My avatar is of a couple of youths, one of whom has place his fingers where they dont belong, and are seemingly stuck.

If this had happened in your neighborhood park, and you were watching, you would have a good chuckle. You would NOT go and ask the youth to please refrain from doing so, so please dont ask the same from me.

Get over it.

I will remove it , but not for the sake of a bunch of Anal People, but for Titus and the moderators.

Jeeez,
I am the one who complained about your avatar.

Every time I see it I am reminded of a family issue that involves a brother of mine and our father.

Maybe to you it is clear what those two kids are doing, but to me it is not clear.

Further to this…just because it is two kids makes this picture okay? Clearly if it were an adult and a kid this would constitute child porn. I really don’t see a difference. The avatar involves two human beings, period.

I’m still pretty new to this board, and it is actually the first internet forum I have ever participated in, but it has quickly become apparent to me that this method of communicating with other people seems to bring out a lack of compassion and regard for those other people.
We are sitting in front of machines rather than having these people in front of us face to face. I think this desensitizes us and causes us to be a little bolder in what we say and express, than we normally would. I ask you, Fudge, would you prominently display that picture on a wall in your home for your guests to see? I tend to think not. So why is it appropriate here? Personally, I don’t think it is.

I’m sorry you disagree with me.

BTW, thanx for your response re: my question about the R/O TDS meter reading thing.
