1. How'd you find the Freethought Forum?

I was steered here by another noob.

2. Are you a member of any other online forums? Which?

I belong to Fivepak's Free Speech Forum.

3. How do you feel about smilies (emoticons)?

If they're used to amplify existing words then they're okay. However, I feel that they are primarily used by those incapable of expressing themselves properly - a crutch, in other words. The one place I find them handy is when I want to take 'the sting' out of something I've posted I might add a :).

4. How do you feel about 3000+ smilies?

See response to question #3 and you might gain some insight.

5. Is flaming:

A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck

D. None of the above. Sometimes it's downright mandatory.

6. Is vulgar language:

A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck

Same answer as #5 above, fuckers.

7. Why did the chicken cross the road?

The chicken was obviously enticed there by a bullshit government entitlement program. Either that or it was looking for cock.

8. Who pays for your food?

Umm....I do?

9. What's one thing you've always wanted to do but never have?

Kate Beckinsale.

10. What is your single favorite place in the world?

My basement/man apartment.

11. What's the significance of your username?

It was a nickname given to me by my fellow Naval Officers back in the day. It's based on a semi-obscene cartoon that I drew and put on the bulletin board.

12. What about your avatar?

I prefer anthropomorphic personifications, especially silly ones (yes, I saw that thread).

I dig your anthropomorphic personification, but it's in desperate need of a transparent background. (Yes, I am aware my obsession with white backgrounds is an illness and I should seek professional help.)

So how exactly does one go about transluscerizing one's avatar background?

And how do I do THAT? I tried the old "click on properties and paste" but I get "invalid file."

Right-click on the picture and click on "save picture as". You can save it to your hard drive and then upload it as your avatar.

Alternatively, I could do it for you. :)

Got it! Knew about the photobucket thing, just had a couple problems with the file name.

I am transparently backgrounded now.
