Where do I find these?

This is from my phone, but it should be similar on a laptop/desktop:

Click your profile pic/name

Click your number of points

Voilà!
 
I got similar to Windigo and Tasty. Haven't checked yet to see if avatar has changed at all.

ETA: I don't think anything has changed in my avatar.

All mine looks the same although I did get a bunch of trophies and it says I got an avatar, IDK. It's fine.
 
An avatar is you profile picture, nothing more. The points are "added an avatar". If you qualify for that when trophy is made, you get the points.
It isn't because a change to your avatar was made yesterday. It is because I created that trophy yesterday.

It is to try to encourage new members to add an avatar. (Those that don't are typically those who are not going to be around for long and get zapped).
 
I’m afraid I’m going to whinge loudly so you might want to skip this post!

I WANT THE BUILDER TO FINISH THE BL**DY JOB AND GO AWAY!
It was supposed to take 7 days (allowing ten for rain) and he is deliberately dragging this job out because he doesn’t want to be at home. Which is sad and I have sympathy for his predicament BUT we’re now tipping into the fourth week.
I’ve never seen someone work so slowly ever!

He does have another job to go to but said “I like it here, it’s nice, I feel comfortable.”

🙄 It’s like I’ve got some annoying relative staying that I can’t get rid of!

And to cap it all off I feel quite mean that I find his way of working (or should that be not working) so flippin’ irritating!

Seriously just get on with it man!!

Sounds like when they were converting my garage into my house. Took me a minute to realize this was everyone's "weekend endeavor". 😬

Quit feeding him!

I’ve not fed him. He’s a newly diagnosed diabetic and is desperately trying to lose weight so everything I’ve offered he has turned down which is good because I would have made a massive rod for my own back!

He arrives around 10am has a cup of tea and then disappears off for breakfast returning 1-2 hours later for more tea, then he stops at 1pm for lunch and when he returns does practically nothing apart from look at his phone. Sometimes he just sits in his car.

I ignored him completely yesterday because he knows it’s Mr SSOAP’s birthday so has been hanging around all weekend.
It’s Sunday, no self respecting builder works on a Sunday and yet he’s here again mooching about!

I get the impression he would like me n Mr SSOAP to take him in. He’s not the first stray to try and stay but this man has a wife and two small children he clearly spends no time with which I don’t like 😞
