The Blowjob Smiley

[Joshua BishopRoby]

What the hell is this smiley supposed to represent?

[Andrew Martin]

By holding my mouse pointer over the :o, a little tooltip window pops up, with "embarrasment" in it.

Are you feeling embarrased now? :)

I found this thread at the bottom page and thought it was funny enough to want to bring it to the front.

Blowjob smiley, we shall miss thee.

I'm figuring that the original image probably had an open circle for a mouth, like the :eek: one does now.

I don't know... it looks less like a blowjob smiley than it does the smiley of someone who'[s just had a really great shit. :o "aaaaaw yessss"

[A.J.Gibson]

The original embarrassed smiley was a yellow face (they were all yellow at the time) with an 'O' shaped mouth and blushing cheeks.

It also had closed eyes, which made it also plausible as a close-your-eyes-and-open-your-mouth smiley. There's a reason it was written colon-o.

Of course, now the wide-eyed :eek: is all we get.

Of course, now the wide-eyed :eek: is all we get.The sodomized smiley!

Good point. What the fuck is this doing in our beloved Art of Game Design?
