Angry Emoticons

In WordPress, :-x/:x represent angry smiley -> ๐Ÿ˜ก
In Yahoo, X-(/X( represent angry smiley ->
In Yahoo, :x/:-x represent love-struck smiley ->

Imagine typing [:-x] in Yahoo instead of X( for an angry smiley! ๐Ÿ˜

Why isn’t a standard symbol being used everywhere? It’s so confusing ๐Ÿ™

    because I guess anger comes in many forms ๐Ÿ™‚ ?

    PS: May I take it that you still have not gotten the boredom out of your system ;)?

    PPS: I am like Sathej – i think i use only those two.

    Adiya,
    Smiley Markup Language? I didn’t know that.

    Arvind,
    Yeah indeed it’s very simple ๐Ÿ˜›
    But I don’t like this smiley: ๐Ÿ˜ฎ -> Seems as though it’s a yawning smiley instead of surprise!!
    LOL! I hope that wasn’t an intentional mistake ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Sathej,
    I see

    Sami,
    I was expecting some comment like this ๐Ÿ™‚
    :O Exactly a similar post!!
    Btw, do you know that crib doesn’t mean whining? Reading the word in your comment got reminded me of Puranjoy’s post: http://puranjoy.blogspot.com/2008/01/on-crib.html

    Arun,
    LOL!
    >May I take it that you still have not gotten the boredom out of your system ;)?

    Yieks!! Is it that difficult. Yahoo provides a tray from where you can take the smilies. I guess its more tough in wordpress, where you have to remember the keys. ๐Ÿ™‚
