I like :sax: because it is very cute and I'm sad I don't see it near-constantly.

I like :ohdear: a lot and miss it when I'm on platforms with inferior smilie capabilities. It strikes just the right tone to work both sarcastically and sincerely. Conventional emojis just can't capture the feeling nearly as well.

Seconded. SA has a lot of good, expressive emotes whose lack I keenly feel on other platforms.

Like :effort: or :stare: or :unsmith:, all very specific feelings that I haven't seen a good equivalent for.

Also I am pleased to see this little guy finally gets to enjoy his drink: :guinness:

iirc :razz: got supremely over-used when it first came out so there was a bit of a backlash?

like, i'm pretty sure the code was : imaf*g : or some such at one point

It was loving everywhere and that drove a lot of people up the goddamn wall.

Like I cannot overemphasize this: y'all know how we make fun of reddit for stupid catchphrases and basement-lurker tendencies? That's what SA was like back in the day. The culture has changed really impressively.

:krakken: it's the mother loving krakken, what's not to love.

I love how majestic yet cute it is. Shame its name is tainted by morons right now.
