Are Smileys Gay?

[dune]

n.b when I say gay i mean happy, and therefore sad.

 

Discuss.

I think they are sad when used excessively, and I really don't like the loling one anymore because it's like a gormlous lol - like you wouldn't expect at all from RobskII, but I do think the rolly eyes is an improvement on the old "tripping your tits off" rolley eyed model. As for the others I cannot at present think of any I like (but may well do when i've finnished writing this and access them - in fact i'll go advanced and do it now....

Smileys are as bad as excessive punctuation. Far too many threads ruined by plebs going "...I was there!!!!!!" and "..dont you think???!??!?!!?!?" on the main bored.

Stop being so homophobic, we're talking about gay smileys, and then some numbnuts turns this into an issue of sexuality. If I wanted to chant about my hanging basket of pansies i'd expect you to keep the topic on gardening, or I i wanted to complain about the poof DFS delivered being a different shade of beige to the sofa i'd expect you to try to keep the topic on furniture, of if i wanted to tell you about the time i went on bender and sang a white sahder of pale at the royal oak kareoke i'd expect you to keep the subject on making a **** of yourself when ****ed, or if i wanted to talk about rear entry and have a ****ing good moan about the management at work enforcing walkways (where the ****s can monitor how long you have for break under the guise of safety - cvnts) would it be too much to ask that you focussed on works, or i i wanted to talk about the time I saw frankie detori eating a sauasage (he's a jokey btw) whilst perapring to the enter the stall we could maybe stick to racing. Timmy stop being such a ****ing child.
