What Does Your Blog Tag Pic Say About You?

December 15th 2006 07:29
My apologies if this question has been asked before but I can’t find it anywhere. And if it hasn’t been asked...then why not?

Curiosity didn’t kill the cat. Indifference did.

What led me to ask this question is my Caramella’s (A.H.) blog tag pic. Uncannily...although I didn’t know this at the time of writing, I found out soon after and not because I asked her (no, that would be far too easy...) but through communication on another post (link provided if you’re curious).


Why and how did we choose the pictures/photos that we did? I often wonder what the blog tag pic says about the blogger...why did the blogger choose that particular photo/picture to represent the blogger’s personality?

One of my favourites is KarenC’s (who’s MIA at the moment). A clever combination of both her blogging loves.
Now that I know the reason behind Caramella’s picture, I love it more.
And of course I love what Cherry A’s (K.L.) depicts...as she so succinctly puts it on her homepage.

There are many others that fascinate me...I won’t list them for fear of being accused of sycophancy.
(...okay maybe some...Pegasus, Nina, ~Lily and KylieW...I do love yours...)

And I’m fascinated by these groups(?) of bloggers;
a) the ones who show their ‘real’ faces
b) the ones who use the generic Orble face...especially the ones who are not only Anonymous but hermaphroditic as well.

I’m also curious as to why many of us have a different picture/photo on our homepages.


As to what my blog tag pic represents...
R ugby
U nion
G amma
B oth
Y in and yang

And that’s all she wrote folks...

What does your blog tag pic say about you? What does it represent? What does it say about who you are?

My dear Golden Dusk

First of all, I just want to make it clear that I was not the artist on my particular blog tag piccy.

I hate to admit it but my seven year old daughter (who drew the cat) is a much better artist than I'll ever be. My cats always look like they have five legs ... don't know why.

I'm sure I can sing better than her, though ...?

My piccy does have sentimental significance to me (as you know) and it seemed appropriate, even though it has absolutely nothing to do with diet or health. Maybe I should get her to doodle a Caramella Koala for me (yes, I know, they're caramello koalas but that isn't quite right, is it).

Talking about blog tag piccys (of course we were, that's what the post is all about) yours is extremely appropriate ... the exotic and mysterious Gold Angel mingled with a dash of your beloved Wallabies.

Perfectly Dusk.

And our Cherry A ... well she is the archetypical sex scene writing mother after all !!!

(Hello Cherry!)

Another thought provoking post from our resident Rugby Angel.

Your Caramella MOSTEST Sis.

December 15th 2006 10:35
When I first started at Orble, I was tossing up whether to go for a photo of myself or a more symbolic representation of an aspect of me. In the end I decided to combine the two, with the result being the more artistic avatar I now have. I chose to go with that because I wanted to have something that was true to me, but still left an 'air of mystery,' so to speak. Pretentious? Probably...

Hey DuskDevi,

I think mine is fairly straightforward, if not unimaginative...

Hi DuskyD,

Good to see you again, MIne is me for now, but varies according to my ecclectic, pre-menopausal mood swings... sometimes the Enviro Guru Goose - when I feel I've been played or had, sometimes me and sometimes the butterfly... I may add more and experiment... I like Nina's idea and may play around in photoshop... we are never just one thing and I hate typecasting...either way...isn't it a womans perogative to change her mind...?

A great question DD,

Lilla....

December 15th 2006 22:54
This was the first picture taken of me because of my actions being relevent, rather than just because somebody who knew me had the camera.
I"m doing a speech I wrote, just after winning the Arts catorgory at the student of the year competition.

I finally worked out how to pronounce your name ...

I'll write my response to this bullshit post (just another one of yours) later .... when you have the common courtesty to answer the people who have responded to this post ... you control freak! ***

Homer ...

What a great Rugby League Blog you have. You are such a girl. You can't help yourself from losing focus on the game ... You have to indulge in girly giggly rubbish ... I can almost hear your girly voice and imagine you giggling ... like a lovesick teenager ... Well, how couldn't I? Every post you've ever written smacks of that ...

He-he-he ... I reckon you'd sound just like Cathy Freeman ... Not all bimbos are caucasian btw ...

He-he-he ...

And here was me promising Josh Z I would stop being nasty ...

I am so misunderstood. Thank fuck you have a sense of humour and love wit ... and know what a complete load of utter bullshit what I am writing to you is ... and that I actually find your blog more-than entertaining ... you fucking shit-stirrer you ...

Catch you later ... (If I don't see you coming first and hide ...

Where was I?
Oh yes...


...Angel sisters will be the first to comment and here you are...always...my Caramella sis...

Well...one could say your pic is a catalyst for diet and health...

Was that lame?

Hello Nina pretty TV babble-ina...

Well you know it was love at first byte when I saw your pic! Love your face and how the pic highlights the contours.

Excuse me...

(give it up Homer. Get your mind out of the gutter and back in the dirt)

I'm back.

Pretentious? No way.
Mysterious? Hell yeah.

This is what I'm asking. About the symbolic representation. About what we subconciously see ourselves as.

Love your visits Nina

Luke:
...but why did you pick this one? What did you like about it? Why does this one say "I'm Luke"?
Hell, I would have picked Cool Hand or Skywalker...

Hello Lilla lovely...

You too know that I loved your pic...the butterfly one...it is lovely to see you...although I have seen the other aspects of you as I wandered around Orble....had wondered about that but now I wonder no more.

And yes...it is a woman's right to be anything she wants when she wants.
It's a basic human right.

Lilla...as always...it's lovely to see you...

Homer. Treasure. Sweet Pal. You're insane.

(I would have said you're fucking insane but I'm not that vulgar and... you'd ask "who's she?")

If I wasn't madly and passionately in love and married to The Ultimate Man...I'd hunt you down and ruck the scrum out of you.

I'm the shit stirrer??
Yeah. Okay.
And you're Superman.

You do realise that you have firmly set in cement your status as Resident Lunatic?
It's not me you have to hide from...

Dusk
Sitting here, shaking her head and wondering at her lunacy putting up with a sick, sociopathic, psychopathic, shit stirring prick like Homer Joyce...but damn I like him.

Dusk,

You formerly delightful store of (4) perfumed odours.

I am in awe of you lack of vulgarity. I worship the way you write the word ‘fucking’ without being vulgar.

Who’s she? She is the cat’s mother. Assimilate.

As to your continual references to this Ultimate Man of yours. As far as I’m concerned, Stephen Larkham is … some bonehead/meathead who plays Rugby League … (or some other form of non-pure football), and quite frankly, I think any form of that pussy throw-the-ball-to-me-instead of kicking-it is such poofy private-school wank ….Poofy Wank. Toss. Poof. Wank. (have I made my point?)

As to your references to shit-stirring ….I think you are anal-retentive.

As to your references to Superman, well I’ll just ignore them. You obviously prefer looking at comic books rather than meeting a real Superman. Read on. Dream on. You dippy, trippy biatch.

Cement? What would a woman know about cement? They’re all sexist bitches.

I’m not hiding from you. .You’re the one who has to put a Wallabies snot rag in front of your face so no-one recognises you. Not that anyone would. You’re a fucking nobody. *** I have slaves in my harem. They beg me to treat them like a slut. This is your attitude to women degrading themselves: ‘Oh, dearie, dearie me. I could never do that.’ You are just one more prude on this Orble wank spoofy site … ****

Shake your head all you like. If I had any emotional attachment to you at all, I would put something in your mouth to make you shake your head in a ‘real’ manner.

Dream on about me liking you. Dream on.

Mogwai?

Homer.

My Tom Cruise shot as my girlfriend teases, was put up to give the illusion of respectability and that I had a sense of cool.

Also it was the only photo I could find where I wasn't my usual sloppy self.

I like your avatar it has an understated sexual mystery to it with the hanky obscuring your face. Reminds me of a Turkish belly dancers.

Um...why?


Comment by Homer Joyce

December 18th 2006 08:20
Devil,

Sycophantic, brown-nosing, plagiaristic, butchering references to one of my favourite Van Morrison songs ....

normally doesn't work with me?

How do you do that?

Why is it I think you are one of the few (only) Orblers who 'gets it'? Um, because you do?

As to your references to Nurse Duckett's thermometer ... And since this is a post about pics. Any chance of you putting up a new Orble Blog Tag Pic of yourself in a nurse's uniform? (Half in it, anyway ... or wrapped around your head like a a turban would be even better. Just use digital imaging re your body parts. I don't want to see them, thanks. I'm inundated with more than enough porn as it is). Can you also include a a throbbing, pulsating thermometer in your mouth ... just licking the tip of it with your lips ... before you insert it somewhere? As you are bending over a sick patient? Yum. I'll post lots more 'normal' stuff like this on your blog if you do! Yum.

And a bowl of bananas in the background? (It would be nice if one of the bananas had its skin off ... just around the tip of the banana, and looked like it had been licked and sucked). Nothing like a bit of still life.

Oh, and can you please stop interruping my holidays? And my phone calls. What phone calls? You ask? Don't tell anyone on Orble ... but I get off on phone sex ... and hate being interrupted.

Signed: Sicko Homer.

Oh, and have a merry, merry Christmas. Enjoy lying naked, with your legs spread up the chimney on Christmas eve waiting for Santa to come.

Naughty, Sicko Homer.

Yum.

I had to interrupt my holidays to read Sandi's comment.

Yum. When women had curves. 40s women. Yum. When women were women, and wore skirts and dresses. Yum.

I'm going to visit Sandi's site. (only to look at the pictures, unless she writes about women with curves. Yum.

Yum. Yum. Yum.

Hello Sandi...

Does "hell to the nah" mean anything to you?

I am a fan of yours, visit your blog often, subscribe to it, laugh myself stupid at your brilliance...yet...I have never commented and that's funny, considering I go to the Homer Joyce School of Arrogant Humility...one must be in love with the sound of their own words...

...sometimes I just don't know what to say and yes, I did see Elvis on a flying pig yesterday.

As you say elsewhere though...one must truly "Get.Over.Yourself.Please" (by the way... brilliant...I have not left a comment on this post simply because I do not wish to add to the harvest of hypocrisy)

I do love your blog tag pic and I too love the 40s pin-up girl, especially the Varga Girls...hell, I love women full stop. We're just so damn beautiful.

Thanks for coming by Sandi...be seeing you...

Dusk,

Ohh, can't believe I was on hols and missed this post!

I didn't put much thought into my pic. If I had ever had a decent photo taken of me, I probably would have used that. But I didn't have one to hand. So in fact I found this one playing in clipart (how original)!

But then that's how I do most things. I got a tattoo when I was 20. I walked into the tattooist, looked at the pics for 10 mins and picked out one - lucky I love dolphins, cos it could have been a bad choice.

I got my tongue pierced at 26 because a friend of mine was going to get her eyebrow pierced and I thought getting something pierced would be fun. Actually I think the conversation went:

Me: "Oh my god, I want to get something pierced too, book for me too".
Friend: "What will you get pierced"
Me: "Ummm....how bout my tongue? Yeah, I'll do that".

I didn't even think to ask how they pierced your tongue. I almost freaked out when the dentist (yes, I got it done at a Dentist who also did piercings....weird) pulled out of the biggest bloody needle I've ever seen to pierce me.

I really should put more thought into the things I do....but then I'm a gut instinct kind of girl.

Wow, guess my pic does say something about me huh!

I'm off now to check out JD's Tom Cruise style pic.

Okay...I have an advantage because I work from home...major disadvantage when an Orble notification comes through...then work be damned!

Finally Kylie.... Damn girl...waiting, waiting...

Okay...you know what you've done now, don't you?
You've got all these poor men (maybe some women) wondering where the dolphins are frolicking...!!

AND...maybe I'm just in this frame of mind today because my husband has been away and will be back tonight but darlin'...that whole "biggest bloody needle... to pierce me" sounds mighty metaphorical!!

Kylie...couldn't you have gone with Brosnan or a scream....??
Ouch girl...
My eldest son got one, much to our chagrin and just to annoy me he'll click it against his teeth.
He is so out of my will.

I love that you're a go by gut instinct kinda girl.
I saw this from the start (just call me Patma Bak)... I described you as "feisty, bright and delightful" in one of my posts.

You just keep conffirming how right I am!!

Thanks KW.

Now if I could choose 3 adjectives to describe me, those would be the ones I'd like!!

Hehehehe, you have a dirty mind!!! I didn't even think of the metaphorical implications of the 'biggest needle' remark....but now I can't stop giggling about it! Very juvenile I know.

Hello DuskDevi,

No longer MIA - apologies. I did miss you and think of you. I looked for teal streaked hair on Amazon goddesses every day as I walked the streets of our beautiful city.

As you know, mine is a Mongolian postage stamp of a swan. And, as you say, it sums up two of my biggest loves in life - the Sydney Swans and Mongolia (the history of the place is wonderful, alas I have only visited Hohhot, a very Chinese city in Inner Mongolia. Never go there if you can help it.) When I saw it I had to have it as my very own. I think it's so beautiful.

Thanks for the mention. I promise I won't disappear for too long again...

Karen

Finally!!!

Hiya KC...

Tip taken. Hohhot. Off the travel itinerary....but it sounds so... mysterious... so strangely exotic.... so...tee hee....hhhhot!

I do love your blog tag pic.
And I'm so happy to see you...and will be happier to really see you.

Er...umm....KC...I soooo am not going to live up to that expectation!!
Especially today...there's something in the air, a lethargy....does anyone else feel it or is it time for me to put on a long sleeve white jacket accessorised with belts, buckles and ties??

I know you won't be posting but you'll still be visiting yes?

Dusk

January 9th 2007 13:37
I will still be visiting, lovely Dusk. There are a few of you crazy Orble guys I just can't keep away from.

And I think you will live up to my Amazonian style expectations. I myself am just shy of 5'5" (and that towers above my mother and at least three of my friends, so I feel very tall in several circles in my life) But anyone above 5' ... well, 7" really is an Amazon to me.

Anyway, your spirit is Amazonian in size and beauty ... you could never let me down.

Comment by DuskDevi

January 9th 2007 13:50
I thought you might be awake KC... I'm going back of house now...hear from me soon...

And...oh God thank you. That's such a beautiful thing to say.

Karen...now that I know your height, the thought of you refereeing wheelchair rugby...woah girl...am in total awe! More than before.

(For those of you that may think wheelchair rugby is sedate...think again. It's not called Murderball for nothing. Nerves of steel...especially the ref)

Actually KC...you should write a post about this. If not on your SwansGal blog then I'm more than happy to put it up here...but I think you should post it on yours.

Your swan song.

"Time keeps on slippin..."
Mine is in Shanghai, at a "garden" (nothing green to be admired here) next to those flea markets that everyone seems to know about. The cloning adds to the effect, ya?

I first heard of Orble when Eppy (PMC) told me she has a blog. I checked it out, I wanted to comment, and haven't looked back.

I think I feel a huntsman crawling up my back right now... time to turn around (bright eyes)

Oh yeah and the homepage is me on a street that was named after my great-uncle. Pimpin all over the world, baby.

Ahhh..you had an epiphany...

Hello OptoMystic,

Abacknophobia?
(sorry my 1D humour...Sydney's packing heat today ... love it!))

I can't really make out your blog tag pic...it looks soothing what with the temple and the water.
I thought the street sign may have been your name but it's Av. Uncular!

(yeah, yeah, I know, the punditties are getting boring... oh well)

Thank you for coming by. I hope you're well.

Thankyou. I also find it truly awesome that it looks like water. It was a mistake, initially...

"How'd 'e do dat?"

Cloning. Coming to a sperm bank/photoshop near you.

Now please put your hands together for the non - sequiturials of the world.

Um....so if it's not water, what is it??

Sorry OptoMystic...I just can't make out what your tag pic is...it truly does look like, to me, a temple in the background with a fountain in the foreground..

Help! Need an Opto-metrist....

Cloning is used in photoshop, where you can right click on a point (in this case, me) and colour in unwanted parts of the photo with the clicked-on part of the picture.

Sure, the garden (or "temple") is there, but the waterfall effect is just an unfinished "Clone" of the part of the photo with me in it.

Its all me, me, me when it comes down to it.

Hope you geddit, Optomizee
