Nah, this is just one of those incidents where adults are catching a laugh out of doing something 11-ish. I just keep in mind something a guy at work told me which I thought had some major truth to it: maturity is knowing the proper time and place for immaturity. You gotta have a laugh once in a while, even if it's a bit of an eye-roller (I've got NT friends in their mid twenties asking me to pull their finger still periodically).

It might have been funny at first, but I'm glad it's all over. And I am also glad that someone else was around to say something before I did. :) Hale_bopp, if you need a new avatar, I'll PM you with a few sites to get different avatars, including the one that I originally had. Just let me know if you'd like the URLs.

Nice site, Sophist. I shall recommend http://grayfalcongraphics.com/html/avatars.html for some different avatars. The owner of this site drew the characters and scanned them into the computer, which is really cool. :) Or, if you are into LotR, I shall recommend http://www.arwen-undomiel.com/avatars.html to be used for some other spiffy avatars. :)

I was getting really fed up of seans face everywhere. I mean, no offence sean, but a face staring at me 24/7 from a PC screen is disturbing.

Hmm...maybe I'll use the Big Brother eye from 1984 as an avatar and invite others to use it as well. :twisted:

Anyway Sean's face isn't staring at you, it's staring at the start button on Windows.

Yeah, I had my doubts on him having two wonky eyes in the same direction. :P
