Have Dinosaurs, will travel.

I take it that's an attempt to divert..?
I'm not 12 years old, but let's pretend that I am susceptible to psychological trickery...

Okay, maybe the quote you pulled was a bit of an ambiguous statement...

I will find some [dinosaurs] or draw some new ones (I've still got a load of dino books from when I was a kid and there're thousands of images on google) and, if they're old, recycled ones, remove the captions if they're in any way offensive (which, because ascii is so rubbish, most of them are - otherwise there wouldn't be any appeal, really, would there?).

I'm adding the spoiler tags, so there won't be any problems with that anymore.
As I said earlier - if you're going to delete anything, will you please let me know first? As a few of the bits here are new and I haven't saved them anywhere else yet.
AOL Homogrounds disappeared and I didn't realise until the other day and a lot of the old places are dead and gone.

I've got a lot of my old stuff on floppy, but I don't have a floppy drive!
I'll start copying and saving the stuff here to the other places I frequent that aren't as busy or have as young an audience as here.

hmmm... I don't really want to use the art forum for discussion, but I do think that there is something about finding things funny in private and public pooh-poohing.

I reckon that unless art (if you can call this art... I don't) provokes some kind of reaction, then it's not doing its job.
Art should titillate and shock and please and give joy all at once.
I've always believed that, because ascii & ansii is quite a limited medium, such drawings need to have some kind of cartoon-like aspect.
Such as captions, low-rez content, lame humour, etc...

If I wanted to get offended at stuff, I'd start harping on about how I find smileys of Hitler offensive because I'm from Romany stock.
But, I don't. Because I'm not offended enough to say anything and if people want to announce their presence by shouting "JEW!", poking fun at the extermination of millions of people (any you know my feelings on certain issues surrounding things like that because of what I have experienced, seen and done through my wasted life) or find the discrimination of other people, purely because of the fluke that they were born in a certain way - to use but one pertinent example - amusing, that's up to them.

On the rare occasion that I feel that I'm starting to get offended by something - I just don't engage.
No-one is forcing me to read, view or accept anyone else's opinions or whatever.

Maybe I'm wrong..?

Stuff That's Not Suitable For Work or When Yr Mum's Looking

As far as I'm concerned, I post things in the spoiler tags and if anyone wants it removed - just please let me know so I can save it first!
I'm not likely to disagree or start causing grief.

This is a bit like my neighbours complaining to the management company about me leaving my bike in the communal hallway - my door is right here... Just knock say and I'll move it.

The stuff which I do put in the spoiler tags is stuff that I would consider to be offensive, should I be be more sensitive or have any empathy or consideration for others.
That way, everybody who bothers looking at any of this knows that it is stuff that isn't for kiddie-winks or people who don't share my sense of humour.

Thanks!
Pete

Wow - if you put #'s in bold, they go straight - that's really handy.

I award this 3 out of 3 naked primates

[Saccade]

Maaaan!

They are some ugly monkeys... That one at the bottom looks like Smeagol on anabolic steroids.

*shivers

[Lulu_Jane]

Heh, I love them, I think they look like people, albeit weird twisted looking people.

EDIT: I've taken two of them away, no need for me to rape the dailup users with more bald monkeys than necessary, but I've left you Macho Smeago, enjoy

[arete]

Don't worry - were they truly offensive you would've been banned and severely beaten by a tyrannosaurus. (Probably only if you stood very close to the wretched thing...) "This is horrible! Somebody cover my eyes!" Poor Mortimer, always the butt of jokes. At least until he ate all his detractors. I'm tired. Must go to bed...

I think what Pete's trying to say is that everyone's an individual, but I wouldn't pay too much attention to him as he's being a nob.
