The story/ reason behind your profil picture

For long time I had this profile picture, that I use for my flight simulations, it’s the marking of an italian WWII air attack unit, a red devil.

But recently I changed that for the pictures of this smiling german paratrooper, sporting a captured Bren. I was moved by his smile, and I always wondered whether he survived the war.

Back in 2008 when my older cousin had gotten a ps3, he let me create an account on his system. Took about a solid 30-45 minutes to think of my name and so it was born. From there I used it on just about everything, starting with steam.

I then looked for a cool-looking chicken in images and this armored chicken was the best one I could find. Apparently its from some game that no longer exists but I have saved the picture to apply to everything I ever need it for.

The ol’ Chickendoodles (or chickydoodles if theres a character limit lol)

I switch from time to time. Right now I have real life Popeye. Simply because both that guy and cartoon Popeye were there in ww2 (cartoon Popeye even took part in it in some episodes)

Before I had another Cartoon who served during ww2. Donald is one of the (if not THE) only fictional character having received military decorations and awards.

First one was a French Canadian hero, who had balls of steel and was the very definition of pirate ninja. He was a sharpshooter who lost an eye due to shrapnel but “I only need one good eye”. He then liberated villages from German garrisons by himself, during night by doing as much noise as he could and throwing grenades left and right to make germans believe a large force was attacking… so they all surrendered to… a single man. Leo Major.

Default icon is the perfect one to me. If they have to let me upload a profile icon, then I will save the current default icon and reupload it.
It’s the most neutral one IMO. And I do it to all of my accounts.

My Popeye looks much more friendly! Probably stronger too when eating proper greens.

But does he look this cool:

Mega necro but

My pfp is a Tau Fire Warrior from Warhammer 40k. I started liking WH40k when I played the PS2 game “Fire Warrior” and loved it ever since.

The actual picture is something my girlfriend made for me, she rocks

Considering it has been necro-ed already - I painted mine myself, and use it pretty much everywhere.
