@dualstow, what’s the English translation of the text in your new avatar?
"Want to take a hike?" (Literally "Climb a mountain together?")
It's just a show that my wife is watching. Very popular now.
It's about evil deeds, not mountain climbing.

My favourite episode of the Simpsons will always be the Stonecutter one.

Is it too soon to start dropping the election-related avatars so we can start getting back to normal?

Does that mean I should also be getting the Obama / Biden sticker off the back of my car that was there when I bought the car in December 2013?

I wouldn't, Vinny. I think it makes a real statement on a never washed car.

All the recent avatars are pleasing to the eye.

If it hasn’t been mentioned, Smith’s is a Russian known as “muscle Barbie.”

Indeed! A very unique athlete to be sure. I'd say she's real in a sense that she does actually look like that, but not "real" in a sense that I'm 99.99% sure she's penning steroids.

Either way, clearly a one in a million kind of girl. 8)

Fun fact about me. I am strictly attracted to white/caucasian women. And the preference is not slight. Seeing women of other ethnicities is pretty much the same thing as seeing a dude to me. Not sure why. Just the way my brain is built I guess.

Looks like she could also make a fair amount of money playing a certain type in movies. Though, while I've seen a lot of females in movies who can definitely fight (in both the movies and real life) I don't think I've seen any that have near the muscles that she has.

Then you definitely buck the trend on this forum. Several of us here are white/caucasian guys who have an Asian wife or girlfriend: Me, dualstow, Corto, and (I think) pp4me, to name a few.

Not unless the trend is opposites (in this case, different races) attract.

No. The "Not" belongs there....following is the same thing with all my implied words left spelled out.

"Not unless the [more global view of the] trend is [that] opposites (in this case, different races) attract {as opposed to believing that the [more narrow view of the] trend of the forum is that whites are attracted to Asians].
