The Illusion Crushing Thread.

We all have ideas of what other PTR members look like. For me those ideas depend on people's avatar, so ATS looks like a grumpy but wise old Pop to me, SiMA like a smartass smirking Manu, and SinCitySpur like a sex crazed Quagmire. Maybe you all have your own ideas, thinking all the girls are hot, or all the guys handsome.
Well, it's time to destroy some illusions. Let's put some pics of what we really look like and don't worry, no matter how we look on the outside, we're all ugly on the inside:

Alright, so I’ll start.
Here’s your truly, Hipuks, or more accurately, Gonzalo.
My half face looks awesome, if my whole face looked as good, I would have had a ton of chicks before I met my girl who I’m totally loyal to.
This is my pathetic attempt at a playoff beard last year. I had known my girl for about a month when I took this pic and sent it to her. I think it really captures my essence.

I have to say, Hipuks, you look exactly like I imagined you would. I used to play basketball at work (during our lunch hour) with a guy from Argentina who could have been your twin brother.
Consider this illusion not crushed at all. Solidified, even.

ok – i cant view the SiMA photos. perhaps i should not be surprised by this. is it just me, or have they vanished? is it:
a) as suspected, SiMA is some kind of vampire that cannot be properly photoged
b) he is wanted by authorities in several states and had to pull the photos
c) in the witness protection program

Actually, I cleaned up my photobucket account and realized that when you pull photos, it pulls them off any web links as well. Duh. You didn’t miss anything, they were all just posted to mock surfergirl anyway.
But yes, I’m also a vampire.

Btw, in my picture, the scar over my left eye is my bonfire scar. I got it on bonfire night. Running down the hall in the dorm, my roommate pushed me as I was turning into a room and split my noggin wide open just above the eye. Good times.

to tell you the truth, if I didn’t need it as a backup, you could have it

that pic was from our field work expedition to 80° North (latitude) and the rifle was for protection against polar bears (that’s no joke!!! the Norwegian Authorities take it very seriously if they think we have done something to those endangered species)

Completely badass. How often did you guys have problems with polar bears? I gotta hear about this….
by SgtinManusArmy on Jan 26, 2009 4:25 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
In April, there is still some sea ice so the Polar Bears are still hanging out on the sea to catch seals but as it winds down to May, that when one has got to be careful coz the polar bears start moving onto land and in looking for food could stray on to camp sites. There is of course a wired fence setup for alerting us against polar bears but half the time there could be false alarms because of the wind and snow drift. Luckily on our trip though, we hadnt had to deal with them at our camps but we did see them from a distance and what we usually do is try to scare them off by turning on the snowmobiles and chase them away. The first pic i posted was inland and we didnt fortunately come across any bears but when we moved back to the main station near the sea thats when we saw the polar bear along with her pup.
This one below is when we first saw the Polar Bear and her pup:
The pup trying to in lockstep with her mom:

he’s chasing polar bears away and all we could counter with is:
“In the first pic, you see the camaro that took the parking spot I was going to pull into. The 2nd pic shows the guy as he was getting out — notice the matching mullets of him and his girlfriend. I didn’t get a 3rd pic, b/c he saw me and we had to drive away really quick before he called his friends. He doesn’t look too tough, but you never know — he might have had tough friends. So … we decided to go to a different mall.”

It is impossible to quantify the badassedness of those stories, spurred. Kudos to you. I’m filing a picture of you under “Man” on Wikipedia.
I’ve heard stories about people hunting polars and always wanted to try it (being a hunter and all), but it sounds like it would be difficult. Far more difficult than grizzlies, which some areas practically beg you to hunt. Can you even do that anymore? Is it mostly regional, or was it never even a viable option?
by SgtinManusArmy on Jan 29, 2009 4:36 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I work in a glaciology group and am not a hunter:) That shot gun was strictly for self defense against Polar Bears and since the bears are protected under law we have to have a very convincing reason if we had to shoot them. We were told to shoot at them only if we suddenly encounter them and they are approx no more than 10 meters away from us but otherwise if we see them approaching us then we could start some kind of motor engine that makes a loud noise or could also fire the gun in the air or fire a banger which produces light and sound to frighten them away. So, i dont think hunting them is an option at all (atleast legally) in most places. I dont know if there are exceptions.
The problem with polar bears in some remote locations is that there could be some who have never encountered a human before and so are more curious to get near us and with the sounds we make to frighten them they still try to figure out whats going on by just staying where they are until we finally convince them with more noise to get away from us but the bears which have encountered humans before are wise and usually stay away without much effort from us.
And just for measure a pic of the footprints of the mom and pup:

You know what’s funny about the “chick magnet” comment is he really does seem to flirt with cute girls and women. Like we’ll be walking in the mall or someplace, and a cute girl walks by, and he gives her this “look at me, I’m so adorable, don’t you want to hug me” look, and 9 times out of 10 the girl will smile at him and wave or wink. He doesn’t try to make eyes at less attractive girls or at guys.

I got the idea from fish forums. Though usually there, it’s the girls who put their pics first, and guys are more reluctant to. It could be because most are old guys an maybe the only bright thing in their life is flirting with someone online.
Anyway, I’m really glad it took off, I was worried I was gonna be the only one putting my dumbass face on the thread and the rest were gonna be…um…no way.

How is Fantastic Four II bad? Are you gay? The whole point of the movie was to ride Jessica Alba’s popularity at the time. The Thing could have been painted green and wear a tutu and no one would notice.

I don’t make fun of Tony for being French. I make fun of him for being a crappy passing point guard, an inefficient scorer and an indifferent defender.
He just happens to be a pompous French bastard. I’m just happy he’s not American so I can say whatever I want without PC twits calling me a racist.
You gotta admit Powell, Tony makes it awfully easy to make fun of him sometimes. The rapping, the pictures, the wife, the ego, it’s not like I’m hurting for material.

Hey, just saving the best for last dood.
Well that sounded really gay. Not that there would be anything wrong with being gay. Unless you’re one of those gays who pretend he’s not gay and is against other gays, in which case it is wrong to be gay. Well, not so much being gay as being a hypocrite. So it IS wrong to be a hypocrite but not to be gay. I think it would be wrong to be a gay hypocrite, but not because of the gay part, because there’s nothing wrong with that unless you’re also a hypocrite.
Just trying to clarify.

Hey guys...
Just wanted to give you guys some major props. I’m a huge Laker fan but I occasionally read this site from time to time, particuarly when our teams are playing each other. It takes some balls to actually show your faces on the internet these days. Most guys these days are such big badasses on internet blogs but in reality are pencil thin geeks who couldn’t bench their weight if their life depended on it. It’s very cool to see you guys man up and show your ugly mugs.
Good luck to your team the rest of the season.

You have to be in pretty good shape to bench your weight. Plus, it’s harder for tall guys like me. The geometry of the long arms and all, plus I have to do more weight. I can do 5 pull-ups, though. Can I get a RCollier27 presidential ribbon of fitness?
