Hehe.. Go for it....
It's still pretty funny even if you know the story behind it...
It was a comment someone made about my
forum avatar over on the Reaper forums...
It's a picture I took of a cast-resin skull covered in Celtic knotwork that my brother gave me for my birthday one year, wearing my favorite Irish cap... Of course, as a forum avatar, it's a really small picture, and sort of looks like the skull is just a green color.
In the Randomness thread over there, a lot of us use forum personas based on our avatars - a white dragon, a barbarian, a platypus with a jetpack, a purple kitten, a technicolor wolf, etc... Obviously, I'm a talking green skull.
In one of the other threads, the "Question of the Day" involved saying something nice about the poster above you, and someone mentioned that my skull was "very bright and pretty"...
Which made me realize that despite having had the skull for more than a decade I had never actually taken a single picture of it
without the hat on it. So I posted some pics of it, and that comments was one of the responses...
It does look a
lot cooler when you can see it close up.
