This is incorrect and you calling it "fur" makes you bad as well! We aren't ban on sight anymore because people seem to have learned their lesson and don't go around posting about how they think it's okay to dress up like a squirrel and have gross sex.

So gross sex by itself is ok then. I was worried for a minute.

What's the story behind :stonklol: ?

I'd ask the same about :shepspends: but I have over 600 games on steam and a hundred on GOG.com so i guess someone made it for people like me.

:stonklol: was bought for the PYF Awkward/Gross/Ugly thread for those moments when you :stonk: at something then laugh at the sheer horribleness of what you're looking at, then go back to :stonk:. Basically it's for whenever something is both completely horrifying but also funny.

:stonk: itself is :stare: and :gonk: mashed together, if anyone didn't know.


Anyone know how gonk got that name?

Probably someone posted something unattractive in the Awkward and Ugly thread and goons decided the only suitable way to react was to purchase another variant of stonk. I think DStecks bought it.

I really hope that smilies like that and the troper one don't get deleted, just so we can look back later on and laugh at ourselves for spending money on dumb things.

I think it was from Gaia Online - a lot of old SA emoticons are. "gonk" is anime slang or something.

I know :shepspends: was based on a smilie making fun of some of the terrible facial expressions on Commander Shephard in Mass Effect.

More specifically, :shepspends: is based on :shepicide: (itself a combination of :shepface: and :smithicide:).
I think :shepspends: was spawned in the Steam thread, and I think that's really all there is to it (not that any explanation beyond that would be needed for the emoticon).

Nope. I was the first one to report it's existence to the Steam thread, it was definitely made somewhere else. It's perfect for the Steam thread, though,

Ah, I stand corrected!
I thought someone just made and bought it specifically for the Steam thread.

Nothing that expressive could ever come from anything Mdickie related. You might be thinking of :dealwithit: which I think came from a Let's Play of Mdickie's wrestling game.

There was a version of :shepface: that did the weird talking/"blinking" animation from Mdickie stuff but I don't think it was actually bought and put in the SA system.

It is from the Crete LP (Paradox Games and a clusterfuck of a thread).

Helladid was one of Crete's best rulers, and beyond that the context is the exact same as the other crying-flag emotes.

It's a weirdly deformed face. It's supposed to mean "what in the gently caress?"
