My Avatar has been the same for ages and ages....... I like it myself (it actually is me...lol)...... not everyone feels this way RE: the second post in this whole thread (thanks dan T i feel honoured).... but contrary to what PEO said Avatars do not change that much sometimes... at least not mine as I have not had the time, inclination, patience or care...........

Same here; I think as size larger than 50x50 should be allowed because there is plenty of room, let's say, for a 150x150; just put limitations on file sizes.

Obviously the person who edited it did not make it look convincing; the bunny ears looks like a layer behind the head, also the ears have shadow, while the rest of the pic has no shadow at all.

the hood has a different shade of lighting to the rest of the image, and there is no background at all.

Therefore I conclude that Kerry was never in the bunny suit when he had that photo taken.

You didn't know that Kurt Cobain was dead??


What is important about this information is the fact that all of these individuals triumphed over their depression, and went on to live successful, productive lives...

I really don't think south park is for kids, It is the same for The Simpsons, and most of today’s cartoons.

It either has violence, or bad rude language, or both that parents would not like the kids saying.

It's not for kids. South Park, The Simpsons, Family Guy (love that show), Futurama and the like aren't for kids. They're meant for teens and adults who catch the amusement in them. And they're funny, so there!

Of'course not. Neither was written for children. I believe the Simpsons began as a side show on SNL and eventually became it's own show.

Swears are simply words, and if the kid understands the material, it obviously isn't going to corrupt him. As for violence? Violence is something that isn't going to go away. People are inherently violent- and although kids tend to get, er, "inspired" by it, it's not going to ruin them... it's just going to make life a little less pleasant.

No, you just don't notice. I am not saying its your fault, its just who you are. You are mature, you understand what is being said and you know whether or not to take it seriously. I have seen some of my little cousins be brainwashed by the media. It makes me sick what they have turned into. (I still love them of course :) ) It does make a difference.

Kids do watch these things, and I find that the kids that watch them are not the way the parents wanted them to grow up as.

Just look at it like this; if you are in an environment that is violent, and use bad language, you might have the best parents in the world, but its not just the parents that affect behaviour it is the environment as well.

Kids still have a lot to learn, but they still have to learn that what they see on tv is not always appropriate behaviour.

For example, they think killing is just a game. They do not see what it really is. I tried to talk to them about it, but they just wouldn't listen... but I guess thats probably because they are too young to understand. Other ways is how they've been taken over by corporate America to buy their products and play their games (of course.. they have been doing that for years). Parents feel they need to shield their children from this. For preventing profanity, and adult things from children.... you've got to protect their innocence for as long as possible. Have you read Catcher in the Rye? yes.... it is inevitable that their innocence will tarnish and there is no use moping about it, but there is nothing wrong in trying to protect them from the evils in the world...

Another thing would be how young people have become much, much more sexually oriented in years. The average age in which people of had sex keeps going lower and lower. It gets sort of disgusting when you see freshman in highschool have done it and such. They're so small its nasty. Of course, being an upperclassman in highschool myself, there are some hot girls in my class that I wouldn't mind.... umf.d..sd. ... I mean, yeah. So I bet that is pretty disgusting too to people of higher ages, but I just don't see it.

What do you mean? Male children are able to produce offspring as early as 12 years of age; some rare cases have reported earlier.

I have noticed. The most common age for a child to have his/her first sexual experiance is 14. What's scary is I've read about younger. The problem isn't a lack of education; it's that the education is geared the wrong way. It's rarly taught now that one should wait until marriage or a serious relationship, instead it's taught as 'perfectly normal' and instead of passing out discouragement they pass out condoms. Heck, today they're taught that there are no consequences, "If you get pregnent, terminate it". At this rate, it'll only get worse. :(
