Timeless. Emoji's take too much time and have less "soul".

Faces of different people after the party drugs hit

Summoning the most kawaii demon

Homer Simpsons pulling wishbone

Person organizing a line of dildos

Pedobears

People looking for missing glass eye of first person

Whenever a sentence needs some indicator of humor or sarcasm, I reach for :p

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 17 points 5 months ago

I'll do a ;) most of the time for humor.

I still miss the old :S from the msn days. Nothing really conveys the same emotion nowadays

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 19 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I used (and still sometimes use) o_O for the same reaction

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 30 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Nice humblebrag about still feeling emotions.

Who am I to say that one can make a file in the home folder called .XCompose where you can easily input emoticons for easy access using the compose key ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯

";-;" conveys a fundamentally different vibe as compared to 😭, even if both nominally mean "crying"

Same for ":)" vs. 🙂

It makes me sad that in many chat programs anymore, expressing joy or general contentment with "carat-underscore-carat" is no longer supported.

Alas, even here

Shows as "sup" between angle brackets. :(

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago (5 children)

Apparently in some other languages they just use ))) or some crazy number of parentheses, like )))))))

It shouldn't bug me as much as it does, but c'mon, it doesn't even look like a face!

[–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 9 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Chat prompts, like some IRC clients used to, suffix nicknames with a : to separate message from the name, so it could be they simply implied the "eyes" were already there.

Bloodninja: )))))

Oh God it's me... I'm old now.

I don't like the pictures... I always prefer to use text except for when something really disgusts me, then I happen to like "🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮"
