The price of a new emoticon is 30bux. I can imagine one use: "haha, you spent on a useless emoticon, , you stupid idiot"

I mean, I guess it could come in handy if you were having an intense discussion about 2001: A Space Odyssey.

If anyone is wondering, the guys from the Gunnerkrigg court thread recently bought  .It's also the perfect emoticon for being absolutely unimpressed.  signalises pure neutrality.

SAS, apparently. That's supposed to be a Psyduck wearing a football helmet, but it looks more like someone gave it a toupee and put a rubber band on its beak. I think the explanation was posted earlier in the thread. In any case, what's  all about?

Peanut President posted:There was a thread where you could send in custom designs for shoes and goons had fun with it. It was a contest by, I believe Doc Martend, where a team of designers would choose one boot & a second would be chosen by the internet. They would then be available to buy. We got the top 3 slots, and the first two got nixed by copyrighted images, but the third was a picture of a goon's snowy backyard & an MSPaint penguin. Some people bought them I guess? The company rep came into the thread and was pretty chill about his contest being goonrushed.

Hello thread, there are several smilies on the list which I made myself, so I thought I would post about them to clear up some mysteries about their origins! and  were made during the early days of Batman's Shameful Secret, among others that did not make the cut. I did not buy either of them! I don't know who did. The first one is Doctor Doom cursing out his eternal nemesis, Reed Richards. The second is Spider-Man's spidey-sense tingling. I always thought that the spidey-sense one would catch on more, but Doom seems crazy popular in comparison.I also made :hulk: by editing  but that was either deleted shortly after, or never bought, I can't remember which.   was made years ago in 2005 (according to the date on the image in my big ol' smilies folder) for the then-latest Gorgeous George thread in GBS. I edited  and posted the result for a laugh, then it was either bought or one of the GBS mods put it in the list. Either way I was kind of surprised since I didn't really intend for it to be used.As a brief aside, there used to be a smiley called :pwnonk: which was a mixture of  and  that looked like this:  . I believe the forums are a little poorer for its loss, 'cause Goddamn I love the expression on that li'l guy. I made around 2007-ish, as part of a selection of smilies based off the SA template:  I called it "anxious" and it went with a bunch of others. For example:  thoughtful,  pensive,  depressed,  nostalgic,  impressed,  smug. There's about a half-dozen more, not including the "original set" of smilies like  and I have honestly no idea how it ended up on SA because I cannot recall one instance of me ever posting it here. But I could have, and just forgotten I did.  came fairly recently after I got involved in the Traditional Games subforum. It is someone petulantly rolling dice, which is the way a lot of people roll dice. I also have a smug counterpart:  About the same time I also made  but a smiley to show one's appreciation for beat poetry is apparently too niche for some people's tastes.That's all I have to contribute, hope it helped with anyone's questions.

It was a reference to an image of Ben Roethlisberger making an incredibly close approximation to the psyduck face. This thread always makes me think about the fact that I bought  like 5 years ago on essentially a dare and got made fun of for it, but people still seem to use it. Thanks, people who need knucks in their posts.

Action Tortoise posted:I like I was there when was made! It was the weed megathread from a year and a half to two years ago. There was a guy, okposocalypse or something, who would show up every couple pages and make the most incomprehensible posts about how high he was at the moment or various weed-related topics. I'm not sure he realized how out of it he was but every time he decided to communicate a thought, between deciding to post and typing his words out everything went horribly amazingly wrong. Everyone looked up to him, wishing we could be more like him. He was crowned the highest person ever and someone made the emote to celebrate. Jinh has a new favorite as of 16:59 on Sep 16, 2013 |

Wasn't that fist bump one a part of the weird BYOB fad of buying smilies at the slightest provocation? I remember people talking about wanting to make modular smilies by buying parts so you could do things like      if you, for some reason, felt the need? I remember seeing them crop up but I just forgot what the whole list of them was.
