If anyone draws Stan naked, then for the record I think that if he has chest hair, it'll be in the shape of an S, either by nature or design. Just sayin'.
I think it would be funnier if his whole body was "S" type hairs also staying in the same place in ref to background as he moves

No, no, you've got it all wrong! Actually, his jacket is see through, it's his body that's plaid and a fixed texture.
More seriously, for anyone to notice his hairs not moving while he does, it would need to be a video rather than a drawing. Not that I'd object to that, but that sounds like a lot of work.
Not that I've got anything against same-sex marriage, it's just that I'm still uncommon to two men calling themselves "husbands" or two women "wifes".
I've hear unmarried same-sex couples refer to each other that way, but I guess it might depend on where you live.
It's like twins saying "my twin", you're not likely to ask "which of the two?". A guy saying "my husband", you won't go "wait, which one is he talking about, they're both male!" since the other one is talking to you right now.
I realise you didn't say it was the reason why it was less used, but that's the only thing I could think of...
Anyway, it doesn't really matter. I do agree "my sugnificant other" is pretty common in English for same-sex couples, seemingly due to being gender-neutral (although it could be for some other reason), and since there is no equivalent in French, it only makes sense people would either say "boy/girlfriend" or "husband/wife", depending on the status of their relationship.
I'm trying to picture S-shaped chest hair, and the only thought that comes to mind is that it would make him kinda Superman-like >.>
A dollar sign might work better. I know they're not using dollars, but I don't know the symbol for pieces of eight, and it seems obvious to me that Stan has so many Ss in his name because S looks like $.
(Or am I the only one imagining it?)
No, no, you've got it all wrong! Actually, his jacket is see through, it's his body that's plaid and a fixed texture.
But that's the joke. If his jacket texture stays in the same place, why shouldn't his body texture do the same?
same-sex couples
Weeeeeeeell, I wouldn't want to start a debate on that in a forum about disturbing MI fanart... Or would I? (PM )
But just to wrap up the essential:

Strangely enough, it's rare that I've ever heard any of those addresses. But there is a current debate in Canada on whether there should be a politically correct term "my other" in reference to a same sex relative, or should the classic ones be used yet. I just don't go into it, I prefer playing MI instead
[...] and since there is no equivalent in French, it only makes sense people would either say "boy/girlfriend" or "husband/wife", depending on the status of their relationship.
Actually... You're right. In Quebec they just refer to each other as "my spouse", so that it doesn't offend anyone either. Guess it's the only best way to say it, if you ever want to avoid confusion.

Hey btw, why didn't he ever write his name "$tan" at least once? This guy's a living wallet, it's unacceptable that the "S" is his name has never been a ref to the buck sign!
But there is a current debate in Canada on whether there should be a politically correct term "my other" in reference to a same sex relative, or should the classic ones be used yet.
But as you pointed out yourself, "my spouse" is already gender-neutral... oh well, I have to admit I don't follow these things either. Didn't realise there was a debate about that.

Well technically dollars don't exist yet, is what I figured. So they're being more subtle about it. Like they talk about Ye Bay but not actually E-Bay, and stuff.
Of course there could always be a joke of a sign of his getting damaged, and the S becomes crossed, for instance as he's painting it something makes him trip and he slashes the S accidentally.
He'd be upset at first but then he'd go "you know what, I kinda like it that way".
That could be nice as a comic strip or something, if anyone wants to give it a try...
I guess it's not disturbing, but if it really has to be, just dress him in a disturbing way or make him sing a disturbing song while he's painting, or something.
(This thread is giving me so many ideas, I love it).
EDIT: OR, he's standing in front of the sign, admiring his work, with the brush in his hand. Guybrush arrives, Stan turns to face him, starts talking to him....
And slash! across the S.
RE-EDIT: Well, nobody has posted and I don't want to double-post...
So I was told that "disturbing" could mean "seeing a character in a different way" (for instance in a sexy way).
AND we were talking about Stan.
And I was bored.
So behold! Sexy Smilin' Stan S. Stanman!
A couple of things:
- I don't have a scanner, so as must be obvious, it's a picture of a sketch. Sorry for the quality, if I find a scanner, I'll scan it.
- My paper was damages so I had to use the corner. So you can only see part of him, and not his flailing arms. I'm sorry! Just imagine he's moving them, ok? (Or don't. But this is the Disturbing fanart thread after all).
"Can I interest you in a previously-owned... salesman?"
I did not draw this, but I am a terrible, TERRIBLE influence.
Jen: HE WILL BE THE PRETTIEST PIRATE.
Jen: NO FULL SKIRTS. NO MODESTY. FRILLS ONLY. FINAL DESTINATION.
*****: OH GOD I JUST REMEMBERED THAT LINE FROM EPISODE 4
*****: FROM STAN
*****: "...right down to the lacy garter belt!"
*****: "Hey! I only wore that once..."
Jen: THE PLOT THICKENS.
this thread is the funniest thing i've seen since...yesterday. but that was the funniest thing I'd seen in months, so its just bad timing that I saw this second.
It's only funny if you played a certain rpg that came out a few months ago, and it pretty spoilerific. So rather than distract from the true purpose of this thread, just pm me if you want a link.
Haha man, I love that! I've always been intrigued by how Guybrush managed to fit so much rubbish inside his coat (or pants) and have always thought about the concept of actually seeing how he does it.
I think he stores things in his coat in Tales and Revenge, pants for Curse and Escape, pockets or pants for Secret (pockets are a subset of pants anyway).
What us Brits call pants, you call underwear, so every time I'm reading this, bad things enter my head for a second then I check myself, remembering you lot are American!
The French word culotte used to mean a type of trousers, but now means panties.
Not the singular, in French things aren't plural just because you put two legs through them (I assume that's why bottom clothes are plural in English?).
I find it interesting that this kind of thing would be the case in both English and French without an obvious connexion.
It's obvious that he puts stuff everywhere, not only into one of his clothes. Just watch all those animations, and you will notice that. For instance, Elaine's dog goes into his coat, and the "monkey head key" goes into his pants. Both of which are a bit too big for real life clothes anyways.
If anyone draws Stan naked, then for the record I think that if he has chest hair, it'll be in the shape of an S, either by nature or design. Just sayin'.
Why don't give hime a symbol of his salesman libido?
I wonder...Can anyone do something with the cannibles (Lemonhead, et al) eating Guybrush and make it SFW? Also, and I realize I am sick and twisted, but what about doing something with Dinghy Dog and LeChimp?

I'm so glad that you have uploaded all these photos, videos and above all the drawings (Sister Agnes and LeChuck, the most). Ma dearest Beekay84 said a picture ... well, that I leave here so that you look what you did not have DA account. http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2009/349/c/a/ToMI__A_secret_to_keeps_by_Eriath.jpg
I leave you also a pin up sketch: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2009/364/a/8/Tales_of_MI__Elaine_n_Morgan_by_Eriath.jpg
Greetings, and enjoy!
Holy dislocated knee, Batman!
Would you mind sharing what you saw yesterday?

I might fix some coloring stuff later, but for now I'm too tired to really notice any major problems.
lessons learned. feathers aren't fun to color.
A look into the contents of Guybrush's jacket.
Haha man, I love that! I've always been intrigued by how Guybrush managed to fit so much rubbish inside his coat (or pants) and have always thought about the concept of actually seeing how he does it.
Tell the truth I always thought he shoved the things in his pants.
most would say in his pockets, I say in his pants
Have you ever seen him pick up the ramrod or serrated knife? Definitely in his pants.
Yes, I know it's a Strong Bad quote...
trousers, generally.
THAT IS AMAZING. The colours are great too! Clearly I need to suggest more things for you to draw...

That page also links to a meme of Guybrush/Stan, which caused the person to make that picture in the first place. (The meme is done in paint).
Time to cut down on those volcano shots?

Trousers, or jeans if they're made of denim. It's pretty normal to call jeans trousers too, though.
Technically, "trousers" is the name for smart pants specifically, but we British have no regard for this fact.
I'm not sure why I know that.
