The only bad thing about online communication is that it's almost impossible to express real emotions through 26 letters and an assortment of characters.
It's especially difficult to get the point of a smile across.
These characters -- :) -- simply do not relay the feeling of joy that one usually feels when smiling.
Especially when Facebook chat turns them into creeptastic pedophile-like smiles, the corners of their mouth turned up so far you'd think they just got a botched face-lift.
A smile is a simple, yet meaningful facial expression.
I may smile a lot, but each smile has a different meaning behind it.
Either way, smiling is just an all-around great thing to do.
I think it's been proven to enlighten the soul. (ok, I don't really know, but that would be great)
So, if you're ever at a loss for words, just do what I do.
Smile.

ReplyDeletegreat progress
(that was supposed to be in a british accent, like mr. hairman from foster's home for imaginary friends)
expressing emotions through post... the creepiest smiley ever = ;)
oh my god. it's the most flirtatious 'that's what she said' smiley I've ever seen in my life... in a bad way. I agree, they are very pedophile-y.
this post reminds me of the song Smile by Lily Allen (duuuurrrrrrr)
and the lyrics are quite disturbing
but I guess that's how she is lol
aha.
ReplyDeletethanks.
and no smileys really get your point across, neither does LOL or rofl. (maybe ill write about those too. lol <--- see what i just did there. shoot me.)
but yeah, i was thinking about that song as i was typing that post.
but tbh, i actually think lily allen is really catchy. ahah.
