im fine with smiley faces EXCEPT the fucking korean ones (^^ ^____^) for some reason those get under my skin, i think it just draws a connection to those insufferable wapanese people that drain my life force every time i have to interact with them

Koreans over use ^_^ imo but they are just trying to be friendly

I actually agree. We should abolish this fool-hardy tradition; how long has this trend needlessly leeched off our linguistic abilities since the very conception of net? People - conveniently addicted about how one can supposedly convey expressions with few simple clicks - are abandoning their communicative abilities, not expounding one's intelligence upon actual sentence styling that helps to create the tone.

The thing really bothered me at that blog about someone raging at frequent grammatical errors was that nobody bothered to point out the abundance of smiley used by the people agreeing with him- have not many sticklers pointed out in the past that exactly such gratuitous use of these wiggly lines will eventually contribute to the decay of language? Nobody bothers making such arguments anymore, and I am seriously concerned about what abomination our average linguistic abilities as a society will be several years later......

Yeah, the smiley faces do help in communication.

Lately, I've realized that I use them a LOT, and also that they make one's posts seem somewhat childish if overused, so I've stopped using them randomly most of the time. I would have added a smiley after the previous sentence, for example, and that probably would have been mostly unnecessary.

Bro, why you gotta be so serious? The tone of your post is so monotonous.

To be honest, this is a bit of a strange thing to be annoyed by. You HAVE been on the Internet before right? Surely you've made peace with smilies due to the fact that they're pretty much everywhere?

Good luck overcoming your hatred for the little happy people though ^_^
