nothing personal. i hope it's really just a subtle spoof of something. it reminds me of the kids tormenting judas in that mel gibson movie. maybe i have something on my conscience.

people used to say i looked like the unabomber. that was kinda cool but it got stale after a while, after the 50th time. i guess it died down when he stopped being in the news all the time. his manifesto's actually a pretty good read, though.

now people say i look like jesus. i think the unabomber was a better fit. but beauty's only skin deep, as they say.

Shocking but true - that`s actually what Joe looks like in real life.

I think it's because we've been looking at funky Photoshop-ed pictures of Joe for so long they start to look normal. Now, when we look at a "normal" picture of Joe (if there is such a thing as a normal picture of Joe) we can't recognize him!

Hey, Ian ... let's go to Berkeley this weekend and find a projectionist that looks like Jesus the Unabomber and take his picture.

PS - I took that photo of Joe a couple of hours after I poked his eyeballs out.

Don't like my picture, eh? Not good enough for you, eh? Well let's see. I think maybe I might forget NOT to ban you!

uh oh, mark. now we're both pissed at you!

i almost like joe's new post-specific pics. and credit is due for taking the time to do that. or is it random and they just happen to seem to match the emotion of the post? i revoke the credit if that's the case.

oh and, we don't allow cameras in our theater. you'll have to disguise it as a pizza.

It's an AI algorithm I wrote. It chooses the picture based on the wording of the post.

I assume there is one was specifically intended to post in response to people who don't submit member photos.

You know you want me, Rachel! [Smile]

The reason this thread isn't right is because carl martin can't even capitalize my name. Probably flunked out of elementary school! [Razz]
