Smileys

[hikaru_dream]

I was thinking it's interesting how different smileys are in English and Japanese.
In English, it's usually written horizontal, right? =D
In Japanese it's something like this o(^.^)o
And you can make ones you want, as long as the other person can read it (^0^)/
It's a real pain to write them on a cell phone though.

What do you think?
Oh, while you're at it please show me more English ones

Only ones that stood out to me

What's really funny is that English smileys are vertical and English is written horizontally, whereas Japanese smileys are horizontal and Japanese is written vertically.

Lol that clown is cute. I never think of :@ as a pig because on msn its the angry face. So whenever I am mad I ":@" ... I wonder if people think I am pretending to be a pig.

I don't really know how to do american emoticons (I didn't know there was any difference o.O), but I do know how to do Kirby!

(>'-')> = Kirby
cxx[=====> = Sword
(>'-')>cxx[=====> = Sword Kirby!

You can also give Kirby various expressions:
(>^_^)> (>O_O)> (>-_-)> (>x_X)>
As well as various poses:
(>^_^)> <( o_o )> <(x_x<) ^( 'o' )^ (v-.-v)

( '-( '-( '-( '-( '-( '-( '-( '-' )-' )-' )-' )-' )-' )-' )-' )
Kirby army!!!

<====|xxo<( ^_^ )>oxx|====>
Double sword Kirby!

(>^_')>-) ---->
Archer Kirby!

The possibilities are endless!

--^( 'O')>cxx[=====> (>O_O)> (>T_T)>
Run, kirbies, run!




The next thing isn't an emoticon, but it's the best place I can post it.

MEGA MAN! (he looks kinda nerfed up on here but you get the general idea)




Various sideways emoticons:

= happy face
8D = big-eyed happy face
:3 = cute kitty face
83 = big-eyed happy face
xD or XD = laughing face
XP = mixed with XD
:O = very shocked face
8O = VERY shocked face
C: = big happy smile
:C = big frown
C8 = really happy face
CB = giddy face (the letter B represents half-closed eyes looking up, or something)
|D = with closed eyes
:B = either a face with buckteeth or a drooling face

Ahhh, so very many emoticons.

Heh I dunno why MSN chose the :@ seeing as it looks nothing like the angry emoticon :P

and remember to disable smileys when quoting the clown :D

To tell the truth..... ditto that too

I'm not quite sure what this means.
At first, I thought is was annoyed or surprised or something. Am I right?

I always thought it meant kind of confused? Or like, 'what the!?'
