Someone please explain this DU Icon


This is the icon you use to ignore someone (PLEASE DON'T CLICK IT ON ME PRETTY PLEASE!!!!)

But he looks like he's fallen down and he's sleeping. But not sleeping in a bed or a sofa but right there on the floor.

Did he drink too much and just fall down? Was he working to hard and is trying to catch some ZZZs. Or did someone push him and he thought "I'm on the floor so I might as well take a nap"

What do you think this guy represents?

3. Maybe it represents sleeping with the fishes.
If you ignore someone, they are "sleeping with the fishes", i.e. dead to you. :shrug:

9. LOL!
We could give it symbolism. We all like to ignore GWB, the drunk who falls down alot. I go for the "symbolic ignore".

I have never looked at it that closely and it is funny!
