Was watching Man Cooking: Swiss Meat Roll and got a huge laugh out of the faces that Morgan and Alex make when they slam the "BIGGER BACON!!!!" onto the counter.

So I made it into an amusing gif.

It's a me a...me..io. Uh yeah, anyway. I always try to use pictures of myself. It's not because I'm vain. It's because I'm vain and I want people to think of me if I'm rping my character on an rp board somewhere. I just liked the way the sword turned out in this one.

Edit: And upon realizing that I desperately need sleep, I realize that...that isn't the one I thought it was. Thats just a goofy picture of me that I hate because it makes me look like I have enormous cheeks, and also makes me look a little like Paul Giamati (to me.), but in a bad way.

That's right, I'm afraid. Dane Cook is one of my guilty pleasures... Sort of.

You might THINK you should be glad not to recognize it, but what if, and I'm going on a limb here, it WAS funny? Then you missed out on humor, and there's only so much laughter in the laughter bank man

I find myself torn on Dane Cook, I liked him back when he only had the one CD/DVD thing out and before he ever tried the acting thing, and before everyone started talking shit and making me feel bad for liking him. So I just secretly enjoy the two CD/DVD sets I have.

Even if he's a hack or whatever their criticisms are, he's still something of a local hero to me, hell he has a bit about Benson's which gives me the warm fuzzies inside because I know exactly what he's talking about and had similar frustrating experiences.

(Plus, I find him funnier than Adam Sandler and less obnoxious than Sarah Silverman, my other comedic local-hero options.)

Cause I'm a Reboot fanboy, am skeptical sometimes, love cats, and think Hexadecimal and Scuzzy are neat-o. At least thats the reason why I picked this Scuzzy, Hexadecimal's cat-like creature, looking skeptical avatar. maybe it'll be different next month.

Previously I had a screencap from "Ways to X to Y' of Graham and Paul being surprised in bed, but it was making me uncomfortable. I mean every time I'd post, they'd be staring at me in shock, Grahams pipe falling to the floor, as if I'd said something horrible.

I was signing up for LRR after seeing CSI: CSI, and at the time I was watching Futurama. There's something about a penguin with a gun I find oddly amusing. And it fit with the LRR Forum color scheme. So there. I'd change it, but I'm pretty everybody would forget who I was.

I don't know about you, but I've ended up imagining The Shatner doing a spoken word version of "The Lady in Red" but substituting Red for Aquamarine. Is that bad?

Also, I'm mixed between Bannanafish and Juliamon on the matter of Dane Cook. I think it's because, like Eddie Izzard, he's become too preachy. Except it happened to Dane Cook very early on in his career, and it's only happened recently within 2 years) for Izzard.
