I think YES.


If it is, then the first pic he looks like the guy in Office Space. I can never remember his name, 'cause it doesn't really matter. But that's what struck me.
Doesn't look like I'd imagine, but then I can't quite imagine what he'd look like. I never manage that.
Whenever people tell me things, like one of my ex's who was getting radiotherapy and asked me when she lost her hair if that's what I'd imagine she'd look like... I was like, I can't picture people, either as they would look like with an alteration, or if I haven't met them and try to picture them.
I'ma stop rambling and go eat.

Nice place they have in that second picture.

Yeah, there was a discussion on the old board about those pics.

It is indeed Mr. Onstad when he was in college a few years ago.

It's sort of like a DJ. You always picture them kind of cool and they are these fat funny looking guys. Not that Onstad is fat in these. He's just a seemingly regular guy. Like everybody.

The one pic looks like he's wearing a chef uniform. Does he cook? He seems to know a lot about food and drink.

I am not fat! If anything I'm completely the opposite... But I don't look all cool or anything.
You can kind of see where hs wit might come from in those pictures, but at the same time, he looks too like a bunch of dumb people I once knew that it kind of makes me expect him not to be funny from the pictures!

I'll bet he's a real dork in real life.

In any case, 'stad is funny on the internet.  And since that is the limit of how much you will ever know Mr. 'stad, that's all that really matters, isn't it?

Well, OK, I should amend my statement. The DJs who aren't fat look kind of like Ric Ocasek...all weird-skinny and strung-out-like.

Except for you, slink. From now on I picture you as Dr Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati.

Yeah, pretty much exactly how I expected him to look, too. Odd.

And who's sayin' big dorks aren't exciting people to hang out with in real life? Why, just last night I graded my students' algebra tests, and today I bought a new penis and a sweater vest. You don't know from fun!

Thought he'd be blonder.  The Scandinavian name and all.

I thought he'd have two heads.

That, and be far less dorky.

Wow, I can see where he got the idea for hat week.  And to think, he once picked on Pedro for owning a fedora during a private chat!  

I pictured him less handsome, actually.  Sort of a lumbering, gorilla-like, odiferous graphics geek who forgets to bathe regularly.  He's not bad looking, if I have to be the one to say it, although his features are a bit too...delicate...for my taste.  And he looks tall.  Either that, or he just has short friends.  (I'm totally into short guys.)  

As for Slink, I always pictured him as slim and tall, with sandy brown hair, fair skin, and blue eyes.  Although I have a tendancy to base what I think people look like on their avatars.  Not that I think Slink looks like his avatar, whatever the hell that is, or that AlohaDawg is a dancing monkey, but rather that there are categories of people in my head that correspond to categories of avatars.  Goofy avatars, geeky avatars, cutesy avatars, etc.  Beyond that, how I picture people is really sort of inexplicable.

So Slink looks more like Andy Travis than Dr Johnny Fever? Or am I the only person who watched WKRP enough to remember them clearly?
