Wow, that must have taken some time... :P Noperson can ever accuse you of being a warthog...
I have seen the kneeling warthog emoticon, but don't quite get what it's saying.

Someone could explain it to you, but that would be...
It's a local meme that started at the time of the NFL kneeling protests, about how moderators are opposed to doing any work. It's been since extended to a generic protest against anything that requires effort.

Basically "I can't be bothered" or "that would take too much effort". It's the canonical reply from an admin when asked to do work. The origins are somewhat odd, but it's a well known shorthand (like the ) around these parts.

What's the meaning behind that hidden chevron?
"I didn't spend the time to find a portion that wasn't watermarked."

Dude, I added the watermark.
You have upvote notifications disabled, otherwise you'd know who @Tsaukpaetra is.
-
@Zecc Sorry, but I still believe the chevron in that avatar is somewhat hard to link to @Tsaukpaetra's serial upvoting habit until pointed out.
I guess associate it more easily with a military rank than the upvote button...

:P Inside jokes often bewilder the outsiders for a while. ;)

? that is a duo helix, with a pin in the middleI don't science much, but I believe if you ignore the pin it's single. No I didn't spend over an hour trying to find a reasonable depiction of this.
-
@Tsaukpaetra Yup, definitely looks like a single helix. Only one strip circling around the pin.
-
@PleegWat :donut: The pin is a degenerate helix.

@Tsaukpaetra
I feel honored. Thank you very much :D
You have awesome drawing skills, but unfortunately it's shown rather small...[edit]
There, I fixed it :D

Oh don't worry, if you want me to feel you specially all you need do is ask... 😉

Are you trying to mess with our visual memory?
Not intentionally, but I like your gift. Thanks!

Because why not? :D
-
@Tsaukpaetra Thanks. I appreciate the effort. However, I identify as a vermin-infested carrion-feeder, so I'm trying to avoid any Che Guevara -esque romanticising angles.

So a more grotesque avatar? I'll see what I can do....
How about this?
-
@Tsaukpaetra I was eating lunch when I checked back here. There goes my appetite.
Teaches me to tell the wrong kind of joke online. Some things just don't translate well to written form, or else escalate in a direction I wish I could unsee. No offence meant.
So, uh, thanks again. But I think I'll just dig up my own original avatar.Say... is that a watercolor painting? Watercolors are kind of associated with primary school arts classes around here. I hope that's not from an arts class. As if primary schoolers today didn't have disturbing enough pastimes already.

That was a joke? Holy fuck, at least put a or or something!
I feel like I just got a hint at what commissioners are like...

I don't recall where I snipped it from, but I don't think it's watercolor.
Edit: Ah, it was from this artist:
Canvas, for sure, full HD version is there if anyone else wants to analyze it.
