aero recently pointed out that I have no avatar and he seems to think I should since I'm Dominator. I've considered it briefly on multiple occasions but have never come up with anything satisfactory.

So...

In order to give my subordinates some sense of agency I am opening up the creation and choice of my avatar to the 'democratic' process:

-First, all are free to nominate an image along with a haiku justifying its worthiness.
-Those nominees will then be put to a vote.
-I will then exercise my supreme Dominator veto power to decide if the vote matters to me or not.

Any takers?

To get a better idea before i make a suggestion, where did the name slackbatter come from?

I believe it's a north American corruption of the English 'slack bladder'. For this reason I've always had a certain amount of sympathy for the man and explains why he's often, suddenly and dramatically, finishing games off before running to the bathroom.

I don't recall the exact origins of the name, just remember some friends and I used to include the phrase "firing some slackbatter onto the griddle" in our conversations on a regular basis back in high school. It seemed to be a euphemism for doing pretty much anything.

Huh i never really thought of pancake batter. I always imagined you were a baseball finatic. 

Baseball idea- bat connecting with ball name on bat.

Pancake batter- slinging batter on the griddle name on the side of griddle.

I am no artist sorry. Paint loses all potential when it enters my possession.
