Toa Achilles (Tums)

Have you ever noticed how I never use smileys? (Excluding the :t: or the :a:) It’s because they’re a fad. I really can’t stand fads. At the Technological University of Mathematical Statistics, (or T.U.M.S.) we believe that out of the 31,000 active members in BZP, chances are, I’m one of the select group that refuses to use those yellow circles I so despise. I mean look at them. Always, staring at me. It’s creepy, dog-gone it! I can’t look at them; it drives me insane. (Yes, I could be less sane than I am now.)

 

But, I guess if you think about it, they could be for the benefit. I mean, it saves people time of typing “I’m laughing” or “I’m not happy” or “Look at me! My pants are on fire and I’m hopping up and down with a blank expression!” But I’m going to still boycott them. YOU CAN’T TAX MY TEA, BRITAIN!!!

 

Oh yeah. Today my sister turns ten.

I use the grin smiley, the laughing smiley, and occationally the dancing smiley. Otherwise I don't really bother with them. I just put my "emo" stuff into words between star-thingys. Like *laughs* or *giggles* or *fumes* or *bursts into tears*, etc, etc. I just use whatever adequately narrates the specific feeling I'm trying to get across (not because they're a fad. I couldn't care less what's a fad or what isn't. Besides, worrying about fads [whether your trying to be in them or out of them] gets so exhausting...)

 

Tell your sister "Happy Birthday" for me! :D (that one has it's eyes closed, TA. So you don't have to worry about it staring at you)

Er... Boston Tea Party?

 

I’m still not going to use them, just because I don’t want people to know what my face really shows. Hey, I could throw them off! Like when I’m angry I use a happy smiley! IT’S FOOLPROOF!!

 

Nah.
