Smilies that you despise...

To curb the eventual flooding from the Cafe clan, you gotta follow the following two pieces of instructions:

  1. WHY you hate them? At least state in a sentence, but don’t go over a paragraph length to explain a simple question asked.

  2. List only 3, yes only 3, yes only 3.

I’ll start:

:d6c: - This one is thrown out like good for nothing celebrities churn out x-rated home videos to take away attention from their otherwise lackluster careers. Really grinds my gears when it’s used to admire an underwhelming post just cuz the person voiced an opinion similar to yours.
:chai: - Now popular media has always perpetuated the image of a serene, witty, humorous patriarch of the family hiding behind the newspaper and tea adding their often-sought but rarely given nuggets of wisdom. Imagine then my disappointment when this simile often follows unwisely pieces of utterance.

:rolleyes: - As long as its not used in reference to me, its all good, in fact very emphatic. If you want to show your absolute derision for something, type no more, just post this.

Re: Smilies that you despise…

Aww, I think you’re a cut above the rest of the clan!

Where is the sentence long description?

Re: Smilies that you despise…

No, I meant, I gave you the Diwana salute for coming up with this thread. :hehe:

But on topic, yes the " :slight_smile: " smilie is the most annoying because it comes off has highly sarcastic and smug, and though sometimes people do use it genuinely, it’s pretty much been spoiled over the years to mean a variety of insults. They range from “I disagree with you because you are stupid” to “go blankety blank yourself”.

Re: Smilies that you despise...

It is soo sad how :) is ruined forever!! Even when I see innocent people using it.........their post just looks soo sarcastic and rude.

Re: Smilies that you despise…

This is almost a paragraph :).

j/k. I agree sometimes the connotations are not that smiley or friendly.

Re: Smilies that you despise…

  1. :@: (self explanatory)

2.:chai: whatever you said and that people utter cow excreta and think that putting this at the end somehow makes them smarter than the rest

  1. “the jumping around ninja turtle” (i don’t know how to put it).. its just super duper ghay

Re: Smilies that you despise…

Oh come on, I love jumping turtle. It’s cute and really conveys the excitement in an adorable way. :sadiyah:
What you got against the googly eyes? They say what can’t be said in words, ask any poet.

Re: Smilies that you despise...

googly eyes, nope. they have a new name. start with an S and ends with an A.

Re: Smilies that you despise...

Queer I'm surprised you don't have your own smiley devoted to you by now :@:

Re: Smilies that you despise…

:muzna:cause it gives me such painful feeling and remind me of Doctor “child_molestor” Shaukat.

Re: Smilies that you despise...

:TLK:....oh wait.... :(

Re: Smilies that you despise...

I dont have a smilie under my name.

Re: Smilies that you despise…

the annals of gs history is witness to my many protests against the proliferation of smilies.

there used to be a time when gs had only a dozen smilies, and most people knew how to read and write sentences. there used to be paragraphs. funny ones. sensible ones. sounds like a fairytale now, i know. :teary1:

Re: Smilies that you despise…

can I butt in and add this thread of mine to the list?
