It's the appropriate use of the appropriate smiley, that I love.

A modest proposal

Asking me to chose a favorite smiley :) is like asking me to pick my favorite swear word. :e2shrug:

In good faith :2angel:, I just can't do it.

:Headbang: :e2bike2: :e2faint:

I love :heart: :heart: :heart: them all :Sun:in their proper application. (Accuracy :e2point:. Accuracy :e2point:. Accuracy. :e2point:)

What I do not like :rant:, what drives me over the edge :flag: —and it seems to be a fetish here, :cry: —is excessively excessive and redundantly redundant :e2violin: :e2violin: :e2violin: over-use of smilies :hooray: :hooray::hooray::hooray::hooray:, especially the animated ones. :e2coffee:

It's distracting! :Lecture:

It's blight! :e2dance:

And it shant be tollerated! :e2smack:

It's a callous disregard for internet resources and, dare I say, a wanton :e2moon: and wicked :e2chain: waste of god's :)e2cloud9:) own perfectly precious pixels!

:eek:

:Soapbox: Show some restraint, man!

Understatement is the mark of a sensitive :poke: and mature :hat: writer :e2writer:, and so it should be of message board posters :PartySmil...

and those who love them :e2tomato:.

Stifle! :Ssh:

I am confident :Thumbs: that upon sober reflection :e2drunk: right thinking AW-ians of every stripe :e2stooges will join together :e2grouphu in mutual respect :guns: and cooperation :e2seesaw: to end this vulgar :whip:, and troubling practice :e2sling:; and, further, will work :e2hammer: tirelessly :Jump: to educate family :crazy:, co-workers :Hammer:, loved ones ::e2kissy:, and the general public :TheWave: of a kinder :Hug2: more effective :Trophy: and eminently humane :snoopy: philosophy and practice.

It is time to put away the childish ways of our youth, :)e2cookie: :partyguy: :e2fairy:), and embark on a more progressive path :e2steer:, for the sake of our children :e2thud:, our nation :e2salute:, and ourselves :e2shower:.

The stakes are high. :Jaw:.

But the rewards are great! :e2arms:

The whole world is watching! :e2photo:

And failure is not an option. :e2drown:

So make a solemn :e2tongue: pledge today :roll:, to join me :e2paperba in this most noble of causes. :e2cry:

:box::box::box::box::box::box::box:

Let this:idea:, be our finest hour! :e2headban:

Thank you. :e2woo: Thank you very much. :thankyou:

:gone:

Maybe not "my favorite" but this one :Jump: just SO reminds me of Perry in Patricia Woods' "Lottery."
