EN World photos - post yours! (was "Secrets")

No camera.....no scanner....

Looked thru the photos. Folks are good....

No tatoos (except for radiation treatments), Glasses yes but don't need them regularly. Facial hair...? I'm 1/2 Scot and 1/4 Irish with then 1/4 of anything remaining....I don't grow a beard- I grow groupings of thickets. Wife hates it at times.

So instead of photo-

Look 45 (not real age)
235 lbs
Male
Children ask me if I'm pregnant in the checkout lines
Always look grim and mad (not- Just the way I is so get over it ya bastaches!)
As a leo- Morning hair looks like combed hair- Medusa's (comics) hair has less a mind of it's own.

All that and I'm still here smilin' (dosen't show but I am- really!)

I thought I was the only HS football coach in the world who played D&D. Wow. I feel like I am not alone now.

You go Coach Pogre!

Makes me feel differently about the coaches at school.

Piratecat, are you afraid that someone might take the good-natured ribbing seriously and get offended? Just curious because I've always felt that some degree of good-natured ribbing was important to a friendly community, and this thread kind of started out from square one with that kind of atmosphere. Kind of a 'If we can't laugh at ourselves" kind of thing.

I was wondering the same.

You should come our gaming nights and the insults fly.

Nobody, except perhaps the person the lowest selfesteem or with the most bloated ego, would take offense at the things said in this thread.

Actually, guys, I've seen flame wars start out with less. Someone who hasn't been around the community a while might think someone is being picked on and jump in to their defense. Matter of fact, I've seen such an occurrence recently on these boards. While it didn't erupt into a flat-out flame war, it prompted some angry posts. So I don't think PC is being unnecessarily jumpy, in this case.

Wolv0rine, in general I'm all for good-natured ribbing. Picture threads are the exception.

In my experience, joking about someone's appearance and actually insulting them can be tricky to distinguish online, and few folks would want to post a photo of themselves if mocking is a possibility. I'm just as happy to eliminate the possibility of insults completely. That way if people want to show us what they look like (which I think is incredibly cool), so they get to do it in an environment where they're not going to regret doing so.

Sorry if anyone disagrees, but those are the rules. Any further discussion of this should take place in the Meta forum, please. Thanks!

Okay, who's next?

That would be me I suppose.
This picture was taken a couple of years ago by the lovely woman that was to become my wife, on our first camping trip together.

I also wanted to post a picture of the whole family, since so many of you sent along kind wishes earlier this year when our second son Griffin arrived

.

As an FYI, this picture is probably 7 or 8 months old. Someday soon I'll get around to updating the photo files on my computer...
