Yes, that is Bear from the ".hack//SIGN" anime. I identify with him as an old fart gamer surrounded by young punk gamers. I haven't adopted any comatose teenagers, though.

The Secret Origin Of Captain Button

Captain Button this is a superhero-style nickname friends gave me because of all the witty buttons I wore. I am not a real captain of any of the nautical, military, paramilitary, or industrial varieties.

I adopted it as my net.handle.

At one point if you asked a search engine for "captain button" I was maybe one third of the results, along with the European "discoverer" of Manitoba, and various false hits.

Then a real USAF Captain Craig Button died in a mysterious plane crash. 8~~~-({

And the psuedoscience crowd decided it was caused by alien mind rays from Area 51 or something.

The picture I want to put at the top of my profile, but I can't figure out how to get it to display without cutting off the top or the bottom.

I've tried making it taller, wider, narrower, etc. but can't get anything to work. What am I missing?

Edit: Doing this in a web browser on a PC, not any app.
