Ohhh, so as not to seem rude, I just wanted to acknowledge you and inform you that you are being ignored regarding this post :D

That's ok Mate......I do recall several posts of yours that were quite suggestive about your feelings towards SBK. I understand. :)

Marky, you say "passive aggressive" as if it is an undesirable behaviour.

What's so wrong with passive agressiveness?

"......I don't mind being insulted. If you look at the posts in this thread they are almost all insulting. ..."

Are they almost all insulting? If you think so, then you may be a bit over-sensitive despite your claim. I saw very few insults. Mocking, cajoling, tongue-in-cheek rib-poking.... not many insults though.

Passive aggressive behavior stems from an inability to express anger in a healthy way. A person's feelings may be so repressed that they don't even realize they are angry or feeling resentment. A passive aggressive can drive people around him/her crazy and seem sincerely dismayed when confronted with their behavior. Due to their own lack of insight into their feelings the passive aggressive often feels that others misunderstand them or, are holding them to unreasonable standards if they are confronted about their behavior.

Funn how much that post reads like a passive-aggressive insult. Oh, and :) .

Sucking up to Admin :)

Hmm, a new soapie/unrequited love twist to the thread - every danger the OP will spring back into action...

E: :)

Ne'er Die, perhaps you need to get your feasibility application in for a smiley supplement.

Research needs to be done and topics should be discussed in a thread dedicated to aesthetics of the emoticon.

Not sure who is in charge of petty cash, so better to keep all receipts.

Nurse Diesel is in charge of the petty cash. Unfortunately, she's busy with a patient at the moment...

sbk, don't ya think you could talk to the old guy about brightening up the pages of thai visa with a couple of new emoticons every now and then? Same drab old emoticons :)

smee imagines the look on her face is similar to nurse diesels about now. :D

When you call him Mr BJ, surely a smiley is unnecessary...

Mr BJ you forgot to add a smiley.

:)

“I’m not much of a writer but I ran across some quotes from John Blumenthal. He has written a couple of movies and 8 books in addition to being a columnist. I hope you don’t mind if I include some snippets from an article he wrote.

“The reason I hate emoticons is that they're just plain infantile and so are the people who use them. If you're trying to communicate humor or happiness or sadness, you don't need to express yourself with a conglomeration of sideways parentheses, ampersands and colons. Use your words.  Hieroglyphics are no longer necessary. If you're being funny, happy or sad, that should be apparent from the comment that precedes the emoticon. 

And if there's no writing involved, just an emoticon, you're basically a simpleton with nothing to say. Or just plain lazy.  

Here's one of my favorites: The emoticon of a little face with its tongue sticking out. My goodness, that's sooooo clever. If you're an eight year old. Welcome to the third grade.  

Interestingly, men don't use emoticons very much. Maybe not at all. At least I've never seen one at the end of a sentence written by a man. Teenage girls and women seem to be the main culprits. Maybe there's an emoticon gene. But if you're a woman over twenty-five and you're using emoticons, you probably should have your endorphin level checked.

Okay, now here's the challenge. Put on your thinking emoticon caps (is there an oxymoron in there somewhere?) and let's see who can make the most creative emoticon. Be sure to tell us exactly what the hel_l the stupid thing stands for. The winner gets the coveted "I'm- A Five -Year- Old Award."     

my apologies.

I meant to say:

Id like this entry to be considered for the coveted "I'm- A Five -Year- Old Award" please, thank you. Its not a smiley emotion..is it still acceptable?

I'd like an emoticon where I could show marky my arse cheeks as a reply to his last post. :)

You want to reply to my point by exposing your arse cheeks? Way too much information for me!
