My choice of avatar has had quite a few comments over the past couple of week.

Of all the joker avatars I've used I must say:

None is particularly triggering (unless you are batman or an affiliate of batman)

Joker is a commercial figure. Regardless of the actor's longevity (think of all those people who use long-dead hollywood actors etc)

None of my avatars are particularly gory

And finally. I gotta say to all the avatar nazis out there....

WHY

SO

SERIOUS?

Peace out people and remember...keep smiling :)

" Not a problem for me. There has been one or two I have disliked on here,but it's personal choice. I am amazed that some people are still here the amount of things that can 'trigger' them. What an overused word!!!

" Who gives a flying ***k if someone doesn't like your avi. Let's face it EVERYTHING has the possibility of triggering SOMEONE. If someone doesn't like it they don't have to look at it. Point and click. "
