The title is my byline for this blog.
Cheerful Monk in her response to me in her blog about Gravatars suggested that I should use this one as mine.
Presumably because the elephant is wise and this is a rear view of it!
I have used another one in my facebook page which got maximum ‘likes’.
Needless to say, the ‘likes’ are all from friends.
Now, I wonder which suits me better. Be honest, let me have your views. I however reserve the right to not change my avatar .
i ADORE “donkey!”
even though i love elephants.
but if you ever saw any of the shrek movies… especially the first one…
and HEARD that darling donkey speak … you’d know why so many likes were given to you.
he was very wise too. a pain in the ass. (you should pardon the expression. but that’s what he was. literally and figuratively… to shrek)
but you are no such thing. you are the wise donkey. not an ass.
that’s why the rear view of the elephant does not your gravatar make!

I don’t mind being an ass Tammy, just not a jackass!
Yes, the donkey is cuter. 🙂

I knew that you would choose it.
the elephant is more fitting to the subject, of course, but also a bit unnerving- like wondering just what it is going to do- back up and smash you, or something else. the donkey is cute, but perhaps you could find an animal, like one of the three singing chipmunks, or a strong proud animal like a horse, looking backward over its shoulder?

I was not under the impression that you were uncomfortable with your identity. It is rather hard to change who we are as we get older.

I am perfectly comfortable in my own skin Looney. I just like to fool around with my avatars for some humour!

Given those options only I like the elephant for the humor it shows

Not a well trained dog?
I vote for the donkey.
I always suspected that you thought that I was one.
Oh, you are fishing. I consider you a wise person. Just the image of the donkey is more sympathetic.
Either way, you’re declaring yourself an Ass, which does not become you.

Thank you my dear friend. It is nice to have you on my side.
Okay, when I read this I had to check Monk’s response… I thought she was calling you an a**? Not really her style. I like them both. The hindsight is clever, and I like the subtlety. The donkey is cute and a bit cheeky which might be appropriate, but too blatant? Your wit is often clever in the understatement, and I feel the elephant reflects this. To be clear, I am not casting my political views on this discussion. Maybe consider Dun-Na-Sead’s suggestion. Perhaps one of the monkeys (see no evil, hear no evil…).
Monk’s subtlety is not all that obvious is it? I had to draw her out.
