    If I may say, that actually is a really pretty bathroom (or "loo", in your language).

    Snakes and scorpions wandering around in NZ? Now that must have been really, really, really, (...) really, really, really, long ago.

    You know that outside of America that gesture is intended to be offensive?

    Yes.
    No, I don't know that. Though I don't mean to offend anyone by that, it's just a nickname given to me by TLD on the discord chat because I'm a big fan of Kanye West.

    Sorry if I offended anyone by that.

    The offensive gesture is the other way around, with the top of the hand facing the viewer. I was a kid when we moved from the UK to the USA and it took me a long time to get used to americans doing "peace" either way around (and to remember that they meant "peace" and not "eff off"/"victory")

    @SpinyLiving I love Toxel but Toxtricity is my least favorite Pokemon.

    He's since changed his avatar to reverse the hand.

    As I like to call the masterpiece, "The Palm Has Emerged....".

    I would also like to take this moment to apologize to my wall, who wasn't happy with me after this photo was taken. Neither was the rest of the bathroom but that's ok.

    Really? But Toxtricity is a really good Pokémon, and Toxel, while cute, is useless. Why do you hate it? (BTH my fav. is Zebstrika. Guess why)
