That is super awesome. Squared. Plus one.

(And this is the first time I've seen your user icon expanded. For some reason, I always thought that you were doing a jump kick while holding a megaphone. 100x100 pixels can be amusingly misleading that way.)

I would like to point out, however, that my Baxil deck scoffs at your Packbat deck. Maybe you need some Internet Memes to return the Baxils to their controllers' hands.

Oh, wait ...

It's fun, innit?

(And my user icon isn't even 100x100, so it's not surprising it's so confusing ndash; I don't think I even can do a jump-kick.)

I'm not that fond of Internet Memes for serious play, actually – I'd probably use a Flash-Based Game (http://farm.addictinggames.com/D78AQSAKQLQWI9/3461.swf) to keep it from untapping, instead. ;)

What in blazes is that thing, anyway, and what are you doing, in the picture? It's bigger now and I still can't suss it out.

It's a swing (http://packbat.livejournal.com/23161.html)!

Well, yeah, but what are you holding, and are you really swinging by locking your ankles around the center beam?

Well, you see, due to the particular geometry of this tree swing (the brown doodad with a rope through it on the left), one could climb up on the ordinary-style swingset (that wooden thing on the right) to hop off from a greater altitude. (i.e. the swing is the bit on the left – on the right is just the metaphorical platform.)

The above was one of my attempts to get back on.

A-ha! I see it now. I hadn't spotted the big white line going out to the top-left of the image; without that, the picture begins to look very strange.

Incidentally, if you blow the image up large enough, there appears to be a camouflaged mallard resting its chin on the rope swing rope, about halfway up.

Such is the nature of my imagination.

For the record, "ndash;" was supposed to be "–" = "–". :(
