I dunno, the first one is good but I think 3 and 9 give it a run for its money.

My vote is still for number 1. I mean, not only is it freakish, like all the others, but how frigging more useless cna you get? A bird of prey mixed with... a FROG'S BODY? That's like having a supervillain with the abilities of a toad... wait...

anyway, although it made no sense whatsoever, it looked the most "real" to me. That was pretty cool.

Yeah, and it makes me throw up every time I look at it. Great choice for an avatar, not.

Some of you might have seen this, but it still remains as the single catchiest thing I have ever seen. It completely killed the last few paragraphs of an essay I was writing for AP European History when it started playing in my head.

But jampaladin, I thought you were teaching us (by example) that the whole point behind choosing an avatar was to make those who look at it throw up. ::)

I have to say that I like 'Kenya' better, but the wizard one is nifty too.

In honor of that, I post this.  (For Sprig, mostly.  I think he'll get a kick out of it.)

Ironic bemusement my can.  My avatar is too cute to make people throw up.

d) Spurius Logic.

I'm JamPaladin. Who is this "jampaladin" you speak of. I know no-one of that name, as I am JamPaladin.

I wasn't going to post this until i got to the part on their faq about, "How do I return a defective penguin?" and then I just couldn't resist.
