You complimented him and he quickly clarified that it wasn't him.
Well, since nobody wants to claim this, I'll just take that as a left-handed, round'-the-corner compliment

I think if you want to post a real picture, go for it, it's fun and I've enjoyed it. If you post an obviously fake picture (Mickey Mouse), then it's funny, although I guess it does violate TOS. If you post a fake picture only you know is fake (your cousin), then I guess you're cautious.

If you post a fake picture of an obscure famous person just to see if people 'get it', you're kind of an a##hole, but whatever.


..And she (mimimom) says she wasn't talkingabout Jobert - who at the time I was taking to task over his fake picture and not owning up that it was not himself when he was called out by InTheCut, TexasTea and myself. So I guess, it will remain a mystery who she says was being "pompous and jerky" about his picture.
No, that's what she was talking about. If you go through the thread you will see the exchange. I'm telling you, I have way toooo much time on my hands

You get the picture. I should have said 'one' instead of 'you'. I'm over it.

I find Jobert's posts amusing. They actually have made me laugh out loud at times. Sometimes people are way too serious on here!

I think we pick at details too much....we should try to converse like real life...just having fun, letting in go where it may....if we were this persnikedy in real life talk no one would ever talk to anybody.....
The key is having fun, or making us think and ponder interesting things...
