Consider my avatar changed. It will now represent something else that I wish to be, something perhaps just as scary but not as threatening.

I have a fantasy about being seduced with hazelnuts and fruity wine by a mysterious lover. Except they're dressed as a ferret.

OK - The ferret part changes everything . I'll retract my first assessment that you're gay and hate your mother . You're gay and hate your father .

Well, I'm pretty sure Moldy Crow isn't dead. So I don't think avatars really mean anything.

Your avatar caused me to stop all animations, some of which I used to enjoy. :'( I go crazy if I try to read a thread in which you have written and the animation is not disabled. (Hopscotch had an equally painful avatar not long ago, but luckily he changed it after a short time.)

I thought the avatar was supposed to be some sort of self-portrait. Mine is.

Only indirectly. The nuns at my elementary school utilized some of their techniques.
