What? We have lots of other images that we're quite happy to use on user pages, like user photos. Not to mention user boxes, editor biographies, etc. Are they a waste of server space too? Obviously not. Wikipedia is edited by a community. Things that help build that community contribute to writing the encyclopedia. Conserving 105 kilobytes is not a reasonable justification for removing a darn good piece of community humour.
See my previous reply to jayjg. We're specifically talking about fair use here, not user pages in general.
