You dare question the value of the bouncing frog!?! Why have emoticons period.
I think that in the font options that there shoud be a setting similar to Bold, Italic and Underline that is a big "S" for sarcastic, since sarcasm is so difficult to convey in IMs, on BBS's etc.
People always think that you are serious due to the lack of tone.
:fire
(do you see how the bouncing frog added to my post and made the intent much clearer--or was that sarcasm? DAMN IT ALL!!!)

Hmmm...that's a very interesting idea wingnut. You could change the face of internet sarcasm across the globe! I wonder what the font would look like though...As for you Vlet, I would absolutely agree with you. Those are so insatiably useless, I cannot help but wonder what their reason for existance is. I think they are primarily here for those ADD-afflicted BBS members who need to randomly add a million pointless icons to their messages.

A girl being burnt and left by her boyfriend?
Maybe, someone that mixed the wrong chemicals in his science kit?
O, BTW don't mention it. I always like to help!
