You of all people ought to know that your avatar is neither male or female, so how on earth could you refer to it as "he"? My feelings against that avatar are not directed toward Benedict Cumberbatch, but towards that particular picture of him. It is, in my own words, quite terble and a disgrace to the actor. You are throwing stones from a glass house, since you just used a made-up word. The picture is of a man, and we were talking about Sherlock in general as well, so it was easy enough to say "he" without thinking about it much. Now, as for the avatar, it cannot be "terble", as that is not a word. I fail to see how it is a disgrace to the actor, notwithstanding your claims. Just because you personally don't like a particular picture does not mean it is a disgrace to the actor. My use of the "word" terble instead of terrible was merely an impersonation of a known dialect used frequently on this and many other sites Internet-wide. I used the term in jest and mockery, and expected you and any other person reading it to understand what it was I said. Secondly, the name of this thread is "Your Avatar," thus the avatar, which is genderless and ought to be referred to as "it," is the subject of the conversation. Thirdly, the particular picture you chose as your avatar is not a good picture of the actor for several reasons; He looks like he's about to sneeze or he's sick or something and his eyes look all cold and glassy, don't ask me why. Also, the picture is devoid of any background and he looks like he has been cropped out of something, the edges around his hair and face look unnatural.
