The Truth About Mr. Smiley


Ok here's a random question, but I feel it needs to be addressed:

:P

What is up with this smiley?

Is it goofy?

OR

Is it some type of sexual insinuation?

That smiley is looking down at something with its tongue out in exasperation. What exactly is it looking at? And you know, every time I use that smiley, I feel like people may think sex is on my mind. What are your thoughts?

See? Now doesn't that seem to give you a sexual vibe with that smiley?

It just seems like a smiley that has a hankering for something. Could be food, but no one here talks about food that much. It's usually used with something with a double meaning - the other meaning leaning towards a flirtatious vibe.

And no, it does not mean I have sex on my mind. I have marriage on my mind. And its not sex that I'm looking forward to.

It's the showers :P

lmao - i was just going to say what promakhos said... that yes, that shows sex is on your mind. :) I never did see that face as sexual EVER - so why is it that it is sexual to you? ;)

yea i also use that smiley as a goofy face.. or teasing someone.. or to keep things on the joking level rather than a heated discussion.. umm come to think of it.. i guess it could be alittle flirtacious depending on the context? umm but nothing sexual.. but i'm sure you can get that.. if u analyze it too much..
