It's a Mumintroll :razz:

Yeah, Mumindalen is such a cool show! :biggrin:

Yep!That's me! :smile: the photo with the tie was taken exactly one year ago, at a friend's marriage; i look pissed off coz there was no Jack Daniels in the c**ktail, i remember; i had to drink red label.. the little pic was taken by my webcam a few months a go.

Not really on-topic, but this one always puts a smile on my face:

Wow this topic isn't dead (and neither am I). I havn't been to the pit in quite a while, was offline (now 56k aka crap, die in your seat before the download is compleate speed)

I still have more edited pictures to post, I'll have to post them when I remember how to log onto my snarkpit space...

I'd been wondering what happened to you. I don't wan to imagine the pain of reverting to a dial-up after being on DSL for a few years!

Any more cool artwork to show us Grim? The last stuff was excellent, hope you're still plugging away, you've serious talent.

Thanks A_S, I've been hard at work on some new stuff. I did move recently so that slowed me down some. I bought a copy of painter 8 and have been trying to get into the advanced features, it a pretty awesome program. That and I upgraded to photoshop CS.

I should be back on a DSL speed connection in a few weeks, I'll post some stuff then.

I have been having some computer trouble also, maybe you guys can help me out, I'll post it in its own thread though.

How do I upload pics? (I have no homepage...)

Get some free webspace at geocities, or place them in an MSN group.

[CAPTION EDITED]

....and i suppose the pinhead with the pistol is......you?....or is it some other dumb s**t trying to be cool with a gun thats bigger than he is....f**kin kids these days man.....wtf is wrong with you dumb s**ts??

Doc Brass...

Dude, its just a joke picture, cool it. It's called an AIRSOFT gun and its completely non-lethal, I'm not dumb enough to "play" with real ones. I was not trying to be cool, it was more of an inside joke between a few friends, so stop overreacting.

I'm tired of old people thinking "f**kin kids" are "dumb sh**ts" and ignorant. Just because you are twice my age doesn't mean you are any more mature.

then what is the point of taking a pic like that then??...bah....

Doc Brass....

The point? I don't know. How about for a good laugh? It was taken mocking the same type of kids you mentioned. But what you have to understand is that not all kids are like that. You shouldn't flip out and jump to conclusions.

then you should qualify yer post with a caption dude....and you havent seen me f**kin flip out ....yet. as a parent, i really resent the audacity it takes to pull a "joke" like that out....grow the f**k up man.....and remember, theres kids around here all the time....be an example eh?

Doc Brass...

I don't uderstand why you are making a bi deal out of a picture of me holding a fake gun on a website based around games where there are not only guns, but guns against real people online. I'm in no way at all saying computer and video games are a bad influence, but neither is a picture of me with an airsoft pistol.

Skel dude, I don't mind the picture, but the caption you associated it with made it beyond tasteless.

My apologies, I'll edit it off. It was a joke between me and Cass. Thank you, Tracer, for telling me in a respectful way. If there's anything that you should know, Brass, it's thatswearing at people and flaming them doesn't make matters any better.

man, i am glad i missed this one... most times, what pisses doc off, doesn't do me any good either.. guess i am old too.

thanx for solving it TB

i would suggest to the young tho, do NOT confuse "over reaction" to "immaturity" because you really don't know what will trigger an adults defense mechanism, and most adults have no good mental images of children with guns.

doc might have over reacted, but seldom is he immature, and frankly, i support cussing people out, doesn't win me any friends sometimes, but i guarantee when i am standing there, it gets results :wink:

/ 2 cents

I always thought Airsoft guns were too realistic for their own good, well not up close, but, in general.

They're perfect for film making and paintball though, rather cheap too.

I'm in no way at all saying computer and video games are a bad influence, but neither is a picture of me with an airsoft pistol.

Phhhrt, it's bad parenting. People want to blame someone else for their problems and don't want to accept the fact that most of the ills of society come from having s**theads for parents.

The problem with blaming parents for people being assholes/s**theads/whatever vulgarity you prefer, is that it offers no recognizable solution. I mean, why are the parents terrible at parenting? Perhaps they had bad parents. And on and on. At least when guns or video games are blamed, people feel like they can enact legislation to do something about the problem.

being a parent, i can say that it is proportionately the parents fault, but not completely.

after the age of responsibility, its the child's fault what he or she does with their lives.

i realize that the age of responsibility varies from person to person, but unless you are retarded, it should occur on or around your tenth birthday.

now i am not saying that you should vote or anything stupid, and only a true pinhead would read my words as such, but at age ten, a child should have all they need to know about right, and wrong, and be able to differentiate between the two, and at that point be responsible for their own actions.

i mean, if they don't know its wrong to shoplift by 10, then something went seriously wrong in the informative years... same holds true with guns, if a parent hasn't instilled the concept of actions=consequences then something really needs addressed.

i know i am babbling, but i also know that there are just to many variables to decide what is right, and what needs enacted to correct the wrongs.

my son's know guns can kill, i retain no responsibility for their actions, if they kill someone, its their doing and they will suffer for it, either (if they are caught) prison, or (if they are not) the mental anguish.

blaming parents, can be nothing more than the words of someone who hasn't been one yet... blaming video games, or guns themselves, is plain stupid, and i will tell anyone who says differently that they are stupid as well.

what kids today need to see, is "CONSEQUENCES" if you do a wrong, you will, without a doubt, be punished to the extent the law allows.. IE the kid who got caned for the graffiti, i think it was... he was rich, spoiled AND AMERICAN, and thought he could just waltz away, as if he were here.. he was wrong, and i support the government who beat the s**t out of him, he will remember and tremble at the sight of a graffiti picture from now on..

anyways, thats my 2 cents.

Hmm. Less parenting discussion, more picture posting. :wink: The first 3 are formatted for my site and are smaller, but I have full-resolution images of all available somewhere if you really care. :razz:



Me on my 20th birthday this last June. Pondering something or other.



My friend took this on the Nebraska Band Alamo Bowl trip in late December. This was the last day we were there, and I was being all weird and acting tired. Thunked down on the bed and my friend goes "Wait! Stay there!" and freaked out about the lighting on my face and took a picture.



Same friend took this one. He had just gotten a new digital camera and was obsessed with the slow shutter speed feature. Here is me manhandling my cymbals before a rehearsal in the Alamodome.

And, of course...



My wonderful fiancee. :smile: These are about 2 1/2 years old now, but save for a slightly different hair color the first one in particular is still spot-on. :smile:

A more recent photo, taken the day before you met:



Only joking :biggrin: Probably wrong for a random internet weirdo you've never met to say this, but seems like you've done well for yourself sir :smile:

Random question, KFS- but when was that picture at the AlamoDome take?

That would have been December 28th. We had one rehearsal in there prior to the game, which was on the 29th. The picture of me with the weird lighting is from the 29th in our break between the morning's rehearsal and the game that night.

Holy crap- that's really weird. The reason I asked was that my family and I were down in San Antonio for vacation then.

damn andrew, shes putting some weight on ya.....shes a good cook?.... ...and shes a cutie too.... :wink:

seriously tho.....good luck, marriage aint easy ....name yer first kid Brasso eh?... :heee:

i am trying hard so bare with me.. i travel thos ol' USA for a living so remember that..

why would anyone waste a vacation in San Antonio?

i realize if the USA were a human body, that Iowa would be the poop chute, but San Antonio?

jeeze bud, there are so many other options.. Montana,Wyoming,Utah,Colorado,Arizona, all western states too, but much nicer..

anyways.. my condolences for getting the worse vacation location available... i hope you at least saw the Alamo..

I go there every other summer, what's wrong with it? :razz:

Here's a more recent photo of me, still without my lovely facial scarring at Glastonbury Festival 2003 :biggrin: The dodgy eyebrow was a moment of beer fuelled madness, which made me look like i'd been caught on a fish hook.

you look swedish tbh

San Antonio is actually a really beautiful city... The Riverwalk is simply amazing- I've never really seen a place/thing like it. Most of the days consisted of us walking around the city/visiting local towns/missions/ walking to Mexico etc. And the nights were mainly my brother and I wondering around downtown looking for things to do. It was actually pretty cool.

Oh, and Iowa totally owns. My "permanent" home is in Illinois, and let me tell you- it's soooo much worse than Iowa ('cept for good old Chicago.)

if san antone is your cup of tea, you are really in for something special whan you branch out..

i was born in texas, i hate the state, so i reckon... i am biased.

i highly suggest, you pick another locale next time at the very least.. so many places, to waste every year on san antone.

and chicago... eeewww yucky
