I'll show you mine, if you show me yours Curious George: I think it would be, as Plegmund said, strange and wonderful to see you in the flesh. So to speak.

How cool to put faces to the names thanks to the NY meetup, and they are a handsome bunch of simians, to be sure. Anyone else think it would be neat to post pics to ID each other? It would certainly help me to avoid such a faux pas as was created the other day. SideDish is female! If one of the extroverts start, I'll post. Otherwise I'm a chicken poop in my own post. *hangs head in shame We want you introverts that don't talk, too. Rules: You can only post cartoon pics if you actually look like Daffy Duck. No more ass tatts, even if it's your best side

  • I would 'cept I need someone (ignorantslut) to post for me?
  • Nice, dng, you managed to keep us from really seeing you.=(
  • SideDish! hair's a bit longer now and different glasses but you get the picture, pun intended. (and blue, no need to feel bad for thinking me a man, i have an androgynous name so i'm used to it!)
  • Sullivan Give it up bitches! Who's the fairest of them all?
  • come on, GramMa, give it up!
  • (sully! just EXACTLY as i had pictured you! heh.)
  • Darshon - you know I'm your photo slut, er gal. Send 'em my way monkies and make sure your user name is included in your email somewhere. kellie (at) albuqueerque.com. Oh and here's me.
  • Nice, dng, you managed to keep us from really seeing you.=( Oh, you've made me feel guilty, now. So, for Darshon: Me
  • Me, in full passport photo mode and looking slightly like a zombie Me rocking out because, you see, I'm on a small rocking horse, and... forget it
  • Well, as Uncle posted earlier, here is me . Here is me in the scene shop. (slightly older picture and longer hair)
  • oh dear. i'm developing several cybercrushes already. ha!
  • I'm not coming to any meetup but here is Nostrildamus looking rather like he's seen the light. And yes, that's me. Too much orange. But I have very long hair now, and will attack on sight.
  • ha! surly! i'd love to have seen what happened about a tenth of a second after that first photo was snapped.
  • Skrik when his hypothyroidism and chronic depression was as yet undiagnosed/ under treatment.
  • Not much, I'm a trained professional. I do stuff like that all the time. =) Here's a headshot
  • Well, I usually don't show myself in the flesh (considering that the botfly is currently laying its eggs there), but here is the most recent SFW picture of myself, taken at the L.A. Meetup, and my prized 20-plus-years-ago pic of me with Oscar.
  • Here's Ramix
  • me! Just a regular geek girl. :)
  • oh, hello.
  • Me.
  • I'm the striped one on the right...taken about 2 years ago mind you.
  • Hey, BlueHorse - come on now, where's yours ...?
  • Me from a few years ago. My hair is short now and I've had a kid, which does a bit of havoc on the body.
  • Nothing to see here.
  • Now my day is complete - I was waiting to see the face that went with danapiper's tattoos!
  • The dude Ramix is... You know... Not a dude! A chick! That's the one. well, shit.
  • Sure, what the hell. You may view either my regular headshot or my impressive professional persona.
  • Alright, BlueHorse, we're all awaitin'.
  • Eek!! I go away for a couple hours, and what happens? The Monkeys have taken over the asylum! My, we ARE a fine troop. Now I gotta cough up and see if I can get this @)$(&%&#@ site to upload a digipic. Oh, meanwhile, here's a picture of yer fairy GramMa doin' her thing.
  • GramMa, that picture raises many more questions than it answers!
  • Here is a reasonable likeness of myself
  • I believe GramMa's the winner. Okay, ladies, who here likes their men covered in poo? Hmmmmm? Well, here's me (top picture) on a spelunking trip in the Ozarks. That area of the cave was officially known as the Colon Crawls.
  • oh GOD spelunking! that is one activity i just DO NOT understand. crawl around in teensy spaces underground!!! i'm not claustrophobic by any means, but that just creeps me out. perhaps you can start a thread explaining just what you enjoy about it, i'd sure be curious.
  • I'm particularly nostalgic about that one, as it was my first cave ever, and it beat the hell out of me. Some of the other areas were named (actually on the map) the Birth Canal, the Meat Grinder, and the portal into the Colon Crawls was (natch) the Sphincter. We spent 6.5 hours in there and were ready to die by the end. I brought about six pounds of Missouri clay home with me that night in my clothing. I don't know if it deserves a whole thread or not, so here's the gist: First off, it's really, really beautiful down there. The rock formations, the underground streams, some have huge rooms that were used as speakeasies during Prohibition. Even the bats and lizards are beautiful (cute little guys, not at all harmful). As a guy, though, it has at least as much to do with the excitement of exploration and the test of physical skill. This cave would probably be nothing to a pro (no real vertical climbs), but it slapped me around and called me girl names. It taught me a little about my own limitations. It brought my friends and me closer together (Josh there on the bottom pic's one of my closest). And, though it's going to sound incredibly corny and goes against my otherwise mocking and surly demeanor, it inspired a little awe for God's creation. It's a world I'd never seen before, didn't know existed. Yeah, the cramped spaces can be rough even if you're not claustrophobic -- the worst is when you get a little way in and turn your lamps off to let your eyes adjust -- but you get over it quickly.
  • Muha ha ha ha... /flagpole sneaks to pixelwrenching station, rubbing hands and grinning maniacally
  • Blaise, no shit! that dude Ramix is really a chick! What is this world coming to?!!
  • FWIW -- here is a semi-decent picture of me, circa 1993 -- I'm a bit (!) more "full figured" now, and my hair is just a wee bit less, well, full.
  • Bluehorse - is that an Arab? If so, I'm more interested in the horse than you. On the other hand, I'd really like to see a picture that was about you instead of the horse. And, I have to ask what the occasion was for that shot. It's. um, unique.
  • Anyone but me notice the high ratio of hot chicks to Hair Club for Men "before" photos?
  • Ah, Flagpole, that makes me laugh every time! Why, GramMa, I never knew you were so stunning in pink! Fabulous!
  • Yay! *bananas* to IgnorantSlut for helping me post this silly picture from Tiki Party 2003
  • Also courtesy of IgSlu, here I am in my back yard.
  • Here's me, at the computer, of course. (Yikes! On preview, sorry I didn't reduce that before I sent it!!) Warning, it will seem that I am much closer to you than I actually am, use caution. Yay! for IgnorantSlut! Bananas to you.
  • Wolof, please don't tease like that. That cannot be your backyard. That's a fantastic picture.
  • Not how I usually dress, but certainly more than enough flesh. (Probably SFW).
  • Um, some of you girls are like hot and stuff?
  • Especially that Vitalorgnz chick. HOTT.
  • Me. Last year. Sorry, it's the only digital photo I have.
  • Okay, I'll show you mine. Darshon is female? Wolof looks like how I pictured him, I guess. I'm going to put Vitalorgnz on my desktop wallpaper. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrroawr!!! Sexy! I'm also going to mug surlyboi for his iPod next time I see him on the subway. Like a ninja. He'll never hear me coming...
  • Which one are you in the photo, Wedge?
  • Nothing can top BlueHorse's pic, so I won't even try. Me recording to pixel a haircut that was soon to fall by the scissors. Me at a friend's wedding (with live action poor posture).
  • There's a decent pic of me on my Blogger profile, as well as a few pics interspersed thoughout my blog (you can find that URL elsewhere).
  • you are right, path. i do believe we have bluehorse, on an arab, in costume class. although that does not look like a traditional arab costume from the standards i remember. but then again, i've seen some mighty pretty quarter horses, where the arabian prepotency for head structure has been carried on. now i must go find my picture in arabian costume...it's 25 years old, but hell, i was looking pretty good back then. / i'm thinking of posting on gardening, as it's all i've been doing for the last week.
  • On review: y'all look exactly the way I've pictured. 'cept for Wolof doing his Anne Rice impression.
  • ok I will join in the fun here. pic of me at burning man a few years ago...heehee
  • Here's the Zemat! By the way... I think I'm falling in love with musingmelpomene.
  • Zemat, that second photo gives me vertigo just looking at it. And yeah, seems like just about all the MoFi gals could inspire romantic thoughts. Howcum they're knockouts and us guys... not so much?
  • This is the internet, languagehat - all the girls are actually guys, pretending to be girls. Its obvious really.
  • Languagehat, try to imagine yourself up there with high wind speeds (like those experienced between high-rise buildings in NY) and you get an idea how shit-scared was I while posing for that photo.
  • hi.
  • i officially have a group crush on everyone...! everybody looks so friendly and smart and cute, rawr...! this is me
  • Gasp in awe at the ever changing styles of flashboy! (the one on the right looking like a freak, the one at the front looking like a freak, and the one looking like a freak, respectively) Zemat looks slightly like the actor Billy Zane, at least in that picture. A little. Perhaps.
  • STOP HOTLINKING MY SHIT (pppppbblt) Hoi jerkface! Quit using my copyrighted images for your website background / ebay auction / mastrubation fodder. If you think you've reached this page in error, contact me and I'll let you through. Someone doesn't want me to see you, Daniel.
  • daniel, you've ganked your own photos and are subsequently shouting at yourself for it :-D
  • Suomynona: You look strangly familiar .... Any other Monkey woman out there think MCTool looks good in poo? I do. Is it really poo, Mr. Tool, as in bat poo, or just mud? Just thinking about deep dark mucky places .... *shudders See how you are Flagpole? You have to goof off and ruin it for everyone. OTOH, Davidmsc is a handsome dude that put up a very nice picture. HE knows how to play well with others. Don't monkey with the Space Kitty, she's got flashy polished claws. And a paper umbrella. Fes: nice tie, you look very professional--even well polished, I venture to say ;) Wolof: was that you on the right or the left? w0w, Darshon's got RED hair and the BLUEST eyes. Look out Monkeys! BBF: Yup, wish I looked as good in a bag as that Vitalorgnz. Hi, Mandyman: Another case of gender confusion for this Horse. Although I'm better on ya'll's names than I am with that site where you recognize gender by looking at eyes. This way I'm at least getting 3% right. The_bone: Do you believe that forks are evolved from spoons? Interesting question you ask on your site. Although I believe that should be forks is evolved. No, forks is not evolved. Forks is a primitive life form, and as such, is better left in his primordial stew. Mr. Hat, sir. Some of us are old enough to appreciate looking at the face of a man of experience. (and young enough to appreciate looking at the rear view on the others Ifjuly and t r a c y are cute! (and soz t r a c y ' s kitties Flashboy: Smoking can't be good for you. Neither is chewing on broken glass. Wahzat Daniel? Zemat: You climb? Dunno which is scarier, high places or low. Looks like we Monkeys got friends in both places. Arrrrrgh!!!!! Why did I write THAT? Now that stupid song is in my head. Get it out. GET IT OUT. GET IT OUT! I've got friends in low places *runs screaming
  • Yeah, I climb. But I don't do wall climbing. That's just too scary.
  • *puts down broken glass sandwich, swallows* mmmnnmnnm ... mmnm ... wazzat you say, gramma?
  • Ooo. How embarrassing. Apologies. Fixed now.
  • Am I the only one who though BBF has posted pics of Beck? You two could be brothers, I tell ya.
  • When I'm not out granting wishes, I'm hangin' with a buddy. Explain the getup, you say? I do endurance riding--long distance on horseback. The pink fairy pic was the first 25 mile ride my filly did--the Halloween ride at the Owyhee Canyonlands 5 day 250/3 day 75. Serious riding, but the last day of the event we get silly and ride in costume. Path, yes, you have good taste, that is an Arab. And no, dxlifer, it's about as far, in actual distance and good taste, from the show ring as you can get! The 2002 ride I was the endurance fairy, and 2003 yer Bluehorse was the Siberian Ice Maiden on the Pazyryk horse.
  • Oh yea, and now the filly doesn't want to go anywhere unless she's in costume!
  • So, whoze next? Come on shy guy, you can do it.
  • well, here's me. bonus bananas to anyone who can tell me where the photo was taken. (hint: in the us. famous spot. and i didn't have to do any editing to make it look like this, that really is all it says. on that side of the wall, anyway.)

  • Sooooz with evil red eyes. (From DCMeFiMeetUp04) My apologies for the size.
  • vitalorgnz - have you been able to reach it yet? I'm getting there via proxy just dandy.
  • this is me Kittens, t-r-a-c-y! No fair!
  • IgnorantSlut: no joy. Attempts from another ISP I use also fail at that router at ev1.net. Been like that since yesterday, at least.
  • Here and here are a couple of me playing around.
  • And for a real thrill here's one of my butt (SFW) That one was taken in Gargantua caves just incase middleclasstool was wondering.
  • This one of me is over two years old, pre-baby and during my stint as a US resident. I'm certainly not a spelunker, but there's a great little cave system about two hours from here that I've done a couple of times. I'd love to try something a bit more challenging, but most other holes/caves around here are wussy or require abseiling to get in, and I admit I have a slight thing about abseiling after an incident when I was 10.
  • Check the empty bottle in the background of trace's "don't go there" face shot. Coincidence?
  • I don't get it, Wolof. It's just a plain bottle with a torn white label? (And may I add, you bunch are all real good looking!)
  • Frogs, the bananas are prolly safe. Ummm, guessing you're at a stonecarvers trying out the extra-large size headstone? Soooze, you ook good!! Way to go, girl. Eeeeeek, Squeak! IMHO that's some pretty extreme and scary stuff you be doin'. Oh, cute butt. Mud or bat shit? Tracicle, No way would I go THERE, or THERE, or even THERE unless you say so.
  • Voila.
  • Good lord, homunculus, how do you type with those things? The bottle in the background of my photo is a Pump brand water bottle. Did I buy that in NZ or California? What you can't quite see is the green thing on top of the fridge, which is a giant tin of Milo (malted chocolate drink powder which I think is also specific to NZ and maybe Australia). There are some things you just can't live without when overseas. And there are some things your family thinks you can't live without. I hate Milo.
  • HUGE )))))))))))'s for BlueHorse for this awesome post! It is so great to put faces to names, and what's even better; along with your good looks, your intelligent, too (I know it for a fact). Personality and looks!
  • I know Milo. I lurrrve Milo (don't kill me, Monkeybashi!). And (slightly NSF Stomachs): My dad and I love canned or packet Milo, it tastes very different from making it at home; and just Milo. And a spoon. Mmmmm...
  • even well polished, I venture to say Thanks! A couple of swipes with a bowling ball shammy out of the shower and that skull of mine buffs out to a high gloss.
  • No, BlueHorse, that isn't really poo, just looks like it. It's actually just a bunch of Missouri clay. Bright orange and sticky, just like I like my women. Ruined my Reverend Horton Heat t-shirt. Good pic of squeak's butt. And for SideDish, I'm pulling some sites together for a thread. Found some fairly interesting sites, though how comment-worthy they may be will remain to be seen. More later.
  • Milo rocks! Haven't had it since I lived in NZ, although I was able to find it in a shop in Chinatown here in DC. Soooo good.
  • There are some things you just can't live without when overseas. When I was in NZ my mom used to send me packages of Ranch dressing mix and 5-alarm chili packets.
  • hey finnegan, I have that mogwai t-shirt too
  • Here's two for the price of one. This is Jim T and me. He gives me that look all the time.
  • caution live frogs, it's the Wright Brothers Memorial in Kitty Hawk, NC (scroll to the bottom to see the full quote containing "genius").
  • Oh, and here's me from last June in Times Square, NYC. thank you, Iggy.
  • Kittens, t-r-a-c-y! No fair! hey, if you've got 'em, may as well flaunt 'em :-D
  • Shawnj: Garth?
  • "Croydon was the cruelest of towns..."
  • I have some embarrasing pictures of a certain other monkey, but I'll only post them if she doesn't meet my demands... You, know who you are, plum girl. =)
  • News: Actor, in sudden attack of the shies, avoids showing photograph.
  • Oh yeah! Where the hell is Dizzy? Hmmmmm.......
  • OK you guys that haven't posted yet ... We KNOW you're out there lurking and PEEKING. 00 ~
  • Dizzy's an aaack-tor...?
  • Yeah, like wendell's a ryyy-tor. Or not. *ducks* GramMa's calling, monkey boys and girls! Let's see some faces here!
  • hey finnegan, I have that mogwai t-shirt too Bet you don't have the Mogwai cigarette lighter. I don't even smoke. That's how much of a lame fanboy I am.
  • Here I bee, at my loftiest.
  • Wow, i didnt even see this thread...oh well, i always miss the frays anyway. Hmmm, which one to use...well, This one is the most distinguished, being that it is currently the top google search for "sacre blue" [sic]. There are a couple of others i put in a different thread about who I am on one of these.
  • I'm too sexy for my shirt. So sexy it hurts.
  • Mickey - correct-a-mundo. here's the reward: ))))))) when i saw that one side of the monument just had the word "genius", in huge letters, just about head height, how the heck could i resist? and i love north carolina.
  • Am I boo or not? Many other works available, including the wife and inlaws returning from whence they came, aka "the ass shot".
  • kimberly: you guys look so in luuuuuv. congrats! mickey! cool pic! lkc, what the HELL??
  • lkc : I don't know what's going on there, but I'm interested in purchasing the DVD of the entire performance.
  • Well, I've been gone for a week vacationing at the Apostle Islands in Wisconsin, but here's a picture of the wife and me taken by my 3 year old nephew. He's quite the photographer. We actually used that photo for our engagement annoucement in the local newspaper. You all sure are an attractive bunch.
  • frogs, I have the exact same picture of my sister. It's definitely more appropriate in your case and more "ironic" in hers. and thanks for the bananas!
  • lkc is terrorizing Tokyo, from the looks of it.
  • boo_radley - outer banks? where at? mrs. frogs loves the outer banks. we try to take a trip there whenever we can. so far married almost 6 years, 4 trips to the white sandy hurricane-lashed beaches of north carolina. we like ocracoke the best, i think. especially on a weekday, when it's quieter. (although two nights spent in a fancy inn near currituck made us rethink our travel plans - next time we're spending more days at the inn, if we can afford it...) here's me in beaufort NC, off of the shackleford banks.
  • clf : on the barrier island of Cape Hatteras, right after hurricane season last october. By far the most relaxing weeks ever. We toured the lighthouses, ate an unreasonable amount of seafood and walked on the beaches at midnight. Fantastic times. Oh, and those sunrises are unaltered pictures. People think we altered them somehow, but that's how we took 'em.
  • Ta for the bananas, Darshon *double air kiss Cincin: Great pic--sign that kid up, he's got talent! I love the twinkle in your wise, Beeswacky *picks up glass, surveys room Now THIS is a party!
  • Dammit people, we've got to do something about that Dizzy of ours. Possibly he is too famous to risk exposure? If that's the case then it's okay, otherwise......
  • I also suggest we invite others, via the other posts, to check this thread out and join the party! Or would that piss people off???????
  • I don't really think we should be hounding people to post their pictures, you know.
  • Oh, please hound, hound away. Seventeen bananas to the first monkey who brings me the head(shot) of Dizzy!
  • Yeah, like wendell's a ryyy-tor. Alnedra, I'm wounded! Of course, I can claim to be a professional writer when 100% of my earned income since the first of this year has come from freelance writing. Of course, that was $1,300 for the first five months of this year...
  • I found a picture of f8xmulder...
  • That was pretty uncalled for, Wedge.
  • Lame, Wedge.
  • I sneer at you monkeys.
  • lkc is terrorizing Tokyo, from the looks of it. Yep, over here they call me "White Godzilla". I'm not kidding
  • Sorry, Wendell; that came out a little more snarky than I expected it to. *scuff floor with toe* What can I do to make up? Banana? Or hug?
  • Not funny, Wedge.
  • If you can't play well together, your friends will all have to go home now, and there won't be any more nice parties like this one.
  • <definitive response> It's okay, Wedge, I found your picture over at goatse.cx... </definitive response>
  • omg it wasn't *that* bad, you guys. it's not like f8x doesn't have a sense of humor. if he finds it unfunny -- which i seriously doubt -- then i'll sincerely apologize. /I'll be appearing at the Laughateria in Cleveland next week - two shows!
  • Since I came to the lands of MoFi on the recommendation of ever-awesome Sooooz. I should have realized, but, zounds, y'all are an attractive, quirky, intelligent-looking lot. *blushes. Anyway, here's an action shot of me in one-on-one combat in the Kingdom of Loathing. Okay, it's either that or Germany.
  • An error has occurred. You do not appear to be the owner of this album. Make sure you are logged in.
  • [that was directed to BearGuy, btw]
  • @#$%! What an obnoxious site. Sorry 'bout that. Okay, I'll see if I can put it up elsewhere.
  • You monkeys are awesome! Your servant sir. *Gives grateful bow. Okay, take two. This is a shot of me in fearsome one-on-one aka one-sided combat in the Kingdom of Loathing...or perhaps Germany.
  • Heh, BearGuy! You sure got a good grip on that bald fucker with glasses!
  • Wait ... oh. Shit :(
  • who let him out again??
  • We can't take him ANYWHERE!
  • kid - since you're here, got any pics of yourself?
  • No. But I'll work on it, and get back to you soon - I wouldn't want you to think that I'm just a smartarse* who's not willing to put my own head above the parapet (so to speak). And no offence to BearGuy, BTW - I'm just bein' silly. Thems is all good photos! *obviously, I am a smartarse, but you know what I mean.
  • Ah, no worries. I get mistaken for Playmobil figures all the time. That and Muppets. *winks
  • And now, by special request: The tall one's me.
  • wow. droolworthymonkeys. See what happens when I go to chicago for a week?
  • Me.
  • Dizzy: That got net nannied at work. Now I'm scared.
  • Could it be the "queer" in "www.albequeerque.com"? One place I worked blocked what's new, pussycat and laputan logic for pussy and puta, respectively.
  • Do they all block this, too?
  • I'm Edgy. Coool.
  • PF, I bet that's it. Silly, silly company that I work for.
  • Kimberly: I think it was the sultry "come hither" look in his eyes, the full, pouting lips, and the flaring, passionate nostrils. When you get home, I suggest you lock the door and pull the curtains before linking to his pic. ;)
  • (Your mouth to ABC/NBC/CBS/HBO/'s ears, my darling friend!)
  • Alright monkeys heres genial with his SO
  • Genial...page is not available. You might want to recheck the link.
  • bah, Geocities is funky about linking to pictures. I've put it on my own webspace here.
  • You guys look so happy!
  • And, really genial.

  • *grabs surliboi by ear I'm gonna smack that smirk right offa yer face, boi! Path! Anymore of that and you'll be pickin' a willow switch! *mutters Dang youngen's ain't got no manners, no how.
  • Hey, hey, hey! I hope you beat up on all the pee people too...
  • BlueHorse - don't forget that I'm waaay older than you, so I'll do the switching.
  • HAS EVERYONE LOST THEIR MINDS TODAY?
  • lost mine a long time ago...
  • *hunkers down in the trenches, clinging on to crash helmet*
  • Why the helmet? Afraid Zombie Reagan will come for your brainnnnnssss?
  • I think she's afraid Bizarro Dizzy will...
  • HAS EVERYONE LOST THEIR MINDS TODAY? Projection. And your caps lock key is broken.
  • Aha. Cannot link to deleted post. V. prudent. *salutes Monkeybashi, as ever*
  • Dearest, Kindest, Most Generous Wolof--- with friends like you, who needs Mefi? If I have in any way offended you, PLEASE tell me.
  • Diz, take a break, come back tomorrow, yeah?
  • And learn to use a tag or two. ALL CAPS IS CONSIDERED TO BE SHOUTING, AND I AM FUCKING SICK OF IT.
  • PLEASE FUCKING ADVISE. YOU HAVE HAD A BIG DAY OUT.
  • Leave it out, Wolof.
  • OK, sorry. But fed up.
  • *rubs Wolof back, coos soothingly*
  • Thanks, Mr PF.
  • Much love, Wollie.
  • *feels a bit embarrassed in front of all the others*
  • What with PF being so horny at the moment.
  • ehm. well. ehm. Ours is a philos, emoige dokei. though you know, I'm openminded
  • Well, everyone seems to have gone, so perhaps it's safe to post these now. Taken on consecutive trips to the Philharmonic and Opera in Central Park. The bottom one is with the lovely gfriend Amy who would/will be mortified if/when she finds out I posted that picture. Not shown: many many empty bottles of wine.
  • Huh. So you're *not* me? Weird.
  • Wolof; Why? These recent events have absolutely nothing to do with you. So please tell me how I've given you offense? This is not sarcasm. This is bewilderment. Please respond!
  • Nice, cs1!
  • Somebody explain to me what Dizzy did. I hate missing breakdowns, flameouts, and suchlike.
  • Wasn't just Dizzy. /bignoseinotherpeople'sbusiness
  • Oh, you mean the pee posts? Bo-o-ring. I thought there was poo-flinging and bloodshed and despairing tears. Oh well.
  • PF - I think you're right to link it (without comment.)
  • No, languagehat, the pee posts were just innocent bystanders. If you'll scroll down in PF's links, you'll find exchages that I don't really understand. All the participants are righteous folk, but the result was startling and indescribable.
  • On second thought, maybe you did address the cookooie-ness (spelling optional) of those threads. It's just that the aguments seemed to get out of hand so quickly. and go on and on for reasons I, at least couldn't fathom. And, there were blood and guts, and meltdowns, and hurt feelings, and ... It didn't quite come up to the MeFi guy who offered to cut his hand off, but for us tender monkeys it was disturbing.
  • path, I got really upset by it. Yesterday was a double-shift day, thank goodness, so I wasn't sitting by the computer, but I spent a lot of time fretting and worrying, and not thinking about my ladylove.
  • Yeah, I just glanced at the second link, but a kind monkey e-mailed me and explained all, so I read the whole thing with guilty enjoyment. Glad I wasn't there... Now, play nice, all of you! What do you think this is, MetaFilter?
  • Thanks, Certainsome1, for bringing the thread back on track. I digs dem dark glasses. You and your SO are a striking pair. Yes, Path, it was disturbing. And the sad fact is that a day of joyous pee-flinging went bad. We really need to press on. GramMa sez: You boys, TAKE IT OUTSIDE. Email each other or kiss and make up. Quit flinging stinky poo all over the posts. This perticklur post was "I show you mine, if you show me yours", preferably showing pictures of faces
  • Well, they were only one letter out.
  • Heh!
  • Ewwwww...
  • The were flinging Poe? The singer or the writer?
  • What singer?
  • Edgar Allen Poo.
  • Wow, nice one, Cap!
  • As threatened, the mysterious umeboshi...
  • threatened What, here?
  • umeboshi-san has lovely eyes, ne? ...and surlyboi-san has lovely...everything /fangirl
  • I just want to tell you both good luck, we're all counting on you.
  • put your hands on your hips!
  • Roger, Roger.
  • This whole thread has gotten far too silly. Why don't you do something about teeth? I thought this whole programme was about teeth anyway. Go on, do something about teeth!
  • Okily dokily neighborinos. Unphotogenic shinything on the left. Bonus pic: the monster and me.
  • shinything shines!
  • I can be found here. As a special bonus, you get to find out how old I am.
  • i was going to say something vaguely creepy about shinything being kinda hot (for a 30-something year old) until i read something about her having a husband. now, i'm all like, bullshit. fuck that. you know?
  • me and me
  • Unphotogenic Pish and tosh. Your monster is a tortie beauty.
  • Y'all are making an old married woman blush. :)
  • Hotties on my left side, hotties on my right side...
  • I reaffirm my earlier statement, to wit: Monkeyfilter: Hot Chicks and Hair Club for Men "Before" Photos.
  • MonkeyFilter: we just want to tell you good luck, and that we're all counting on you.
  • (because it hadn't been said yet in this thread)
  • Hair Club for Men "Before" Photos Check out the Bald R Us Hall of Fame. Patrick Stewart is a hottie. Yul Brynner was too. You monkeys are a good-looking bunch of folks. And GramMa Bluehorse's fairy godmother pic is THE BEST.
  • what? oh! yes.
  • My my my.
  • thanks surlyboi! i haven't even been around the monkey to know i was being threatened!! by the way, do you have more embarrassing photos of me? hehe. okay. more mystery and a chance to use my super limited html. scary stuff.
  • This is really close to me. I don't have any real pictures that I can post. stupid villian code Thanks to IgnorantSlut for the space. It feels so weird calling someone I don't know that.
  • Mein gott. Umeboshi is hot.
  • That pic doesn't do her justice. She's hotter than that. Plus she's one of the coolest people I know.
  • this is me in front of my garden last summer. /but i've changed my look since then.
  • aw, gee. only hot (and sweaty) cause it's 90 degrees and the a/c doesn't reach the living room.
  • Dx: You're just like I imagined you! (What's your new look like?) Pez: Gonna slap you upside the head! Don't gimme that no real picture excuse. WallyWorld will give you a disk developed from a cheap throwaway camera if you don't have a digital. We want a pic. Get thee down to the precinct and get that one with the numbers across your chest if you need to. *wipes tear from eye Thank you fellow Monkeys, for your generous response to this post. On a bad day, I can call up all your pictures and know that there are good simians out in the world. I loves ya all. (Blows banana-flavored kiss to Dizzy)
  • mom, such prescience! much shorter hair and a few more pounds gone.
  • Rats! My link is broken. Sorry about that, try this.
  • Wow! For some reason, I had dxlifer pegged as some kind of enormous, musclebound gangsta throwing gang signs whilst using someone else's face to type messages on the prison keyboard. I have absolutely no idea why.
  • BBF, you are not alone.
  • I read dxlifer as "the ex-lifer", maybe that's why?
  • dmx-lifer, fo-real! I too, read "ex-lifer" the first time. I though you were some kind of the punisher imitator.
  • dxlifer is extremely attractive and I want to have an affair. Cali is gorgeous and I want to kiss her (she has a sexy nose and I love her hair). Umeboshi has beautiful bone structure, skin tone, & I want to have her babies. Or something. GOD DAMN I LOVE YOU ALL!!! /falls to floor in paroxysm of emotion P.S. One should not judge a book by its cover. Whatever one's physical appearance, personality is all that matters, and if you have intelligence (as you all do), humour (as most of you do) and compassion (as I'm pretty sure you all do) then that's what makes you beautiful. And then there's the opportunity to have hot, all-night, sweaty monkeysex. That's great too. Message ends.
  • Whatever one's physical appearance, personality is all that matters, and if you have intelligence (as you all do), humour (as most of you do) and compassion (as I'm pretty sure you all do) then that's what makes you beautiful. Shit, I miss out on all the requirements...
  • I'm still impressed by Cali's sneer. She is a natural.
  • Whatever one's physical appearance, personality is all that matters, and if you have intelligence (as you all do), humour (as most of you do) and compassion (as I'm pretty sure you all do) then that's what makes you beautiful. But if the other person's hot, the monkeysex is that much cooler. =)
  • some kind of enormous, musclebound gangsta good heavens! i'm a little ole middle-aged lady! dx = diagnosis.....ask any doctor lifer = well, i wanted to just use life, but identity requirements often needed more letters, so it seemed natural to use lifer, since i know so many. i chose life as my diagnosis for life. /i think all those comments just cured my menopause.
  • And yes, Ume, dear. I have Many embarassing pics of you and some really flattering ones. Though I doubt I'd use the flattering ones as it may drive Nostril over the edge...
  • ...and not only the Divine Dame...
  • DMXlifer Why yes, I have had one too many martinis...
  • Bravo!
  • HEY! i have a denim jacket that looks like that. but i'd never wear those chains. take it easy, now. /must remember to not let surlyboi near my pics in future.
  • Remember, what goes around, Surlyboi .... heh, heh Dx: You gotta admit, he's fast on the draw. *always knew that crap photoshop program would be useful for something.
  • Perfect, Bluehorse. The hat is of museum quality.
  • /will remember to send pics to bluehorse for quick editing.
  • *looks left* *looks right* Psst! GramMa! You think you could put photoshop surlyboi on uh... The Rock? It's for the Fan Club. Yeah. *runs away*
  • *gigglyfit*
  • Surlyboi was on The Rock? hmm..now i'm confused? Is surlyboi a wrestler? *feigns innocence
  • Yeah, I was on the rock
  • oh that rock... i thought u meant this rock. I'd have asked to trade places with you coz you see...I'd like to be on THAT rock!
  • OK, shutup now. You're being far too silly.
  • Quite! Oh dear, the penguin's exploded . .
  • rxr and daughter
  • Aw! Cutey!
  • Heh. I got net nannied for both of rxr's pictures.
  • Extreme cuteness is now not safe for work, Kinberly.
  • er, Kimberly, obviously.
  • RXR: Good heavens yes, you should have warned us! Caution! Extreme cuteness ahead. Potential for smiles exist.
  • arrrrrrgh! s-v agreement existS doh! Ringlesh be my nativ tung
  • Well, Path, Dxlifer, Sidedish, what do you think? I just want to pinch his cheeks and feed him sweet pickles!
  • I have the same shirt, Indica. Burn it.
  • Yea, wendell, I'd like to, however it was a gift from my dad (he had given it to me that day) and I was expected to wear it. Picture is at the aquarium in Newport Beach, OR., where my folks had just bought a 'summer' home because it's too hot in the summer in California (La Quinta at PGA West, 120+ even at night!!).
  • Indica, Bananas to you, and welcome. I have no problem with the shirt, but the stripes coupled with other suggestive elements in this picture raise certain unholy questions in my mind. Please answer posthaste and forthwith: Is the bird in the photo a totem, icon, or some other evil symbolic element? What are you cradling in your arms and getting ready to drop over the railing into the shark tank? Do (or did) the small girls pictured have a small sibling? Are the phone poles in Newport Beach really two feet tall? Are you now, or have you ever been affliated with pirates?
  • No, just lowly water fowl. Actually, nothing. Arms crossed, half leaning over. Girl to my immediate right is my daughter, yes, she has a younger brother, who was with mom in another area of the park, safe and sound! No, but you can't pump your own gas, it's illegal. No, but my kids wish that I was.
  • Great photo of MFPB 2 21 on his wiki page. Makes him look like a somewhat decadent Edwardian dandy. Muffpub, I think you should take every opportunity to wear an ascot.
  • wow! muffy, you look great! Get your butt over to Jolly Ole England and get knighted by the Queen! (^_^)
  • Me and a more recent me.
  • dmn--we are forbidden from viewing you.
  • Well, I wasn't, Darshon.
  • Well, I'm not forbidden. Nice photos! What a lot o' dead links on this page, though!
  • This thread's almost a year old, tick. Threads, like socks, may evidently wear out.
  • Oh my aching head! has anyone found my missing thread? I'm not the only one who thinks it stinks to find broken links!
  • Petebest! There you are. We missed you. Are you back from vacation?
  • Hm, weird. Wonder why I can't view the pics.
  • This thread's almost a year old So does that mean that monkeys should send new pics in? When will the madness end!?
  • Everything is free to add the panels. Jibberished through the #5687 link, the original was Everyone is free to add pictures.
  • Adorable, Zanshin!!
  • great pic zanshin!
  • Thanks, I'm quite proud of that picture -- especially my little monkey. I think this thread should be kept alive -- keep the monkey-shots coming!
  • People who liked this thread also liked: MoFi Census Who are we? A/S/L There are some similar others out there in the archives. You can reactivate these on the side bar, or any others you find in the archives, by adding a comment. They served the purpose of community building in the past. I noticed, when they were more common, that the knowledge of whom we were talking to helped diffuse some trolling/flaming tendencies that showed up. I don't think we're close to large scale flaming or trolling now, but get to know your neighbors! Some will loan you tools, others will help you fix a problem, some will bring over a casserole dish, and some will throw a party, or tell a joke, or link to kittens.
  • Great photo, Zanshin! Great point, path - who's WhipperSnipper is this?
  • Zanshin, you should be proud of that monkey. Mrs. Tool and I should be so lucky to have one so beautiful when we start trying in about a year.
  • That's "whippersnapper", young lady! Realizing that I had no idea what the term really meant, I did a little checking. Here's a possible etymology.
  • Zanshin: what a great monkey! Give that kid a 'nanar for cute.
  • A pair of handsome apes indeed, Zanshin!
  • Oh my god, the cuteness is killing me! *melts*
