h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well... the offlicial explanaation of is "Now, we're sure we can leave it up to you to use this smiley responsibly. No rudeness or innuendo if you're playing with our 'Boing'...."

Hmmmmmmm!

Of course we'll use it responsibly!!

Can anyone think of a use for a smiley with a bit of spring in its step and dilated pupils?

:::Deftly ignores the innuendo:::

Aside from the fact that it *looks* like ET?

ET phone home!

That makes you think, doesn't it? Just what *was* ET looking for on Earth? Naughty little alien!

thank you for acknowledging me Lady Scott

I might have typo

I can't think of rude uses for it actually. Must be too innocent.

Abuse as in mis-use, since they are not used in the way they were meant originally. Just think of '' (A661547) as a way of breaking up long posts, '' or <> ...

It's funny, I actually saw the first posting (lurking) when was used in that manner and didn't think anything of it, I found it perfectly natural! As if it had been happening for years!!

Mel

Yes - using seems quite natural now - not that I ever write very long posts.

*waves back to Tube - excellent - I will await your new article with interest and anticipation. *

shazz <-- still promising so much below the line of vision

hmm, have you posted the comments on the sheep yet amy, I thought they were quite funny.

I'm glad I didn't do frisky, because it's more of a state of mind then an expresion.

No one has asked me about yet. I'm keeping my powder dry.
