    If you're legit, I apologize. But choosing a buxom super-hero as an avatar is akin to our male cohorts choosing a shirtless Mark Wahlberg as an avatar. I'm just saying it's suspicious.

        So, you're saying you don't go with a shirtless Mark Wahlberg because you're not looking to ensure the women here don't occasionally skip your posts? I can respect playing to the majority.

              I'm pretty sure I used a Wahlberg Calvin Klein pic for awhile. I was trying to make up for U4E's avatar, I think. I'm definitely in favor of a few guys taking up the cause.

              FIG: they accused me of being Jefe back in the day. They're just an eensy bit high strung around here. You get used to it.

                  FIG, help us out here. IS FIG acceptable for FIG or not? Does FIG have to do what FIG have to do?

                    Solon is not as perverted as you. Don't try to drag his good name through the mud.

                      If there's one thing I love about this board it's how the guys get to decide what's offensive to the women. Come to think of it, maybe we should ask Seattle if the FIG nickname is okay.

                        It don't really care one way or the other. People have used it as an abbreviation for a long time.

                            What's funny is one of my friends (a girl) on that other board started it. She's pretty innocent. She was just looking to save time in typing.

                              Phew. I would never be able to type out your full moniker without beaucoup des typos. Welcome again, FIG.

                                You learn something new every day. I was not familiar with the slang meaning of fig until people started questioning it in this thread. Hopefully my google search doesn't get me in trouble here at work.
