Question I know I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer

But, I've noticed little grey balls next to each person's avatar. Does anyone know why, what and how do about them? Since nobody else has asked, I figured you were waiting for me to ask.

Thumbs up

Mine says "Rufus is a genius" when I point to it with my cursor. He's the first person who noticed, and commented, as far as I know. :right:

First off

1) SRX, if you have balls you have destroyed my image of you.... :insane: (I picture a white "Rupal" )

2) Joe, they only look that small next to the tower of Power....

:ballons:

Well, that clears things up for me. How about you guys? As for Joe's balls, let's not go there. And Sniper, your short, but, to the point discription made me blush, and I'm a black man, son of a poor disinfrachised share croper! Whitey been oppressing me since day one. I'm an angry black man!
