    [​IMG] Okay that is a really weird and dare I say it pointless poll but BoM is full of it anyway :p .

    Here is the question:

    Do you know by heart the ''what to type'' of each smilie or do you have to use the ''more smilies'' pages to use them?

    Actualy I didn't know how I could've ask in other way. :lol: But I guess it's a silly way to ask a silly question no? :D

    Ao far the result proves absolutely nothing. I just wanted to know if I was the only one lazy enough, after three year, not to remind a single smilie.

    Yeah, I just use the ones I know, and if I don't know it, I learn it. Most of them are pretty obvious and easy to remember if you use it often.

    Yes, though I'm not going to abuse the relaxed smilie limit just to prove it. :p

    I know most of them. Some of them I have to check up on occasion...

    Then again, I usually tend to use the sames ones over and over. :rolleyes: :hahaerr: :evil: :bang: :shake: :love: :thumb: are usually the ones I use, but I like to deversify a little too. Tal's naming of the smilies make it easy to remember what they are. :rolling:

    I don't use very many because I don't know most of them. I know :beer: , :bs: , and :banana: , but that's it. I know a few more on MSN, and have a couple custom ones I've ripped off from people I chat with, but I change them slightly so that I don't get them accidentally when I have a serious point to make...

    I know most of them, but there are some I just never use and - hence - don't know at all. Like :money: or :almostmad:

    I mean "almostmad"?! How does that work? Surely you're either angry or your not? BAH! :smash:
