Oh my god, I laugh myself silly every time I look at it. I want it for my avatar!! Please, some smart avatar person give it to me!!! (it's too big, I wouldn't know how to size it down)

Tarski does, indeed, get the prize for the best use of a picture EVER. It was on this thread (and apologies to one of my favorite believers, asbestosman, but your comment really did merit a

HUH?

So let me tie this into Mormonism somehow so this thread doesn't get the boot. Lately I admit to having less patience with internet Defenders of the Faith, and find more and more of their defenses just plain silly. So I really, really, need this pix as my avatar. Aside from the fact that it's the funniest thing I've ever seen. It takes a lot for me to be willing to give the maya goddess the boot (my current avatar)

Bless you my child.

Well, as an "old lady", you can hardly expect me to be "with it". Or on the "down low". Or whatever the "young people" are saying now-a-days. ;)

HA! It give me great joy to announce the skippy the dead WINS! The smart-alec LOAP's was still TOO BIG. So THERE, mr. "I'm so young" smartie-pants.

I just didn't want to be indebted to someone who calls me an old lady. (pooting in LOAP's general direction)

Chose the wrong setting, my bad. Shadyland has ridiculous avatar restrictions. Oppression. (I prefer the face crop myself. Gets the essence of the monkey better in my opinion.)
