When push comes to shove

If you've been reading this blog for a bit, you'll know that my avatar on Stars is a picture of Yokosuna Asashoryu. The image is similar to, if not exactly, this one:

I get comments from time to time, often disparaging after delivering a beat, and less frequently, a nod of recognition. I get "lose some weight," and similar remarks regarding body fat. Even someone with an avatar of Peter Griffin of "Family Guy" has taken a swipe. I heard fat jokes all of my childhood (until I whipped the class bully's ass), so I readily brush the idiocy aside. Someone took a new approach this evening.

I had just hit quads after a boat on the turn and he paid. But he couldn't let it go.
Vahlgren said, "oh miss sorry dident c your pic..."

This chat took place in the middle of this hand, and he is the villain:

Serves him right for dissing the sumo man.
