I would like to propose a new smiley face thing. I think it would be useful to have a smiley (or two) to denote posting under the influence. Not as an excuse or apology. I believe people are responsible for their actions, even under the influence.😃 But in the same way a sarcasm font/smiley could convey added info. I thought this would be apropos, to post at this moment, as I am currently drinking. ( Something I don’t do much of.:D) Cheers:) ---

No new smiley will be added unless/until smashie is added (I hope!). Smashie is soooooooo needed around here. ---

The one I’ve always wanted is a Standing Ovation for putting before an addition to a quote I really agree with. I believe there is something like that some of the newer cell-phone-ish users can/have added now and then but not for my older version of FireFox and very limited tech skills. ---

Can they fix the “cool” emoticn? It does not indicate “cool” at all to me. 🆒 Looks like you are being skeptical. ---

Just bring back the putz smiley and use that for posting while intoxicated. ---

> [@jz78817](#): > > that’s not what that one means. it’s usually used (rather arrogantly) by people to say their opinion is the last word on something, and thus “case closed.” As obnoxious as that is, it’s not as bad as when people think ending their (usually unsupported) argument with “Period. Full stop.” makes it unanswerable. ---

> [@IvoryTowerDenizen](#): > > Little Jewish guy needs to come back. I miss :j I liked the Orthodox Jewish Guy too, but it was offensive to another Jewish guy. I believe that smiles change with the version of the mb software, and the guys that run it understandably don’t want to mess with said software.
