Use-Emoticons-Properly Day
I propose for a day where there are proper use of emoticons. Where the emoticon is not part of a word, not flashy. As you can see, the above is a snippet of a conversation with Mavis the aimless sotong.
The first line, at first glance, it looks so cryptic. And there are worse examples, like a game of pictionary. See the picture, guess the word.
So don't assign emoticons to commonly use words like 'la', 'hi', 'there', 'hello', 'you'. It looks cute only if it is not part of a word.
i could turn the emots off. but there are some people with more erm....quality emoticons(such a thing?) that deserve a second look.
