Avatar explanation....

It started at work.

Someone said: "Wait, let's just get the forklift."

I didn't wait - I picked up an air conditioner top half, box and all, and carried it inside....

Then there are the mondo sub sandwhiches I like, loaded with jalapeno's...
I keep one in my toolbox and munch through the day.

One of the guys started to make jokes that I didn't understand the reference to.
"That's a NICE boulder.... I like that boulder..."

And so on.

I twigged to the Shrek thing eventually, and one morning (after buyng the first movie and watching it) I heard another "Boulder" reference, and muffled laughter, so I turned around and said: "MIND YOUR MANNERS, LITTLE DONKEY!"

After that - IT WAS ON!!!

Sweet Jesus, I'm in love with your avatar...I've been searching everywhere for that woman. I feel sorry for the poor thing, all her clothes are too small and ripped...I want to take her in and help her out...

OK Wolf, Now I see the truth. You haven't aged well since '05.

It took alot of searching to find that one. It should be worth two points.
I bet you're wondering how that drunk remembered that. I'm wondering how I remembered too.

Holy crap, he's right...I want to know what you've been drinking (smoking, taking, eating, whatever) so I can stay away from it...

I stick with the pig because it grabs attention and gives me a good laugh.

Dennis, I like the one you used with the guy on the typewriter. Fits in with your post count.

I MISS THE FRIGGIN' WOLF WITH THE TONGUE HANGING OUT AND THE MEAN EXPRESSION ON THE FACE!.....WTH is the matter with you?.......BRING BACK THE WOLF!!!!!.....That damned "cartoon" figure ROCKED!.....and was well-known to boot!

All in favor?......
