The penguin suits me 
.
Two main reasons...
1. It looks confused.
2. Go Tux... the Linux penguin.

Shaman King is my latest obsession, and Len is my favourite character.
He comes of as tough and unfeeling but he's a total Sweetheart, and so adorable.

I dig eastern philosophy/mysticism, and there was a Zen priest called Zhaozhou ("zh" is pronounced as "ch" in Chinese) who became quite famous for his paradoxical teachings. The most famous is:
A monk asked Chao-chou, "Has the dog Buddha-nature or not?" Chao-chou said, "Wu."
Zhaozhou couldn't answer "no" because some ancient masters said that dogs indeed have Buddha nature, and it would be disrespectful to deny their wisdom, but by answering "yes" he would have simply blindly followed their teachings, so he answered "wu", or "the question is wrong". It is also similar to dog's bark.
I tried to tell another person this koan, but she wasn't interested 
That gave me the idea for my avatar, it's a dog who got angry because someone keeps asking him whether the dog has Buddha-nature or not.

My avatar has been, over the last little while, changed from a shot of David Tennant's version of the Doctor from Doctor Who, to a scan of V from V for Vendetta (the comic book rather than the movie), to the Ninja Burger logo, to finally David Tennant again, though a different picture.

"So I drew" is the correct way. Also, you have a Shift key there for a reason.
