Many of which are typed whilst sitting on ???? maybe?? 1 hour ago, worgeordie said: If you post anything wrong on this forum , Liverpool lou ,will quickly be along And worgeordie is correct, Liverpool Lou will be along shortly with two pages of "sorting you lot out" You can summon him easily enough.

Popular Post Myran Posted July 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2023 I regard it as a way to mark incorrect information, so people don't accept it as fact and act on it. A comment like: "You can still get Covid extentions, don't worry about it." can easily trick someone into believing it's true, but if it has 18 confused emojis, that's a clear indication that something's fishy and might make the person ready more replies in the topic. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Keep Right Posted July 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2023 Unfortunately, freedom of speech is a dying form throughout most of the world now. This is evident on many social media sites such as Twitter, Google and others. Emojis are a form of an expression of speech and are not wrong. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Baht Simpson Posted July 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2023 The only icons I use occasionally are the thanks, thumbs up and love icons. The others are too vague. For instance the haha icon, are you laughing at a funny comment or laughing at the poster because they've posted something silly? Equally with the sad icon, are you sad because the subject matter is sad or because the poster is? And the confused icon can have two meanings too. The benefit of icons is to provide clarity but without comment some can be pointless. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted July 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2023 Sometimes I click on confused when someone makes a comment like: All women in Thailand are only interested in money. I react with confused because I don't understand how a person with at least a little of a brain can think like that. I don't ask: Why do you think so? Because if the person who writes something like that would actually think, then he would know that not all people are the same. I mostly also don't write something like: No, that is not true, some people are like this, and some are like that. What would be the point of writing something obvious? Maybe I think: Why are you writing something stupid like that? But there is no emoji for that. The nearest one is ????. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing there has been more than one universe is an opinion, a guess. If there were more than one God, you would see evidence of them fighting for control. Our only God chooses to remain silent.
