    Really off topic: the new smilies

    I really enjoy the new smilies and one of them in particular always makes me crack up. I'm hip deep in writing a new grant proposal and when I need a break I look at this guy and always end up laughing out loud.

    My problem is I have no idea what the heck he means. I'm new to this whole smilie thing - is he supposed to mean anything? I just think its funny to see a banana dancing I guess.....

    oop:

    Any illumination shed on this would be appreciated.

    Looks like a banana dancing with a sign that says poop.

    Not sure you can get more non-sensical than that.

    I wish I had this one on another message board I belong to.

    I doubt it's the original form the dancing banana saw (due to the pixelated edges), but here is where the dancing banana gained popularity at least

    Just folks playing about with them while they're new I think. It'll settle down a little. Is there a way to turn off viewing smilies in your personal settings?

    I ran the smilie permissions limit up pretty high, so I could preview all of them in the one post. If we see that people are abusing that limit, I'll wind the number back down and put an end to it.
