Nominations - Best Profile Decoration

[Geru Tosz]

Here you can nominate that member who has shown good taste and creativity in their signature, avatar and status in the past year so they can win an awesome and unexistant award.

Bear for his somewhat pretentious, but dedicatedly updated social media-like reading/watching/listening-to signature

[Reba]

how can a bear with 3d glasses be pretentious

[Hermes]

Terry. I don't know what his avatar is, but it's certainly striking.

[Cracky McTeague]

It's some old George Cruikshank illustration.

Note that I've been updating my status with different two-word phrases fitting the "O.P." like "Ochre Prince," "Ongoing Prodigy" and "Occasional Provocateur." I have now started this up again, and will continue to do so if I win this award. If I'm not gonna win, I'll stop and log off forever.*

SPOILER: Click to show

*I promise, only the logging off is a joke

Do you know what it stood for originally? I believe historically it stood for Old Prices, but that doesbn't seem to fit the illustration.

(Also: Order of Preachers, Old Pauline, Opposite Prompt, Original Poster....)

[Cracky McTeague]

My "O.P."s have to be theoretically applicable to one person (in this case, me), so your first three examples won't work... trust me, one is a bit limited in adjectives starting with O and descriptor nouns starting with P. "Original Poster", however, was my first status update with the profile picture.

Oh and yes, the cartoon was about the prices at Covent Garden Theatre.

[Hermes]

Well, I wasn't really trying to suggest things for you to sue as a status, just saying what 'o.P.' has traditionally stood for. But 'Order of Preacerhes' cna be used of an individual, as in 'Father Joe Smith, O.P.', and 'Old Pauline' naturally refers to an individual - what else?

[Hermes]

I could now correct my post, so that no one will know what you are talking about, but I have decided to let it stand. I hop you are pleased with this.

That, old pal (hint hint), I shall continually reveal only once I win this Zortie. PS It won't be you boring-ass traditional uses of OP

[Hermes]

I feel we are at cross purposes, but further attempts to explain would probably cause more confusion, so whatever.

i think herms was making a joke about pauline being an old lady's name
