Official Petition for New Emoticon

Just had to give this a shot since I think this emoticon rocks and can be used in such a variety of places and situation it should not be missing from any forum.



Yay or nay?

WTF is it meant to be?

And, yes, I looked at the filename and saw that it was meant to be emo. I don't get why. And, frankly, emo culture and emo-bashing is soooo 2007. Stop living in the past, Havoc.

It's called emo but it's mostly used as a emoticon that looks to be crying of laughter.

It looks like it's crying blood.

Also, either it's got patches on the corner, or some crappy jpeg artifacts. Either way, not pretty.

I came in expecting a proposal to replace the grey emoticon set we have, and trying to keep open minded about that idea. I don’t like this emoticon. Artifacts aside (they can be cleaned up), this just doesn’t stand out as what it’s meant to, whether that’s emo or tears of laughter. Emoticons should be virtually as easy to read as text, not require some scrutiny.

But I’m not against implementing a ‘crying with laughter’ emoticon if someone wants to find or make a clearer one.

I like the grey emotes, they look nicer and fit oddworld better. I'd rather see grey emotes than the yellow ones we see everywhere these days.

I petition that the new smiley be a can of soda. The shortcut for it will be "Number".

It's such a dick move.

Why, what are you intending to do? Stick your dick into the soda can? That would surely do a number on ya, though I wouldn't want to move it very much while it was in there.

Especially if you did it while peering over a bathroom stall. Right, guys?

Well... the real problem is the pee pressure would build up to the point to make the soda can go bursting forth off his penis in a fashion a la shaking up a soda can and throwing it.

Can you see it spurting and shooting around in self-propelled circles through the air, getting everything wet?

You need some way of building up air pressure. The new wave of dick powered can launchers is just beyond the horizon.

EDIT: I can't believe me and Pilot just came to the same conclusion at the same time D:.

But if your dick didn't have a tight enough fit it'd just overflow.
