Oh those are "fondling fingers". Fondling fingers can be added to a picture to create the illusion of somebody gently tickling the underside of a dangling organ. Your picture has some fondling fingers too.

I feel like they're really a visual metaphor for my worldview. They're always reaching out, grasping, exploring. These hands mean a lot to me. It's a lot like a really good tattoo, I think, it's a kind of art of the self, you know? I'm just really excited that so many other people have adopted this lifestyle, it really makes me happy.


This avatar is less like a good tattoo, but it's still pretty funny, like some bad tattoos can be, so my comparison is still valid I think.

It is, actually. I had no idea where the animation actually came from, so that's neat.

A quick scan through that thread reminded me that I've always wondered about Elviscat's avatar.



Does he look like that irl and is that a quote from him? If so, :staredog:

Honestly, the whole picture, mainly her attire though, is a bit of a mindfreak. I guess I just sort of forget those kinds of people exist.

The custom title seems fitting for this avatar though:

Two people squabbled about games on the Vita being like anime and Green Puddin was the one who came out with the avatar in the end as well as both parties getting a small probation. It was a dumb argument, hence the second statement.

So I wonder; are these avatars taken from actual shots from their respective shows (as in where there references to Game of Thrones/Bob's Burgers on Venture Bros./Archer) or are they just really well-done photoshops?

I can't speak for Archer but the VB one is a legitimate screencap and a word-for-word quote from the show.

Yes, Bob's Burgers and Archer had a crossover.

I can say that the Archer pic is definitely from the show. Archer forgot who he was and started a new life as a fry cook.

The Bob's Burger reference in Archer is highly probable since both characters (i.e. Archer and Bob) are voiced by the same actor, H. John Benjamin.
