Can you explain the second one to a confused forum poster? I understand what it is, but I don�t know what you�re supposed to use it for.

it's kinda like :eyepop:

where you're surprised or astonished at something, but it's also a really lovely thing you're astonished at, so it feels more like :eyepoop:

Look at the codes, one of them is eyepop while the other is eyepoop. Make a spelling error, and poo poo starts popping off.

Hollow Knights voice acting is in a gibberish made up language, but one of that characters lines sounds like "git gud" and the community ran with it.

I use them all the time in Pidgin Hangouts for PC (when the person I'm chatting with also has the smiley pack), but really miss them when I'm on my phone. I think there's an SA emoji keyboard for iPhone, but nothing for Android devices.

Slack doesn't support rectangular smilies, so they get scaled super small and un-readable unfortunately.

One of the Goon Discord servers I'm in has a Discord bot that posts the appropriate smilie when needed. I think it's this one?

Brobot does that but the original one isn't on Github anymore. That one's a fork that looks like it hasn't been updated in 2 years.

Tusen Takk/Fat32 Shamer is the one who made/updates it.

You can create a server for yourself and import the smilies there, but you need Discord Nitro to be able to use them in other servers.

Also a lot of the SA smilies look crap in Discord because they're too low resolution, and/or don't work very well on dark backgrounds.

(Fun fact, :3:
