early funny pictures thread someone posted a big cat, someone else needed the joke explained asked if there was a story about why the cat was so big, that was the reply

or so i remember.

probably could've used those brain cells for something better than "story about poo poo in the funny pictures thread".

There is a picture of a cat sitting behind some very detailed military action figures. At a glance it can look like tiny men with a regular sized cat, or regular men with a big cat.

Of course I can't find the picture now, so this post sucks.

The newbie avatar change isn't retroactive afaik.

There are also people who have Bonzi Buddy as a "real" avatar, likely courtesy of someone else.

drat, I was thinking of Garbage Dick. Must have been getting it confused with the newbie avatar which was the guy painted white imitating a toilet. (That one didn't last long.)

It is. Unlike regular avatars, all Stupid Newbie avatars likely point to a single file location so when the original is replaced with a new stupidnewbie.jpg, they all update.

Poops Mcgoots posted:

These are both from the Marvel Heroes thread in games. The first is a reference to the fact that the game has a prestige system, allowing you to reset the level of a character at the cap in return for minor rewards, one of which is changing the color of your name in chat and over your head. The last prestige, cosmic or yellow prestige, requires 25x the normal experience and is really only done by crazy people. The little sun that appears at the end is the current avatar of ICR, a prominent goon player who always tells people to cosmic today.

There's some overlap between sovereign citizens and bitcoin crazies so it's become sort of a thing.
