Think it referring to Nexus, the modding site for games like Skyrim, New Vegas, and Dark Souls. It has good mods on there, then utter poo poo, which there is a entire thread in Games mocking the horrors found there. Which is probably where that emoticon is from (poo poo with anime eyes).

Please, don't be my neighbor.
Nexus Mods is a popular site to host video game mods, particularly for RPGs like Skyrim and Dragon Age. Spend a few minutes looking around and your question will be more answered than you wanted it to be.

It's actually from a MacOS X symbol font. As to why a system symbol font needs to include a cutesy poo character, you can thank the Japanese

On the other hand, the mouse-over for :nexus: on the actual smilies screen says "it is a bad phone", so based on that, my guess is that the intended reference was something to do with these things.

There was an LP of Final Fantasy X a few years ago in which the LPers joked about how Jecht was rad and so visibly smug about it to his non-rad son.

I'm guessing the :human being: refers more to Jecht's attitude towards his son than any indictment of homosexuality in his character.

That was exactly it. To the point that the Magus Sisters (a summon consisting of 3 aeons) were named in a way that read "STOP CRYING human being" when summoned.

Yes it's for the phone, just a happy coincidence that it also applies to the site.
