I've noticed that some of our bloggers, especially the newer ones, do not use emoticons. Which makes me
Emoticon BTW.
Some of these poor souls resort to such lame substitutes as :-) or lol.
Who, I ask, would use :-) if they could use
? Or lol instead of
?
Then it came to me! These oppressed souls do not CHOOSE second class substitutes for emoticons.
NO! They feel this has been forced upon them by a type of caste system!
If their device doesn't allow them access to CS.com, they are forced to use CS mobi. And CS mobi doesn't have EMOTICONS!
It's TRUE!!
I say ENOUGH!!
Downtrodden mobi masses rise up!
Claim the emoticons as YOURS, and not just the exclusive property of the CS.com elite!!
No more sitting in the back of the bus without even a comfort emoticon
to keep them company!!
So, my radicalized mobi brothers and sisters, HOW do we redistribute the emoticon wealth?
I'm glad you asked!
We claim our share of the emoticon pie thru...STEALTH!!
Here's how scorned mobi users can liberate the emoticons...
When a .com user clicks on an emoticon such as
it appears in the text as wow between two :...:. Something like : wow : - only without the spaces between wow and the two :s . So, if a downtrodden mobi user TYPES IN wow between two colons ( : wow : only leave out the spaces) it appears in his/her blog/comment as
This also works when composing your profile narratives & private mails
Yes! Really!
...
...
But, sez you, how do I know what word to type in to get the desired emoticon?
I'm glad you asked, sez I!
There are two ways...
Ask one of your CS.com elite friends to send you a list of the words and the emoticons they will create.
However, the downtrodden person may be so looked down upon
as to have no CS.com elite friends.
They must resort to...subterfuge!
When you, a downtrodden mobi user, see one of the prized emoticons denied you, simply touch or click on it until the options appear.
Then touch/click 'save image'.
The emoticon will be downloaded as THE WORD!!
VOILA!!
The emoticon has been successfully liberated from the exclusive country club of the CS.com elite!!
MOBI USERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BUT YOUR LAME ;-) AND lol!
YOU HAVE A WORLD OF EMOTICONS TO GAIN!
CLICK ON!!...
Emoticons!!!
...
Yes.
I know what y'all are thinking. A monument should be built to honor a friend of the people...who set the emoticons free for the mobi masses!!
The freedom of the emoticons is reward enough!
Thats what I do.
Because that's who I am.
