Winky Winky

Nope, not “Tinky Winky,” our favorite Teletubby.

I’m talking about the regular “eye” winks.

I find them creepy IRL, and even creepier as emoticons or smiley faces.

At least in real life, you can see a person wink without any exaggerated expression, but those smileys–I can just see a very ostentatious winking motion.

That really creeps me out.
