Of My New Avatar

Till now, I didn't really have a display picture. And rather than putting up some random picture, or putting up my own picture when I try so hard to stay anonymous, I wanted to do something unique.

So, staying with the Potato Theme that this blog visually portrays (It Does. Now Shaddap.) I decided to take one unfortunate tuber and fashion it into a proper picture. Being super-adept at handling any sort of knife, I hacked and sliced my way to this beauty.

I came to realise after the hack and slash that washing it was a bad idea, as it removed all the contrast between the skin and the facial features. Also, I froze it to make my carving easier.

And before all the Emos rejoice, that's not my blood but Red Marker Ink liberally drizzled over the tater.

Also, yes... that is a top-hat.

Enjoy.

I like you since you're cool but this is just evil.

Damn! I forgot the talcum powder. I was going for a Joker-esque look.

And of course it's cool! It's bloody frozen. Why do you think the the ink's bleeding out from everywhere?

Oh well, tomorrow's a new potato.
