What's :whitewater: (and presumably the similar-looking ones) from? Up until just now I thought it was one of the shapes from that Snood game that was everywhere circa 20 years ago. Turns out they're other shapes with faces, so I'm at a complete loss.

There was a thread more than a decade ago called 'Tales of Smith' and it was really depressing and the :smith: emoji came from there and then other goons just started running with it.

I'm guessing this was one of those crowdsourced smilies that got bought by two people under different names. It happens sometimes with thread memes where everyone's like "someone should buy this!" but nobody's coordinating.

Bird Drugs is a reference to god-tier Visual Novel, Hatoful Boyfriend, in which you are a human who goes to an all-bird highschool and hang out with a bunch of cool bird pals. The bird in the emoticon proper is Anghel Higure, a Luzon bleeding-heart who is constantly high and believes that he is the star of an anime so hard that other people start believing it too. He is not the craziest thing about Hatoful Boyfriend [...] you should play it.

That is the source of the bird drugs image but CLAM DOWN from the Guild Wars 2 thread actually bought it because I, a bird, am often high on drugs while playing GW2 with Goon Squad.

as for goshawk, you might want to ask SAS poster Redgrendel2001, who seems to be the only person who uses it

In Guild Wars 2, many years ago, when the smiley was purchased

e because context might help: I was the GW2 Goon Squad leader for several years. Guild missions, activities, dungeons etc all involved a lot of weed and a very high and at times very exasperated (but always loving) Bird. We thus ended up with the broad spectrum "birddrugs" as well as the rather more Goon Squad specific "goshawk" when the little birddrugs gif came to the GW2 thread's attention.

If it's the Tucker Carlson thing, it was even stupider, in that someone pretending to be Olive Garden tweeted that they'd revoked his "Unlimited Olive Garden card" and the media ran with it.

I'd crack up at it every time but yeah I cannot imagine a context where it'd be used with any regularity, but then again that's never stopped goons from wasting 30 bucks on poo poo before.
