have you noticed how only the idiots here use smilies

[SultanOfSurreal]

in earnest, that is.

like, you'll never see snorri, neoteny, player, etc. ending a post with or quoting a well-reasoned point and rebutting with , or quoting their own side's rambling thousand-word diatribes just to add fifty s.

but not a day goes by when rockfist, gabon, john, trollscotty, or whoever, doesn't pump out a metric fuckton of emoticons like a malnourished child making shoes at a taiwanese sweatshop

i wonder why that is

thanks thaiguy for getting the most banal and predictable reply possible out of the way early

you have a real knack for this though so i suppose it shouldn't be surprising

[rockfist]

like I don't know, maybe its because we like, are so like unsophisticated in our like vocabulary that we like have to use emotes because we are like preteens or something like that

ahahaha, do you of all people really want to get into a discussion about which one of us has a larger vocabulary and a better grasp on language and usage

you seem to fly under the radar of the mods. this feeble attempt at flaming would've earned me a 6 month forum ban.

if flaming is what you crave, then you should visit cosmicoutpost.com . however, i feel that having your safety blanket here, which is akin to fighting a man with his hands tied behind his back and his trousers round his ankles whilst being attached to a morphine drip is surely an advantage you will not dare walk away from.

just saying...

Nothing wrong with a knowing at the end of a post. Not all the time, use it sparingly and all that, but I think they have their place.

However, a feeble joke with a does annoy. It just screams "So you know I'm trying to make a joke, right?"

I'd never noticed the smileys before -

[Neoteny]

You know, now that you've admitted to it irritating the piss out of you, they're only going to do it more.

I do believe that those that do NOT show at least SOME emotion may be robots. One must be on one's guard.

this would seem very disrespectful to the handicap children of the world very bigoted...

[john9blue]

Smileys show emotion... the Internet sucks at portraying emotion... therefore I use smilies.

I'd use a "mooning" smiley.
And of course this guy hasn't had walkies for a while...

[Neoteny]

Oh suggs, it's been awhile.

if you can't write well enough to convey a certain tone with only your text, you need to learn to write better. herman melville never used a single smiley to write moby dick and that book is like a billion pages

Hello, suggs, this is where you go to, huh?
