I hate when people switch icons

nam812 · July 13, 2007 7:24AM

You get to know the icons when you read the threads, and now I have to look at the name underneath to see who wrote what. It's like going to work and seeing a room full of strangers. Kirk out.

envoy98 · July 13, 2007 7:26AM

I was just thinking the same thing. Funny how you start to just associate people to the avatar instead of the name.

colebear · July 13, 2007 7:26AM

giggity, giggity, giggity......no wait

nam812 · July 13, 2007 7:32AM

See....that's not colebear. For shame.

envoy98 · July 13, 2007 7:34AM

<< giggity, giggity, giggity......no wait >>

Funny, you were actually one of the ones I was referring to. There is an rpcoletrane, colebear and another cole. I had to think about it.

colebear · July 13, 2007 7:41AM

no, I know what you mean. But I figured the last thing I want people to think of me is that I am similar to quagmire!!!

CDsNuts · July 13, 2007 7:52AM

Me too. I wanna kiss you.

nam812 · July 13, 2007 7:55AM

I cant even look at you now Lee. You sicken me.

colebear · July 13, 2007 8:01AM

this whole thread should be to reintroduce yourself

1989FleerBillRipkencollector · July 13, 2007 8:08AM

I almost switched.

I wish I could have 2 icons.

I mean who really cares when I joined (hey I joined before you so I win this argument) or how many posts I have (I can type alot !!!) or that thing I have under my name (collector, yeah right, I say that to buy the cards cheap from the kids.)

bigfische · July 13, 2007 8:22AM

I figure i better keep mine, i dont post much so at least i have a picture and a name to be remembered by.

stown · July 13, 2007 8:26AM

I just want to be politically incorrect every time I post.

scooter729 · July 13, 2007 8:26AM

<< I figure i better keep mine, i dont post much so at least i have a picture and a name to be remembered by. >>

I hear ya. Just wanted to post so no one forgets about me!

BTW - great icon, Lee!

prscott933 · July 13, 2007 8:29AM

i was finally able to upload my own icon, this one will stay. thanks to whomever i borrowed the beavis from!

TNTonPMS · July 13, 2007 8:46AM

The Gemini in me prevents me from ever staying the same for too long .

If we have the chance to experiment , we will .

Just a slight change for me .

I do know what you mean though, even though I am not here that long , I do associate the icons with the persons name , sometimes I even think the picture is them , Like you Mr. Nam . . . . you look just like William Shattner

Clemaz · July 13, 2007 8:55AM

Lee,

I thought your old icon was your self portrait.

1989FleerBillRipkencollector · July 13, 2007 9:15AM

For kicks, 10 of us should switch icons with each other for a month next go round.

zef204 · July 13, 2007 9:19AM

I'll take mine back shortly.

Just paying some respect to Mr. Belushi.

CDsNuts · July 13, 2007 9:33AM

I'll miss the goofy karate kid guy, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use a picture of a drunk Joe Namath. For anybody who doesn't know the story, go to youtube and do a search for "drunk joe namath".

detroitfan2 · July 13, 2007 9:47AM

I've always had the same one. I can't even spell avatar, much less download one.

nightcrawler · July 13, 2007 10:14AM

<< I've always had the same one. I can't even spell avatar, much less download one. >>

fandango · July 13, 2007 10:42AM

Lee, how often do you change your avatar? monthly?

CDsNuts · July 13, 2007 10:47AM

What can I say, I have A.D.D.

Houston · July 13, 2007 11:07AM

no one knows me anyways.... phooey

Publius · July 13, 2007 11:40AM

Ive been waiting to upload James Madison as an avatar for a long time, to ease into it, I had it down at my message board for quite awhile.

It is always confusing though, some people (Lee) embrace it. That karate kid thing always freaked me out, I like drunk namath tooling for a good time much better.

lostdart58 · July 13, 2007 11:47AM

I changed mine last month. It was the first time I have ever changed.

At least it now shows something I own...................

...what got me was that someone else decided to use my same avatar...................I bet that person does not even know what it is...

prscott933 · July 13, 2007 11:48AM

even though i'm pretty sure that karate kid pic wasn't Lee... i always imagined him as that guy. drunk joe is pretty cool, hopefully i can imagine Lee as drunk joe now

detroitfan2 · July 14, 2007 11:22AM

Nightcrawler, I do love that ole' English D. But I believe it's already taken.

jmbkb4 · July 14, 2007 11:30AM

<< Me too. I wanna kiss you. >>

Lee's gotta be the funniest guy on here.

funny, funny, funny clip.

he was so drunk during that interview he sounded childish.

CDsNuts · July 14, 2007 11:39AM

Well prscott, you got the drunk part right. And I have been known to try and kiss women, thereby firghtening them in the process.

WeekendHacker · January 27, 2008 1:44AM

When people change their icon, I have to read the name of who I am chatting with..............there should be a law against changing icons.

jamesgotpoorman · January 27, 2008 2:00AM

Also just one person at a time can have one.

BobaFett72 · January 27, 2008 2:22AM

Call the Waaaaaaaambulance, someones whining

ArchStanton · January 27, 2008 2:30AM

I switched back to a pic of myself. Hot dog, I am a class act.

ArnyVee · January 27, 2008 2:48AM

I keep the same avatar..sort of. You see, I have different shots of Ricky Gervais as David Brent from The Office (Original BBC Series...which was friggin' fantastic!).

I won't change much....although I did have one drunken evening with Rube's avatar. I have sworn to myself that I will never let myself get like that again.

stormsurge · January 27, 2008 4:02AM

I agree - always irritates me as well

Downtown1974 · January 27, 2008 4:09AM

I was gonna change mine last year. I wanted a pic of Jim Ignatowski from the show "Taxi", but couldnt find a good one.

rube26105 · January 27, 2008 4:16AM

reverand jim was too cool!!! that would be a grweat one of christopher lloyd - dads a millionaaire and he lived in condemed apt building

Yeah rube! That was a great episode when they knocked down his apartment with a wrecking ball while he was eating breakfast.

BobaFett72 · January 27, 2008 4:35AM

Variety is the spice of life.

Life is too short, live it a up a little

Here is a great Rev Jim!

larryallen73 · January 27, 2008 4:36AM

I think the icon you pick when you join should be yours forever.

SportsItUpCards · January 27, 2008 4:52AM

Thats exactly why I don't change mine!

I'm not out!!

Piman58 · January 27, 2008 5:06AM

I've always had this one. It has caused some confusion. When Guru changed to it a short while back, I started reading the posts and didn't remember typing the post.
At my age I was starting to get worried. Luckily I finally noticed Guru's handle under the avatar and immediately canceled my appointment with the shrink.

SportsItUpCards · January 27, 2008 5:08AM

See, when it comes to picking an avatar with a team on it, your really out of luck, because lots of people are probably gona take it too. The chose the one I have because I love Halloween, so it made sense to me. I also love the Yankees, but i'm pretty sure theirs others that do too, so I didn't go with a Yankees avatar, it dosen't make sense to me

I guess not to many people like Halloween?

My personal policy on my icon is simple- Red Sox from Spring Training until their last game of the year be it regular season, or playoffs then right to the Patriots until the start of spring training.

No love for the Celtics perkdog?

I hate bandwagon jumpers, sure Im a Boston guy but I havnt paid attention to the Celts since Bird and now that they are doing well I refuse to act like I am a passionate fan. I wish them well and if they make it to the championship series I will tune in but thats about as far as I will go with them, same thing for the Bruins.

ldferg · January 27, 2008 7:23AM

i laugh everytime i see lees....i can't help associating larry with him. LOL

edited to add: i changed mine once a few days ago when we all went the 'rube' route...

Perk,

Folks don't look at your avatar when you post. Other things tend to distract us from it.

nam812 · August 15, 2008 7:00AM

Bumped to say that I still hate when people change their icons.
