Yeah right, like I'd really allow you guys to determine anything about my future.

Point is, it was recently brought to my attention that my current avatar is not exactly visible.
 
The story goes that the Whistler wanted to buy breakfast at his local gas station, and getting out of his car, noticed that the "S" in the "SMOG CHECK" sign was covered, so it said...uh, "MOG CHECK." Which was close enough to "MOOG CHECK" for me. Assuming that his fellow progsters at the online intarweb would find it amusing, he took its picture and made it his crappy, little avatar.
 
In case you didn't now, my brain doesn't function very good in the early hours...like before noon and such.
 
So, what should I do about...(motions above)...you know...?

Whoah, slow down man; it's morning where you are, that's bad enough for me.

I'd say surprise me but since I know you would surprise me I'd be ready for the surprise and thus it would not be a surprise but you acting like a fool trying to surprise someone who knew it was coming. After I ramble on for about a sentence or two, depending on my mental state at the time of this post - which is irrelevant in this case, I will decide what to vote.

Since I don't want to say your new one is "hawt" and I do not want to you to run naked (that would really scare me) I will vote to bring back the old one since by this means of deduction I have decided is the only option that is able to be chosen without monstrous effects in the future.

Well then, it sounds like I could surprise YOU two ways:
 
I could have an avatar of me naked, but I probably wouldn't do that.
 
OR I could...well, then it wouldn't be a surprise. Heh, heh...

Ian on one foot suits you better!

Each piece as amorphous as the other - Each piece in its lack of shape a lie

That picture is awful, it looks more like Anathema's Fine Day To Exit than anything else. Surprise me.

Crap...uh, I gotta think about this. The "surprise me" option that I had in mind has recently flopped, so...I'll get back to you on that...

HEY! I thought that photo was very clever when I snapped it in a Syd Barrett-esque state of world awareness.
 
Also: I think my "surprise" thing will work, but it's intensely stupid. More so than even I realized. And I'm pretty stupd.
 
ALSO: 4K! 4K! 4K! This statement will have no meaning soon enough, so please ignore .
