Well, I made it actually. Sadly, its not as mysterious as it seems. Pineapples are lovely fruits (are they fruits?) and Hugh is (inarguably) a lovely person. The origin of the icon is based on just those two points really . . . it wasn't until after making it that I discovered his hair and the pineapple held a more than passing resemblance . . . That's the whole story, not much excitement. I'm a fan of absurdity (all in all the world, our existence, is extremely logical and to-the-point, mysteries only exist through us, otherwise a pineapple is just a pineapple) and I enjoy making people guess or speculate for themselves . . . Well, that was sort of a long, rambling answer, hope you don't mind. I remember your usual icon, the cupcake, and love it very much. It's your, and other people's, persistence in icon usage that urged me to settle on just one for myself. Not that I won't change it at one point. Thanks for the little bit of chat, I'm dealing with issues of boredom today (obviously).
