The other day while in the lounge, while in a fit of foolishness,
I posted a post, greeting one of our new members; Raine, and inserted a whole flock of emoticons (the foolishness was the emotes not the greeting).
And this was from a person who a few years ago in "manly" forums like car and motorcycle ones; would never use a emoticon, cause car & bike guys, don't emote.
I said:
"I think we should have a contest to see who can have the most emotes in two lines of text; but they have to pertain to what your saying, mine above would be the first in such a contest
"
And Tishri1 said:
"Sounds like a great thread! Will you start it? I would like to try too!!!
So here is my post and the first entrant to the contest; let the emoticons emote!
"Thank you, I like the name "Raine" it reminds me of my favorite
sunshine; RAIN!
From the Greatest Northwest
country "Oregon'
where we call "rain"
liquid sunshine;
because, if you think about it
, it's God's
sunshine
that makes the water evaporate,
into the clouds
which makes! Rain!
"
