There is now a search function; I think it would be helpful if people went through and tagged all the smilies with logical tags. So that one might have the tags: face, Beer, drink, drinking, glass, alcohol, etc.

I really think this would be a great Goon Project.

e: I probably should have read the rtest of the thread first

It's from Star Citizen, where Gary Oldman plays one of the characters. It's ripped from his in-development model in kind of a facial T-pose. Relevant front page article: https://www.somethingawful.com/photoshop-phriday/oldman-star-citizen/

It can be used for all things Star Citizen, all things Gary Oldman, to indicate hype or desire for something (often implied to be misguided), or just as a reply to something that visually resembles that facial expression.

E: Oh, and another important keyword for this smiley is parp, which is an onomatopoeia for airhorn noises.

Cool, thank you.

When Fred Benenson decided to have each sentence of Moby Dick translated into emoji for Emoji Dick, he farmed each sentence out to three different mechanical turk people and then had other mechanical turk people vote on the best one out of each three. What I'm saying here is I bet these things would benefit from multiple eyeballs, because for instance there's no way that I would know anything about parp, but I know Deep Lore about BYOB smilies

tag proposal: "classic" (or just "emoticon" would probably be better) for smilies that look like oldschool emoticons ( :) :( :imunfunny: :j: :keke: etc)


this is good, thanks, I was trying to think about a way to indicate that.

:gurf: white cat face static

This is a vanity emote for a BYOB (original, not 8.2) poster who used to draw a parody of Garfield called Gurf. I think I was the only person in the entire world who was ever amused by it in any way. Weirdly enough the poster Gurf who spams GBS with his unfunny comedy videos claims not to be that guy.

Might be worth changing 'sad' in eng99 to ':eng101: but sad' and/or ':eng101: derivative'

Similarly for the square: ':eng101: but square' and/or ':eng101: derivative'

yeah I think some sort of derivative thing would be great not just for these guys but also for, like, all the different hengets and mr greenwater derivatives and so forth.

The sign this lady is holding says, I believe, "Death To America" (hence d2a), so death and America should probably be in there too

this the BYOB guy so "byob" should definitely be one of the terms

Jiru posted:

:vd: - animated, violet, purple, pink, dragon, death, die, murdered, text

violetdragon was an OG BYOB poster, so this is a vanity emote, and it is one of my favorites. I hope one day she will come back. "vanity" and "byob" should probably be tags for it.

i just usedd the search term "money" to find :homebrew: which is awesome because i have no idea how homebrew = money. For the first time ever I was able to think something like "I want the smiley where the guy is throwing the money" and then was able to find it. QCS success.

:weedass: static, duck, hat, drugs, marijuana, reefer NOTE: needs background

:wms: animated, scrolling, marquee, banner, look at me, windmillslayer, fyad, vanity

Weed rear end is a BYOB thing. There were hats made that said Weed rear end on them. I have one. The duck is wearing the hat.

Wedass is a mix of that plus the Wednesday frog, so also BYOB.

And I don't know how wms got the fyad tag there. Did wms post very much in fyad? That smiley was definitely made when they posted in byob.

Midjack posted:

The forum name is right there in the text and there are a number of other thread and forum vanity smilies.


My understanding of the definition of a vanity smilie is that it was uploaded by or about a particular user. For instance :wms: was uploaded by someone so that Windmillslayer would have an emote :rory: was uploaded when Rory died, :duckie: was uploaded because Fluffieduckie rules, :vd: was uploaded because Violetdragon could put people on blast etc. iirc :sidvicious: uploaded his himself but maybe I'm remembering wrong. :wms: :duckie: :vd: and maybe :sidvicious: are also byob smilies because they were uploaded when those posters were very active in byob, same thing with :rory: being fyad.
