No Hephaestus posted:On the topic at hand, is one of my favorite smilies and I don't know what it's from. Mr. Pumroy posted:I'm pretty sure somebody found it one of those dumping ground websites for smilies. You know, back in the day when you just HAD to find an "under construction" .gif for your geocities page in order to convey the fact that you have not fully assembled a complete compendium of lyrics and .mids of Backstreet Boys songs, you could find it in some website, right next to the index of .gifs of spinning flaming skulls and upside down crucifixes. Is it called "q" after Qqqqqqq, or is :q just supposed to be an ASCII version of a creepy face?

Mizufusion posted:I think it started with HyperHazard buying the same avatar that Eggplant Wizard had, and PYF posters getting confused about it. There was some joking about giving HyperHazard a custom title to distinguish the two of them, and it just sort of snowballed from there. Not sure what anyone else did to get one, other than not really wanting one. Close, except I didn't buy it. There was a derail in the PYF Funny Pictures thread where people were rushing to buy these avatars, and a few people accidentally ended up with the same ones. EW told people to stop complaining, and I made a joke somewhere about stealing her flashing frog. And then the whole thing snowballed. One of the mods later owned up to it, but I don't remember who. e: And yeah, the custom title is because people kept getting confused. All of the frog avatars have butt-themed text in commemoration of EW's brief stint as Butt Wizard. hyperhazard has a new favorite as of 17:47 on Jul 5, 2012 |

SplitSoul posted:I think someone started producing them, too. It's FiestaCat all over again. One of the Etsy goons might take a commission, Segmentation, but I don't know how much they'd charge. Might be a little pricey.

A new smiley came out of the Girl who thinks she's married to anime guys thread. Pretty self-explanatory. It's my favorite since . e: Durrr grammar and link. hyperhazard has a new favorite as of 19:32 on Sep 6, 2012 |

When did show up? I swear I haven't seen it before this week, but that could be because I'm oblivious. I've used and before, but this combines them into one perfect expression.

KillHour posted:I hope you assholes like this, because making it crashed Inkscape 50 goddamn times. And then I had to find a place to host it, which required figuring out how to read German because nobody in the English speaking world believes in images larger than 2048x2048. This makes me happy. You're a good person. BBJoey posted:I like it but now make an animated version where each portrait rapidly switches between styles.

American goon had a long-distance Japanese fiancee and they couldn't decide where to live. At some point it came up that she didn't want to leave Japan because she was "paranormally attuned" to the ghosts there.

I had to pick out Hindu wedding cards online a couple years back, and every other one had a loving swastika on it. We gave the kids coloring pages during the wedding, and I had to photoshop out a swastika on Ganesh's forehead. And then I showed up to the ceremony and--swear to god--someone had drawn a swastika on a sticky note and put it on the offering plate because god forbid we not have one at the wedding. What I'm saying is, I'm blown away at how much it's just not a thing outside of axis/ally countries. But this is spot on: syscall girl posted:Point is, you can't take it back.

Hey now, other people had frogs, but I was the only butt wizard. Besides Butt Wizard, of course.
