You are totally anywhere from 19 to 89 years old.

I used to do that on a comic forum I used to frequent.

I also associated a certain picture with a certain person, so when as a joke a few people changed their avatar to match a mod, I got very confused as to why this mod was everywhere for like a day (don't read the usernames in other words)

I think it just means your imagination is working (which is a good thing)
that guy squilliam, i think thats his name, i always imagine its his picture talking lol

I am convinced squilliam is that guy too...

Also, about people recognising people by avatars, BHR-3 had leo-j's av, and started a thread about how he had got an Xbox and sold his PS3, I was truly shocked

I don't think of appearances, but I do tend to judge a persons character by their av sometimes. For instance.

The Anime Avatar: Finding normal cartoons to be not nerdy enough, you've wrapped yourself in cartoons of a country whose language you don't speak. There is probably a strange odor coming from your basement room.

"Bad Ass" dude with a gun: You think that Bad Ass dudes with big guns are tough and therefore Cool. Your basement room might not smell, but no one will ever know, because no one wants to hang out with that skinny little geek who is always making the angry face and talking about how tough he is.

The Internet Meme Av: You have become so obsessed with the internet and so displaced from the real world that you no longer understand that "Fail", "For the horde" babies and ORLY owls are not actually funny. You're posting here because the internet has taken precedence over the real world for you. There may not be an odor coming from your basement room yet, which is good, because when there is... It's probably because you died in your chair in front of your computer and no one thought to come down and check on you.

This may be an unfair way of looking at things, but that's just kind of the vibe I get when I see those avs.

D21Lewis is totally Zapp Brannigan to me.

I hope so.

yeah, I do it and it annoys me when people change their avatar because they become a whole new person.

20 on Sat.

I base my current opinion of someone largely on the impression I get from their profile pic... By the way, what does mine say about me?
