Why your avatar?

Yesterday evening I decided that I would finally have an avatar. Took me 20 minutes to decide what I wanted. Obviously something not super identifiable like my pet, but a nod at loving what I do.

TOOTH WITH GLASSES.

Literally what I googled last night. Elementary school teeth visits make me happy, and I have some hefty framed glasses. (Not because my prescription is hefty... I was a hipster in college and thought my chunky frames were cool and alternative, but also expensive, so I'm getting my money's worth of wearing them ahaha)

    I look at members' names and the image of an avatar comes to mind.

    Perhaps a visiting tooth?

    That may be true, but I have misophonia, I can't stand to listen to anyone chew! I can't eat or drink with headphones in either.

    I also have misophonia. I cannot tell you how blown away I was to hear that this was an actual condition when I first read about it. I hit every symptom on the head- onset around age 12, avoiding gathering where there is eating, stealthily trying to block out sound by covering an ear or making a small noise to myself. Misophonia honestly affects every aspect of my life. I eat lunch alone at work to avoid eating with others, I avoid buying crunchy snacks at home, I leave the room at social gatherings if someone is chewing loudly, I won't go see a movie if it is going to be crowded because I have to be able to switch seats if I am by someone who is crunching popcorn.

    There is no polite way to say to anyone "Hey, the way you are chewing is bothering me because I have a condition that causes rage and initiates the fight or flight response when I hear the sound"

    My avatar needs no explanation.

    I have a T-shirt I wear to school sometimes that says the same thing.

    I tried to upload a picture of my cat to use as mine but I couldn't figure out how to get it to the right size.

    You're current avatar is very fitting, kidzcare, in how you spell your username and the kind of wild looking kid.

    It relays someone a little unconventional, but caring.

    But, seriously, my cat is like SUPER cute!

    I can manage if I am also eating or drinking, but after I have finished, oh no. Do not drink that milk while I am at the table doing school work.

    I play music in the clinic, which helps with any noise here.

    Davey Do...

    So what would you do for my AN name?

    Mine is for the love of anime and japan stuff, so that's my avatar. :3

    Mine is too tiny to read, but it "speaks" the God's honest truth.

    If you want an avatar where you could read the words, you could use this one:

    However, this seems more fitting to you username, SaltineQueen!

    My Avatar is in honor of "Hammy" , a second grades class pet who went on a epic journey rivaling "finding nemo", escaping his cage only to end up weeks later in a little ones gym shoe. Find the thread "The hamster is loose", if you'd like the whole story!

    I remember Hammy. Farawyn called my attention to him.

    He was a real man on the town swinger!

    The Artwork on my Avatar is a Davey Original for which I am forever grateful. My screen name which inspired the avatar is because I was bad and am undergoing a "spanking" like bad boys should
