I couldn't resist the urge to submit this. I'm curious to see how many people are offended into giving it a '1' vote.

The title has multiple meanings to me. I recently discovered that the middle finger represents the big brother in Japan. At a young age, a big brother might inflict all manner of torture onto his younger siblings. In Orwell's "1984", Big Brother could dish it out.

Could use some sharpening.

Love the matching horns on your eye brows. It would've been a 10 from me had I voted, purely for that expression.

Now I understand the hairdo. Nurse saliva!


Nurse saliva - that is nearly as funny as the photo!

Well, I've reported this image as dnmc as I reckon if your IQ is under 16 that counts as a child (7)

DNMC, seriously. This Strikeslip clone obviously has the mental age of a toddler. Plus the teeth look dangerous and they scare me. The gleam in the eyes is positively demented. I worry about you, slippy. If you need help, just dial 1-800-OMY GAWD...

Yuk-Yuk! I love it! You are the master!

Added: Hoping this does not get DQ'd for the obscene gesture. I admire the sheer cajones in entering this.

Added: I like what you've done with your hair. Who's your stylist?

Added: Quote:"The nurses were kissing me on the forehead and cracking me up before I went under general"
