For some reason that I suppose can only relate to black magic, TV's Frink has a different avatar when I check this forum on my phone than when I'm on a computer. On my computer he is Ric with lasers behind him. On my phone he's the soup nazi from Seinfeld. I don't understand this sorcery, and I won't have it.
All I can do is check posts on my phone anyway, it won't ever let me post.
Isn't it obvious? Your computer has the ability to log into a parallel universe where Frink never changed his avatar.

Poppycock.

Anyway emptying cache did work, but I wonder why this happened. When anybody else changes their avatars it changes for me, but not Frink. So I'm still not ruling out black magic.

People being appalled at Spaced Ranger wanting to restore CGI melons...
Also, I have to get this out of my system: Frink is a knee-jerk reacting fuddy-duddy.

You know what, LEONARDO, you need to leave. We could put up with a lot, but, we have our limits, you know?
*throws Leonardo out the door*
We'll be fine, you just have to go.
I couldn't resist :P

I'm not appalled, I just think it's ridiculous. But I do hope you enjoy the boobs.

I'm not disappointed, I'm appalled. For fuck's sake, they look more like painted ski balls than boobs.

Pixar should just do some porn. That way no one will be happy.

I find it immensely satisfying to know that Lorenzo Music did the voice for Garfield in the cartoon as well as Peter Venkman in The Real Ghostbusters, while Bill Murray played Garfield and Peter Venkman in the live action versions of both characters.

Odds are they probably have done naughty things that will never be seen by the public. Animation is a stressful job, and animators do things to blow off steam that would seem strange to the outside world.
I've seen things from old cartoons that were most definitely not fan art.

I don't get this idea (which I've heard before). I have a stressful job, and I've never wanted to [REDACTED] a [REDACTED] or a [SUPER REDACTED] just to blow off steam.

But you don't have to draw the same characters over and over all day long for years either. ;)
I didn't say I understood it, but I've seen evidence of it. It's not too far removed from all the dirty jokes hidden in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, before Disney caught on, and erased them all.
It's probably on the same level as office humor. My father and his co workers used to circulate dirty jokes and cartoons in the era of xerox machines and faxes. It would be very un-PC today of course.
My classmates back in college at the tv studio pulled all manner of questionable jokes, some of which made it to air.

Nothing quite that blatant. Some fellow named Jack Mehoff was often listed as a production assistant though. The teacher was pretty pissed when they finally noticed it, after someone else pointed it out to them.
Someone else found a few seconds of a porno in a box of donated broadcast tapes, and got their laughs heavily pixilating the image, and using it for a backdrop on a couple projects. That this person reminded me of a character in Videodrome just added to the surreal nature of my college days.

hah! the fake name always cracks me up.
here's o&a reviewing an audio clip from a local tv station, reporters read a list of "birthdays". this is the most fake names I've heard in a row.

I'm not sure where to post this, as it's not exactly bitchy so it doesn't go in that thread, and it isn't exactly emotional support so it doesn't go in that thread, and it doesn't warrant it's own topic, so I guess this thread's the winner.
So I've been trying to lose a bit of weight lately. Just a little, I'm still considered a healthy weight and you wouldn't think of me as overweight by seeing me, I guess just call it nostalgia and wanting to look like I did in high school even though the way I look now is still fine.
(off-story that's kind of important to this. My 3rd and 4th years of high school I developed a little anorexia problem. I'm over 6 feet tall and I ended up weighing 125 lbs, and I'm built kinda stocky with broad shoulders so it was very visually too skinny and I looked like a ghost with no skin color whatsoever. Anyway, when I finally got over that I bulked up to about 220 pounds, which is kindof alot but I'm quite tall and largely built so it still wasn't really that bad, then for a while I'm down to around 200 and that was okay. I'd like to get to 170, that seems like a good middle ground for me. For the way I'm built 200 is honestly probably good, and it may be my anorexic tendencies insisting I need to lose 30 more. Maybe not though. My most healthy weight in high school was 160, so 10 pounds over that seems good enough. Anyway I thought that might factor into the story a bit.)
Anyway, like I said I'm trying to lose just a bit of weight. I'm succeeding. I mean I'm really succeeding. At first it started healthy. I'd lose a couple pounds a week and I felt great and it was good. I still feel pretty good actually, but now the weight feels like it's coming off too fast. I've been literally losing 1 to 2 pounds a DAY. Every day I weigh myself and I weigh a pound or 2 less than the day before. I weight 8 pounds less than I did just a week ago. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled to be approaching my goal so fast, but I'm nervous because this just seems to be too fast. I mean I live an active life and I push myself, but I'm worried that something might be wrong to be causing me to lose pounds every day. But maybe I'm just being paranoid. Anyone have any experience with this and would like to chime in? Ender perhaps? (due to medical training not because I think you're fat :P)

I'd like to help, but I'm not one to go to when it comes to weight, unfortunately. I, too, flirted with anorexia back in high school, though (Also bulimia to some extent, though I never was good at making myself throw up, so I never when far in that direction), so I know what a bitch that can be.

I remember years ago I was at my heaviest, that would be probably about 205 pounds, it shows in photos, my face was really chubby. I didn't even drink at the time. Not that I do now, but it was later that I developed a taste for alcohol.
So my friends told me I had to drink more water and eat a little better, and as soon as I started taking it seriously I was losing weight at about that rate.
So it could just be water weight you're losing fast, but don't take my word for it.
I ought to be riding my bike every day but I'm the laziest person on earth.
For the record I'm 5' 6", currently 183 pounds.

I don't think I could be losing water weight now. 205 is different for me than it is for you because I'm over 6 feet tall. Maybe 6 2 but I'm not sure anymore I can't remember. Maybe the first 20 pounds I've lose could be considered water weight but I don't think so anymore. Maybe so though. I think you posted a video of yourself once though and I didn't think you looked overweight.
