His head isn't swelling nearly as much as it will after Sunflower hits him with that bat.

She would never do that. She has a soft spot for ES just like Sprots does.....

Sprots does not have a soft spot for ES.

Admittedly, she would never hit him with a bat.

She would never get that close to him. Ugh!

I claimed a Found It for the painting of you preparing savory ES soup. Now beast has changed back to the painting of you threatening the gecko with a club, but I don't see how that's inspired by his "people who never took the SAT" post, so I'd simply challenge Harv's Found It as being an unsubstantiated claim.

Don't mock me...I was just trying to make a point to someone who was implying I was stupid.

And I was kidding...I've never read any of those books, and the movies instantly put me to sleep, like Saturday Night Live or any Mel Gibson or Kevin Costner movie.

I already know you possess superior intelligence. I am one of your favorites after all....... :wink:

Simply stated, I was the first person to call "found it" after lb changed his avatar back. This was a case where there was nothing that "inspired" the particular change of the avatar, so it was really a free shot for whoever could claim it.

No, found its can only be claimed for the specific post that led to the change.

Oh.

It's the "Arbitrary Avatar Change" rule.

Uly usually didn't behave that way. :wink:

Yes, that is the general rule, but as Marley has pointed out, this is an instance where application of the "arbitrary avatar change" rule is more appropriate.

It was a temporary change to an apropos avatar. As soon as it had it's 15 minutes of refame, I put today's regularly scheduled avatar back up.....

But by doing that, you did create chaos in an area where there was no direct guidance under the "Found It" rules . . . :mrgreen: Of course, now a precedent has been established for the "Arbitrary Avatar Change" rule . . .

Arbitrary? Does that word mean what I think it means?
