Enough with the monkey bra pederson avatars!!

The collection of avatars a few pages back should be the new definition of epic. I feel like they should all be buttons in some sort of GWJMMO.

This meme is leading to some bizarre scenes in other threads:

Awesome - I was hoping there'd be some interesting stretches of MBP-avatared posts

(also updated the monkey army post - Tyrian's actual avatar is now being used, and added other folks I've seen sporting MBP icons)

Poor bnpederson, I'm sure he must be conviced he's some sort of meme magnet at this stage. I mean, how many bnpederson themed memes have been birthed on these forums thus far? How many people can say they've inspired even one?

It's what happens when you get a group full of people who are looking for some sort of distraction during their long days of work and frustration. We escape into our games when we can. When we can't, we'll happily manufacture our own fun. If it wasn't bnpederson, I'm certain it'd be someone else.

Might as well be him.

Just wait until he hits up everyone for a $20 fee for copyright violation.

Who was it that showed up to a meet/greet with the cocnut bra on, that's what the monkey is missing.

Baggachipz if I remember correctly.

EDIT: Yep here ya go, photoshop away.

Good idea. Everyone, to use my face as an avatar I demand you donate at least $20 to the Gamers with Jobs donation drive. Demand it!

Topped up my donation. It's a fine looking face, luxurious coat too.

Ok so who's going to make a donation large enough to use this avatar?

As often as bnpederson has posted his own face throughout the forums, isn't that like trying to barter a fee after rendering services?

I'm not sure if that's the full lineup, though. Here's who I saw:

He might as well give it a shot...

It's funny, I've actually only posted my own picture... six or so times? One in a Show Your Beard thread, four in the picture thread (once initially, once due to forgetfulness, and twice or perhaps thrice thereafter as a joke) and once as a joke in some other random thread I forget the title of. And even then it's been the same three pictures of myself taken all at the same time; I don't even own a camera.

It's the weird thing about memes, the subject of them can't really control them once they've become memes. They've been appropriated by the masses and are thus beyond you. When the first one happened I had the choice of fighting it or just going with it, and Wordsmythe convinced me to just go with it. So far it's been okay, though I admit to being weirded the hell out by this whole freaking thread.

Honestly, I'm surprised this has lasted a week.

Just so that it's preserved for when this thread is in the archives, here's my avatar.

Everyone needs to preserve theirs also. Do it for the children.

My guess is that you're not going to get any new converts, and the avatars will last more out of inertia than anything else.

You are being a heck of a good sport about it. I mean, you might as well, seeing as you can't change it, but still cool.

*Cough*

Has all the ones I've actually seen "in the wild". I'll add any others that were used but I haven't seen, though.

Can this thread make it to page 10? Here - let me just help you along, ensuring that Monkey Bra "Boobikscube" Pederson takes one more step into the epic thread hall of fame.

I am going to try to remember this for the next S&T so that I can print out a "Hello, My Name Is..." sticker using this meme for every attendee.

I gave up on mine even though it's easier on the eyes than my usual icon. It was fun while it lasted.

Someone should totally do up one for me, since I'm, well, lazy. I've been cruising on the default thus far.

Post your original avatar, if work allows, you'll get your freaky avatar do jour.

The question is, will the meme get a second wind in Xmas?
