Ok, my avatar is not the world’s most physical guy, but don’t dare to challenge him in a math fight, which is the proper way of fighting for a SDMB avatar anyway.

You will be misdirected into an infinite maze and lost forever. And invited for tea.

There will be no fight. Your avatar will feel an uncontrollable urge to scritch my avatar behind the ears, ask ‘who’s a good boy?’ then you will feel relaxed and happy with the world and no urge to fight. My avatar will carry on snoozin’.

I reside in the forehead chakra. I am calm, refined, intelligent and meditative. I have little to do with lowly, stinky forms of life, and even less with those who are proud to claim one as their mascot. 😛

BUT, when provoked, I can burn that 800 pound hippo to zippo in an instant. I win.
