All the smilies are OK

EXCEPT

this one:

What's happening to his upper lip !?!!?
Can anyone honestly say: "Hey. This smily perfectly catches my mood because it graphically explains how funny i'm feeling"
I mean: This smily stands for "LOL!"
and now look at it again:
I think it's just sad.
And what the f*!&k is happening to his upper lip !?!?!?!
Makes me feel like him:

btw. i'm totally for introducing this one.

and of course not to forget his brothers:

The smilies are standard phpBB issue. I see the same set everywhere.

..dont know to say the word for (Ich werf mich weg!!!) Nice thread never lought that much xD

I can tell that the smilie is supposed to be laughing. I have no problem with it at all.

Yeah. I see that it's "supposed" to be laughing.
Isn't that sad?

It really tries to resemble the human act of laughing, but it totally fails.
Like the human-alien-hybrid in the 4th "Alien" movie.
A part of it is human and tries to raise feelings in the observer. (in this case the feeling is "LOL!". Of course i know that "LOL!" isn't a feeling but you get the point)
The other part is unhuman and interpretes the procedure of laughing by copying the gesture and the face-movements.
This results in the skewed grimace you can see when looking at this:

It's just not human.
It's no "laughing".
It's ugly and scary at the same time, and it gets worse as we still CAN interprete this as an act of laughing.

I don't associate this smiley with "LOL!" and i'll never be able to do so.
See how the eyebrows move outwards while "laughing" ?

It's scary and makes you feel uncomfortable. Not amused!

And that's the point why i'll NEVER use this smiley in any thread except this one and i would vote for the execution of this smiley at any time without hesitation!

This one fits better anyway:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Somewhere, someones browser has just died because of those smilies.

This smiley works against Strahlemann?

Good to know, can it be included in Nexuiz' conchars.tga so I can say this smiley in order to frag him?

And, just for the hell of it...

Oh freddled gruntbuggly
Thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee.
Groop I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes
And hooptiously drangle me with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon,
See if I don't!

Wenn ist das Nunnstück git und Slotermeyer?
Ja! Beierhund das oder die flipperwaldt gersput.
