Jo, fast nä.




Ehkä, vaan ei is wrong tho.
That's "maybe, only no"


It should be "kyllä, mutta ei"

[Brisky]

Omg... I [redacted] knew it most likely was that, but "vaan" just sounded better than that.

Schorriemorrie!

Such is the nature of the mysterious creature known as the Finnish language.

[Brisky]

Woa...

The Finnish language is an intestinal parasite? 0_o

Nope nope nope nope....

[Cheza]

No idea. :P




Also, I still keep ticking in "Move this topic" whenever I try to tick in "Don't use smileys" >->
Because "move" is in the spot where "Don't use smileys" used to be before I became a mod.
The struggles I face.

[Brisky]

I'm typing my smiley's out in ASCII, I'm not who's to blame here...

 ( ͡° ʖ̯ ͡° )

[Cheza]

I'm allergic to those too.
Sucks to be me.

[Brisky]

Wat? Since when?

I though you said you were okay with those?

[Cheza]

The ones that aren't ridiculously overdone, yes. :P

[Brisky]

Shame...

People put the most effort into those...

┴┬┴┤( ͡° ͜ʖ├┬┴┬

[Cheza]

I prefer it when people put effort in what they're writing.
But that's just because I'm a heartless killjoy who wants people to go have their emoji/smiley-spammy fun somewhere else. >->
Yup.

[Brisky]

But the problem is that human communication is heavily reliant on body language and facial expressions. So, even with the most expressive of writing, it's often still almost impossible to judge someone's mood or intentions, when they're telling you something.

Using smileys acts as an effective medium to indicate someone of their mood, or intentions, with the mere flick of a few keys, whilst avoiding being creepy by constantly telling people how you feel about things, wich is why I believe that smiley's are incredibly usefull in written / typed conversations. And, since human emotions are very diverse, and complex things, I believe that there should be no limit to the complexity of a smiley, as long as it is readily available, and effectively get's the message across.

For example, if you're reading this, you might think that I feel slightly pissed off, due to my extensive use of expensive words. But, all I have to do is a place a :I somewhere in my message, and it immediately tells the reader that I actually feel somewhat insecure about my statement.

:I

[Cheza]

I personally don't like the look of graphical/overdone ones, and that's just my personal preferences and stuff.
People are still free to do whatever they want. Write and use as many smileys as they want.
I'll silently judge them for their life-choices, but that's all.

[Brisky]
