Prison Mike..... Just love the US office

 

[GeorgPrime]

I've often wondered, but never asked, why do you, as members here, pick certain images for your avatar?

My avatar represents the size of my hands.

Its motherfucking Georg Prime. One character from obe of my favorite RPGs Suikoden

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

Mine is King Garland from Radiant Historia. I loved the character (and he looks like me, as well!) so I started using his portrait from the original game as an avatar since I first joined GAF as a junior member back in '11-12

 

[YukiOnna]

Because Haruna is best shipgirl

Kizuna AI giving you the middle finger saying



I'm in my rebellious phase.

Based. Wish there was a middle finger reaction button out of respect.

 

[ExpandKong]

Kong give suggestive look

Prison Mike..... Just love the US office

During the original run I just stopped watching like four episodes after Carell left. I've since finished the entire thing and it was...fine I guess, but man.

 

[rorepmE]

Means I'm ready to party

This should also be a "how to pronounce my screen name" as well. OP included.

Yeah, baby !

 

[Lrnex]

He

I like classic anime but I wanted a character for my avatar which is a complete juxtaposing of my real-life self. I cannot identify at all with the character. I feel it you took an actual Happosai personality and put that person on GAF...their antics would not be tolerated more-than -a-week.

Happosai (character)

For other uses of Happosai, see Happosai Happosai As well as being a pervert, he is actually a strong practitioner of the Anything Goes style of martial arts. Happosai at Ranma Wiki - Retrieved 11-05-2022 Happosai at Furinkan.com - Retrieved 11-05-2022

I thought your avatar was Spider-Man all this time

Coffee. I love coffee

 

[Aggressive Carrot]

My avatar is just a piece of my face with some terrible editing on it.

 

[BigBooper]

I don't even remember what it's from honestly.

Prison Mike..... Just love the US office

Honestly it’s one of the greatest comedies of all time. Far better than the British version and I say that as a Brit.

 

[xrnzaaas]

I started rewatching The Office thanks to the pandemic and Kevin is still one of my favorite characters.

What is this? I don't like anime typically but this looks... cool?

 

[jacksondeam]

I like music

Reimagining of an older series.

It's not perfect, but great over the top animation.

[and 3 others]

Mine is from an infamous YouTuber/Twitch streamer from whom I've hate followed for years. darksydephil/DSP/The King of Hate/The King of Retro/Phillip Burnell/Half-a-Mill-Phil. He's probably the biggest narcissist online besides me. A prominent e-beggar and all around shit bag. My avatar is from a specific YouTube stream where he forgot to turn his camera off on his break where he quickly cranked one out in front of horrified, crying children.

That is not you?

Haha. Sorry. I'd kill myself if I was him. Hell, I wanna kill myself and I'm not him.

Well I want to kill myself now thanks to your avatar.

[Ten_Fold]

X men vs street fighter is what got me into fighting games, I was very young but I loved seeing the over the top crazy gameplay.

 

[Mr Hyde]

My avatar is a painting called "The Son of Man" from famed surrealist painter Rene Magritte.

I thought it was a fitting representation of me hiding behind an avatar. Our faces are obscured by images, that may or may not give hints about who we really are.

 

[Robot Carnival]

mine is Matsudo Heisuke from the manga/anime Kekkaishi. I just find that I like him as a character and his story is pretty cool.

 

[Jesus Carbomb]

We're supposed to have meaning to this GAF shit now?

 

[Mohonky]

It's from the band Combichrist (you've heard them if you played Devil May Cry)

 

[Shaqazooloo]

 

[Belmonte]

My avatar is an old Simon Belmont fanart I made.

I like Castlevania and classic games in general a lot , so it seemed appropriated to use it here. It mixes well with my nick, "Belmonte" also, which isn't a typo. It is actually my real middle name.

Here is the full version:

 

[Naibel]

Big Sega Saturn fan, loved the Segata Sanshiro commercials since I discovered them all those years ago.

When I thought about an avatar, I immediately remembered that Segata stillshot at the end of the ads. It was badass and funny at the same time. And it's Segata. And that's basically it.

If I have time I will make a pixel art version of it. I want my avatar to be truly custom

 

[kingbean]

Fuckin Mega Man X innit?

Favorite game.

 

[DogofWar]

Well I am the hog of war, what else would I have? A worm?

 

[Mista]

The greatest character of all mediums.

 

[ItsGreat]

Horizons.
The first thing I loaded onto my 48k rubber keyed Spectrum. I've been bundling towards that horizon for many years now and the videogaming rainbow is looking as bright as ever.

 

[iconmaster]

It's complicated.

 

[Nikana]

I'm the Red Ranger.

 

[and 3 others]

It's complicated.

You look like both Kyle and Woody from PKA had a child together.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

Simply my support for Hong Kong. I recently visited (December) and fell in love with the country as a whole after wanting to go for years and years.

 

[Stouffers]

My icon represents the existential duality of “Mephistopheles’s Riddle” and its impact on 17th century European literature.

 

[teezzy]

New phone. Who dis?

 

[raduque]

I like cats. So it's a cat. Also, he looks grumpy and I hate everybody and everything, so...

Hmmm...

 

[#Phonepunk#]

my avatar is from Kenneth Anger's 1964 underground film Scorpio Rising. it appears around 26 minutes in.



the film mixes a lot of new imagery together with old film footage and found comics and magazine art. at one point they show this skull with two images of Jesus superimposed on top of it.

the skull is taken from an old magazine, The November 8, 1938 edition of Look.
