Roller-blading redhead, eh? Hmm. I know that you know I’m Chinese and all, but you can click on the little “www” button under this post to see what I do look like. It ain’t pretty, but it’s me. (and my brother, plus a friend of ours)

Ranma is a type of Japanese anime, correct? (or do I really need to sleep, and get these weird associations out of my head for now?)

Hmm…I’ve not posted here much lately, so I doubt I’ve formed many impressions…

Lessee…  
**FairyChatMom** is June Cleaver with wings.  
**Esprix** looks like Warren Zevon - blonde hair, round metal frame glasses, light blue eyes.  
**tavalla** is an angel - though not _quite_ the traditional type…  
**Joe\_Cool** is obviously Snoopy.  
**pravnik** I see as Sean Connery’s Ramius from _Hunt For Red October_

Flamsterette\_X: The Asian chick from \<i\>Futurama\</i\>.

That’s the only one I can think of at the moment. So, what do \<i\>I\</i\> look like?

**galen ubal** : well, there are impressions, and then there are _impressions_, if you get my drift. 🙂 As for what you look like in my mind: a very tall white guy, with brown curly hair, blue eyes… and a truly insane sense of humor. (I’m not much for the descrioptions right now… I’m WAY too tired to post coherently at the moment)

**Gunslinger** : for some reason, your name reminds me of **Apoz** ’s former recurring joke about an ostrich packing heat with a handgun. So though of course I know you’re no ostrich (unless you’re keeping a BIG secret from **racinchikki** and everyone else), I’d say you look like an Old West cowboy… complete with Stetson gun, pistol, whip, rope, cattle prod… etc.

CRAP… I cannot believe I misspelled one of my favorite people’s online names. :smack: That, of course, should be **Spoz**. :smack:

Now I’m going to bed before I wreak yet more havoc on these boards… yeesh. NOT a pretty sight.

Yeah, it’s a japanese anime, but that’s the first thing that popped into my head ( I didn’t even know you were chinese! ).

Here’s a [pic](http://www.hgea.org/~els81/graphics/female1.jpg).  
Oh, and **CelticCowboy** , I don’t smoke crack, but I do fancy me a Marlboro (man) every now and again 😉

**Michael Ellis** , I am so very, very sorry, but I went to high school with a kid named Michael Ellis, and he was short, skinny, had a thin face with big ears and red hair… so, so, so sorry… (I haven’t seen enough Python to picture you otherwise, for \* Flying Circus\* been pulled off the PBS station here)

**Meatros** , I see you as a huge, montrous, and scary Greek guy but one who likes to get down and party hard.

**Yojimbo** , I too, thought of Usagi Yojimbo, for a while, but now I picture you more like [the Aeon from Final Fantasy X](http://store1.yimg.com/I/toyisland_1720_5168959).

As much as I would love to actually **be** Greek, I’m not. Although my fiance is 1/2 Greek 😃 , hehehe…  
Maybe it’s just your username, but I’m getting for you I’m getting the picture of “death”, except instead of a skeleton face, it’s a round face with clown make up on. Creepy, “clowns from outerspace” makeup.😃

**Shirley Ujest** -Your name brings to mind a spirited pixie…although much taller, having human dimensions…

Alright, for some reason I’m getting a picture of the wrestler “Sable” in my mind.

If that’s correct, and you are free, my number is… 😃

**Gazelle From Hell** -When I see your posts, I tend to imagine you as “Tank Girl”, only much better looking, perhaps Lori Petty from “Point Break”, with a “Tank Girl” attitude…

I guess this is what I get for having easily findable photos.

To tell you the truth, Legomancer, I always imagined you as having a cylinder shaped yellow head, which was easily detachable. I also imagined you had two fingers and a squarish body, with a painted on robe. You also wear a cape, which is interchangeable with a few limited pieces of attire. You have white hair, which can be changed to different colors and styles in a “snap”, and you sell for around 1-5 dollars.

You have a tough time walking, because your feet alway stick to the floor. 😃

Clowns from Outerspace, eh?

Spot on, that’s me, when I hide in my apartment… otherwise I look like http://www.giuseppebighead.8k.com/photo3.html (halfway down, the cat and the guy, which one am I?)

Anyway, I see **Qadgop the Mercotan** as a cross between a benevolent wizard/doctor and a space adventurer, and **Bosda** as a alien hybrid rough n’ tumble space adventurer.

And **FairyChatMom** is one of those moms from the 50s in all those film strips about homes and appliances from the future, with that crazy music from The Sims build mode. Together, with **The Perfect Child™** , they are a **Wholesome, Happy Model Family™**.

Fortunately, everything I need to hold is of a uniform radius so that it easily snaps into my hand!

Hmmm…

**Scylla** has always struck me as like unto Archie Bunker, yelling at Edith because she ate one of his frozen pizzas.

I picture **BlondBottleJeannie** as Barbara Eden wearing Dolly Parton’s wig.

**FairyChatMom** reminds me of the fairy godmother from [Twice Upon a Time](http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Dimension/9049/twice1.html)

**Meatros** has to be a throwaway character from _Futurama_. Emperor Meatros, from the planet Omicron Sirloin V.

**XJETGIRLX** comes flying in using her patented JetWings, with her JetPoweredRifle to fight crime.

Yes, **CelticCowboy** …I could _rule_ a planet…  
Muwahahahaha!!😃

I’m having a hard time visualizing what you would look like, primarily because of your username. I get a flash vision of an ancient celt, in uncomfortable cowboy gear, who’s trying to rope in some cattle…Odd really…
