You know, I catch myself doing the weirdest thing when I'm posting here. Its to do with these smileys, you see. Or with adding those action brackets, like "<smiles>".
Like, what I catch myself doing is - I read a post, and it makes me grin or smile or laugh out loud. So I click "reply", and type some kind of answer like, "hey that made me really grin" - or I type something semi-witty myself - and then I'll type, "<smiles>" or "<grins>" or the like, or I'll click on a smiley and it appears. And the moment I do that, I actually smile or grin again myself too! Like, it wouldnt be sincere if I didnt do it the moment I wrote it, or something, or perhaps just some instinctive impulse or something.
So, am I crazy?
I think you are one crazy son of a bitch, yes.
<smiles>
Why did I feel like Letty when I did that "smiles" thing?
I think I will start inserting <similes>.
That will be my trademark and also establish as the craziest son of a bitch on board.
I like to insert similes and actually think of something that's like something else at the exact time that I'm inserting the simile, like a silly monkey. <simile>
Oh yeah. That is so satisfying. Like sex. <simile>
Like aren't you all Finnish or something? Where'd you learn to speak English so good and all? Wow freaky weird. You must be like totally smart or something!

Hold your dominion, Kicky.
I do <smiles> and <snorts> sometimes, and use a smiley not very often. I don't mind seeing them sometimes - beats ROFLing and LOLing to me. In real life, at least around some people who are as twisted as I am, I laugh out loud quite a bit. Hardly ever snort... at anything, or anything.
To answer your query, when I write <smiles>, I am probably frowning in an effort not to type it as <snukes>. When I type <snorts>, I am probably smiling at the concept of me snorting.
Have I started a trend, Gus? <smile>
Yeah, nimh. You're still crazy after all these years.

Ok, now I'm really smiling.
I have a question and this thread seems like be a good place to ask it.
The forthcoming image really bothers me. Well, maybe not the image itself, but rather the claim of "reinforcing the equity".
I'm sorry, but I just don't see it.
Anyone?
You should try the "ask me anything" thread but to be honest that guy hasn't answered anything.
<guffaws>
(And no, when I type out <guffaws> I dont really guffaw. I do more, like, a grin or something. Like, you know?)
