Some sick posts in US-english
Have you ever had one of those weird 'drawings' in any of your messages ?
In case you did and doubted what they meant, here are their (my) explanations:
:) - First original smiley by user with no time on hand (unix/DOS coder smiley).
;) - Ditto winking smiley for user with no spare second, using monospaced fonts.
:0 - Ooh and Aah smiley expressing 'WOW' or 'How dare you/I say that?' feeling.
:-) - Message/sentence which is humorous / smiley standard / Happy guy
:-( - Frowning. Sad or Un-smiley / Message which often means trouble / Sad guy.
;-) - Message to be taken with a grain of salt. A.k.a. winking/Sardonic incredulity.
Ideal standard smiley for readers using serif font (Times New Roman etc.)
Wink! Wink! Nudge! Nudge! (see Monthy Python's Flying Circus)

for his/her taste. (smiley seems to be invented by me, Julius).
