My (possible) misconceptions about emoticons

Recommended Posts

1. Guys should not reply to one another with ;).
2. :S has a negative connotation and is not friendly.
3. Everytime I put :D after one of my posts, I feel egotistical.
4. In the weekend numbers thread, :) means you got laid, not that you didn't (as it is always sarcastic in my eyes).

That's all. Agree or disagree?

1. No, that's ok.

2. Can go either way. It can be used jokingly.

3. You should only feel egotistical if you're the only one who thinks it's funny.

4. Wrong. >:( means you got laid!

[:/]...no I didn't get any, haven't had any since Jesus walked the earth and probably won't get any until after he returns

Besides, I never kiss and tell anyway.:P
My reality and yours are quite different.

See, to me, anything but "0", :|, [:/], :(, >:(, or :S means you got some. :D

Damn, I'm such an egotistical bitch.



So when I posted :):4:1 in last weekend's numbers thread, if you read that and thought that *I* got laid, then...nah, no way you read that!!!!!

Meh. I think ;) is as close to "just fuckin' with you man" as these emoticons get. I don't think it's always flirty - it's sometimes an acknowledgement that you're kidding, sarcastic, "there ya have it"... and so on. Pretty open to interpretation.

2. :S= "It was fucked up" or "can you b'lieve that shit?" or "you're crazy" or "Aghhhh! I'm going crazy!" You see where I'm going...

3. I put :D when I actually laugh, mostly. Or to indicate that I would laugh at that point in the conversation. Why do you feel egotistical? Like you're laughing at your own joke?

4. Yep.

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

Unless you got it on with a sexy :S bitch over the weekend

I like to start my day off with a little Ray of Soulshine™!!

1. Guys only reply to each other with ;) if they're trying to pretend their response wasn't sarcastic.

2. :S Can also mean I'm really fucking confused!

3. :D should be after every post that doesn't have to do with death, illness or injury (unless the injury is really funny)

4. :) in the weekend numbers thread can also mean it's no one's business if I got laid or not.

5. I don't know. I lost 5. :|

6. :o:P:o:P:o:P:o:P:o:P means blow job.

I use :| for "Go ahead, believe me, I'm totally serious. And if you believe me, the joke's on you."

or "You have GOT to be kidding"

or "I'm actually serious."

I use that for, "I'm really not saying what I want to say right now, but if I say what I want to say, I'll have to be banned."

Can you ban yourself?

Good question! I just clicked on the magic buttons under my name...looks like I can! If that ever happens, you'll know I'm really, really drunk. :ph34r:
