My favorite MacNN smiley is

It really sums up how I feel. I mostly laugh, although not in a "haha" sort of way.

What is your favorite MacNN smiley?

BlueSky · Apr 1, 2007, 03:49 PM

The little guy's just so damn cute.

Railroader · Apr 1, 2007, 03:55 PM

is nice. It describes me to a t.

Chuckit · Apr 1, 2007, 04:32 PM

I am fond of

. More because I think it's a well-designed smily than because I think it describes me. If I were describing myself, it would probably be

, because I'm classy like that.

subego · Apr 1, 2007, 05:20 PM

Popcorn smiley.

Edit: well, it should be on MacNN.

And the runner-up is: this thread is useless without pics.

This has nothing to do with you, but I've always gotten just the slightest hint of "****-off" from that smiley.

Am I the only one?

I think it's unfortunate that you think that.

To me it says: "All is good. And I am happy".

Face Ache · Apr 1, 2007, 09:29 PM

I like the

combo to signify I'm joking.

People are too quick to read things the wrong way 'round here.

TheoCryst · Apr 1, 2007, 09:37 PM

Well, since I know it doesn't really mean what I think it looks like, I can usually edit out my impression and take it for what it means.

If anything, it just discourages me from using it.

It's hard to describe exactly the feeling I get from it. Maybe it would be more accurate to say the smiley looks like it just got away with something. I think the eyes being closed has something to do with it. At least, I assume they're closed, since it's the same eyes from the sleepy smiley.

Lest you think I overanalyze... Okay, I am.

Edit: I am on a board though where there is a raging debate over whether

constitutes a personal attack.

nope this is a smiley thread. so far we're broken the macnn record of this not becoming about politics, religion or personality clashes.

Why aren't there any ethnic smilies?

starman · Apr 2, 2007, 01:26 PM

I can't find my favorite; I thought I saved it somewhere. It's the one where the one smiley's pointing and laughing at the other one.

This is what happens when there's no affirmative action.
