    Avatars

    i was inspired by an insult from jona to ask - who has the best avatar? the worst? or perhaps, what are the best and worst you've ever seen?

    ps - don't say mine, cause that would make me feel bad.

    I like pyro's, but he wanted to change it once to one with a kid that looked terribly smug - it was great; I'm beginning to regret that I convinced him to keep his old one.

    I also like my own, as I am a very large fan of the Metroid video game series, and what's better, the hero - or should I say, heroine - is a woman! (Hey guys, take it from me, the girls like it when you say this kind of thing, so get used to putting yourself down un-manly-like. They'll be more sympathetic to you, in most cases. Don't tell them I said this, though...)

    What is it? If it's what I think it is, I wouldn't consider it brutal, I'd consider it sacreligious.

    Well I think that mine sucks a large amount of ass but I just can't be bothered to change it.

    Ah yes Andrew, you like the Death Metal. For those of you who don't know, some Death Metal bands include; [censored], [censored] [censored] and let's not forget [censored] [censored] [censored].

    I know a guy in my class who likes Death Metal, sometimes we gather round his CD Player and laugh at the deep throaty growls.

    Some people like music, others like this stuff they call... death metal? It's amazing, any noise you make could be classified as good music these days! I can understand intesne rock, but you know sometimes that metal stuff just gets too... nasty sounding. Anyway, that's just my opinion.

    Oh and buntine, now that I know what it is, ignore the comment I made about it being sacreligious.

    lol. Jet's okay... I like ~points to sig~ Linkin Park. Well, I like Trapt, Limp Bizkit, Kutless, and a lot of other bands... In fact, I think I oughtta change my avatar to something like "Linkin Park Rules!" or something. They should let you put graphics in the signatures...

    Please God no, then everyone would have those terrible 6000000px wide banners in their sig. Do you know how long it would take for me to load a page? It wouldn't, I think I'd leave.

    Linkin Park are pretty good but I didn't like Meteora much. Generally I listen to whatever is on Radio 1 or Key 103 when I'm on the school bus, they play all kinds of RnB crap but occasionally something good will come on.

    When it comes to music I'm a bit weird, I like D12 - My Band but I also kinda like some of the music that Pink does, I have an Evanescence album and also a Nine Inch Nails Album. I'd say that I'm pretty easy going really, I even like some Classical music!
