No. Seriously, we do not need a pukey smilie. It would be more abused than the Putz smilie was. ---

If a pukey smiley is considered, I hope they make it a straight “yea or nay” vote, and not offer that amongst others. I am totally against the idea of a pukey smiley, and think we could vote it down on those terms, but I’m not sure we could overcome a split vote among the anything-but-pukies if we had to vote pro-whatever. ---

As is my wont in these threads, I will, once again, put in my vote for the neutral smiley: [http://home.earthlink.net/~awinkelried/images/smileypoll1/ch.gif](http://home.earthlink.net/~awinkelried/images/smileypoll1/ch.gif) ---

I suggest we go the other way - cast votes on a smilie execution (banishment is probably a better term). :rolleyes: Would be first up against the wall, as far as I’m concerned. ---

I made an all-purpose SDMB smiley a couple years ago for another thread. I now repost it, as an example of what could possibly be the most annoying and controversial smiley ever. Behold, [Multismashie](http://www.circumspectfiesta.com/images/sdmb/multismashie.gif), the confused, sad, nauseous, mallet-wielding Jewish Orthodox smiley who wants you to know you’re a putz. ---
