Emoticons

Not open for further replies.
Sometimes emoticons convey emotion just better than words can. Also, if emoticons are tacked on to the end of a sentence, you can usually tell if someone is being sarcastic or not.
 
Bad example:
I fucking hate you, you cunt.
This is flaming and therefor not right.

Correct example:
I fucking hate you, you cunt :)
This is OK to use, since the smiley wores the flame-effect off.

I think the second one might now sound like:
haha, I hate you.
I think ithe example is a bit extreme ;P
But I agree that without I smiley it would have been a lot worse.

Now now, how can you possibly hate emotes? ^^

They are just so joyful and nice. :p

And you can never have enough smilies. :)

Personally I find the use of them quite liberating. ^_^

I never feel quite alone as long as I have my smilie friends to back me up out of a tight spot. ;)

Know what I'm saying? ~_^

Anywhoo, I found this thread to be quite enjoyable. :D

And I also like your avatar, very stylish. :smile:

Toodles for now!

I'm off to play with my kittens. :3

:mwahaha:
