol blurted out who it was.

;):cool:

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Mea culpa -mea culpa-mea maxima culpa.....how long does the auto-flagellation have to last:rolleyes:

Can i remove the hair-shirt please -it's a bit itchy....;):D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Its a pity the one in the Louvre doesn't do the same:D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Life is far too short to get annoyed at an avatar.
I like the rude 'La Giaconda'....it puts a whole new twist on the enigmatic lady.

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Here,here Margaret I agree.

Anyway he is banned again so prob will be quiet for a while. :D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

I have him on ignore so I wouldn't have known if you hadn't said.

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Oh God.

I think the record stands at three...so far.

:rolleyes:

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Um so he is, looks like the dead thread revival is on suspension for a while :D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Wouldn't lose any sleep if he was gone fer good.

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Have been trying to work out what Garinda's new avatar is. Seems sort of fishy - some kind of sparkly scales on a mask.

Could it be a masked wrestler or perhaps something to do with the Carnival in Rio?

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

It's a decorative letter G - think of medieval monks transcribing a book.

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

It's changed since that one Margaret -look again!

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

I've lost count of the number of avatars Rindi has had over the years

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

It's the late performance artist Leigh Bowery.

He's in a book I'm reading at the moment.

Didn't know him well, but we had a mutual friend, and I used to see him out and about.

If you'd had a li'l drinky, and he came dancing next to you in a club, it could make you think your drinks may have been spiked, with some mind-bending drugs.

:eek::D:eek:

Leigh Bowery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

:D

I though he was funny.

I liked seeing him give birth to his own wife, though I always stood well back when he did his infamous human fountain act.

:eek::D:eek:

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

There's an interesting film about him on You Tube, in six parts, about an hour in length.

The Legend of Leigh Bowery (1/6) - YouTube

Our mutual friend's interviewed.

Though I'm not saying which of the freak people they are.

:rolleyes::D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Had a good read of what you posted - what's the title of the book?

I begin to realise what a sheltered life I've lead. (As if I didn't know -begin to regret having abandonned ship back in '87...:rolleyes:)

Can't say I'm jealous exactly but definitely curious. Am preparing a list of questions - don't think you're getting away with a Wikipedia general "tamed down" link. I want the whole truth.;):D

Oh, by the way - not a bit attractive as far as I'm concerned. Probably need a few Li'l drinkies!

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Haven't managed to watch this yet -have to wait till I'm alone and in peace. (Shortly hopefully!) Will have a guess -i do like a quiz...

It's not you by any chance in some kind of disguise is it?

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

He features quite a bit in Boy George's latest book, Straight.

I only knew him to say hello to.

Though he did make me think I was seeing things, when he'd suddenly appear next to you on some dance floor.

His first mentor, I knew first. Who I met when I was fourteen, whilst clubbing, after escaping through a hotel window, on a school trip to London.

:D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

So that's 2 clubbing nights on the list, you still havent given me the full details of St-Tropez aged 12 yet.

From little pie prince to deliciously bad school-boy -our school trips were so tame (well mostly;)!):D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

I was always keen for adventure.

Luckily I was nearly six foot aged twelve, and quick witted.

Oh, and lucky.

Not to come to a sticky end.

(Good name for a club, that.)

:D

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Watched the film now - from the little I've seen and my own "psycho-babble" intuition - I perceive some sadness. Drawing attention to yourself in such an outrageous way can only be an extreme way of hiding - from others, yourself or whatever.

Most of what I want to say is better not written here. Will tell it to you sometime in first person and use you as a sounding board if that's OK.

We all have elements of extremism - I don't think anyone is either one thing or the other - there are just loads of factors working together to make us who we are and also , more importantly, not what we are but what we can be...

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

I just found him funny.

He amused me.

I admire people that push boundaries.

:)

Re: What avatars annoy you?
 

Well, the photo makes an interesting Avatar -very eye-catching. Not sure I'd have tried out any of his designs though -just a bit too way-out, more art than fashion.

An interesting character, but having seen his "very normal" family it's hard to imagine how he came along. Sad he died so young though.
