> [@cityboy916](#): > > **Chicago Faucet** reminds me of a picture in OMNI magazine (IIRC) from several years back. It showed a great big faucet in an outdoor nature scene, and the caption read “cleanliness is next to godliness.” That may be for you, but for me it’s just another drip from Chicago. 😉 ---

I couldn’t live with such a scruffy mental image. Change that to “decent beer” and I’d swear you lurked in my apartment. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to put my hand in my pants and talk about the time I scored 4 touchdowns in a single game… ---

> [@Grey](#): > > **Phlosphr** always struck me as the Birkenstock wearing philosophy prof I had in university. However, **Phlosphr** , in my mind, glows. Yes, but you must complete the image by adding that **Phlosphr** wears _socks_ with the sandals, even in summertime. And I agree about the glowing. ---

> [@wakimika](#): > > Painfully obvious but unavoidable: the kid on the Dutch Boy paint cans. That’s just what I was going to say. I picture **FairyChatMom** as the Tooth Fairy in those CoinStar commercials, the one who gets knocked down by the weight of all the quarters, and cashes them in for dollar bills at the CoinStar machine. Ever since I started seeing those ads, I just associated her name with that ad. ---

> [@wakimika](#): > > Painfully obvious but unavoidable: the kid on the Dutch Boy paint cans. Really? I kind of thought of the lady with the bonnet, wooden clogs, and feather duster from the Old Dutch Bleach bottles. Old version [here.](http://countryjoe.bizland.com/Xoldutch.jpg) Newer versions she has a feather duster or toilet brush. ---

Sorry to say the obvious, but **Smeghead** just HAS to look like Rimmer, complete with large ‘H’ on the forehead. ---

**«Ðëëp¤F®ïêd»™** (you’d better believe I copied that!:D), you’re name conjures up a piece of delicious, perfectly-done, piping hot tempura bobbing to the top of a wok full of hot oil. Delicious! Transfering that to a person, I get some one who’s a bit frazzled, a lot crazy in the best possible way, and a lot of fun! CJ ---

You are all actually rabid squirrels with above average intelligence… aren’t you? Quietly foaming at the mouth as you post and then chittering in anger at some comment you’ve read, spittle flying. Yes… this is how I picture all of you, yes. _stares straight ahead, afraid of making direct eye contact or any sudden movement_ ---

**Chicago Faucet** reminds me of the time I used to work at Chicago Faucet as a temp. They had a nice building, but I could see I90 through the windows, and it was really bothersome. It was up on a ramp at that spot, and with the angle through the windows and everything, looked like cars were whizzing along on a road resting on thin air. **Giraffe** must be a tall, lanky guy, who teases everyone in the world. Oh, and he has spots and a tongue like this 😛 only longer… ---
