I think it was an old GBS thread, where goons made 3D animations of the smilies. There are a bunch of those videos, including one that I can't seem to find right now where :frog: vomits sunglasses onto :smugdog: or something like that.

I remember those appeared in an article on the front page here.

I bought it because it was used in SAS a lot in N/Vs threads.

This pissed everyone off because they predicted it would be overused. It was sort of but led to a bunch of stares which are hilarious. :staredog: :catstare:

And now you now where :stare: comes from.

Which led to the best fake-smilie:

How do you do that and also here:

is some more.

How? I clicked on every single image in the album, removed the s from the end of the filename to get the actual image, copy, paste. I probably won't do the same to all those turtle smileys, though.

Since he linked it in his post directly, I'm going to assume he knows.

Real dude, it's just a joke? Why would somebody spend $35 on that? Because they're an absolute moron. No other reason than that.

Since it's a link to something on the somethingawful.com servers, and it's not actually selling anything, it probably only cost $8.

Internet politics I guess? "The discourse" is used online to refer to political discussions.

It's pretty much this.

Is there a way of importing SA smilies into discord?

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?

:lewis: who the hell is lewis?

He's Lewis Hamilton, Formula One racing car champion. It's what his race control say on the radio to congratulate him for winning. Some posters in the Formula 1 thread also have the phrase as a gang tag.
