Just WHY is the icon a skull? I really don't know and the lack of an explanation has been bugging me for a while.

How do you get an icon in your address bar for your site? I've been wondering how to do that, it seems nifty as fuck.

This is what I always assumed :o

It's like asking why SomethingAwful's icon is a grenade

That used to be Mockery's avatar on the olld board. It was kinda how he represented himself on the site before he used to feature himself in the peices. Like on the staff page and stuff.

I was always sad that my skull x-ray didn't have that much contrast. It looks fuzzy and shitty. It also renders visible my freakishly large sinuses, which I'm told give me superhuman powers. People see me in the street and they're like "DAMN, your eyes are really far back in your head! You must have brains galore!" and I'm just like, "no, according to the x-ray it's all just air."


(Edit: God dammit, that image wasn't so huge before. An enemy has enlarged my x-rays.)

I also have an MRI of my brain as my wallpaper.

Terra, seriously.

Your, You're

Your = possessive pronoun: Your shoes are untied.

You're = contraction for you are: You're walking around with your shoes untied. (Pronouns have apostrophes only when two words are being shortened into one.)

What are you, in your 20s? Time to learn the difference.

Ah, I see!

YOU'RE correct Milhouse. I can always count on you.

I've learned that being made fun of for being smarter than average isn't a big deal, so you're out of luck.

I hope you have a perfectly average life where you don't excel at anything that sets you apart from the rest of society. I would wish you better, but I don't think you really want that.

There's being smarter than average, and being pretentious.

One of these is not like the other.

Yeah, but isn't Terra college-educated? I thought she made a reference to majoring in engineering once.

It kinda sucks having to explain why "you're" correct. I think this is the second time you've called me on something and you had to turn around and justify it. :(

But again, Milhouse is correct. I've been handed my ass by the contraction police.

Milhouse how old do you think I am ( besides old enough to know better am i right guys)?
