Yeah, that is kind of funny - maybe it's something about being something else on the internet? Also, I really don't think it's a frightening image, but that's ok. I like icons where the girl looks out at the viewer, and I like that she seems confrontational/direct/vaguely aggressive, cuz it feels like she's holding her own. The milkshake for me is like an ironic pop culture Americana icon - same with the diner/restaurant she appears to be in. Like it goes with the picture on my profile page. And it's not an urban icon.
That makes sense. It's not what I necessarily think of when I see it, but that makes sense.
