Author Topic: Why does BLF have these emoticons? (Read 1906 times)

The only one of these I've seen used regularly is the Cookie Monster, and it's used as a sort of trollface. Aside from that, none of them insinuate any sort of emotion; they're simply random objects. And I noticed when even a single one is used, people begin to assume that person lacks social ability/is a child/has autism.

Why do we have these? Do they serve a purpose besides a mocking expression or insinuating autism?

I like to use them but I keep forgetting.

The cookie monster and sad panda or whatever it is called have some form of purpose but the cookie, fudge, and NES I don't know about

Cookies were used as some sort of 'award' for doing something back in the day. I 'unno about the NES. I think Badspot should replace the icecream with a popcorn bag, honestly.

It's a great way to pick out the handicaps.

I also think they have names if you hover over them in the post menu.
