Yabu. It's the best one of the lot. It drives me sooooo crazy that I can't use it in texts etc. Hmm

Hmm is how I imagine I look at least 60% of the time. I like him very much. He is very me.

I find Grin far to try hard and cheesy though, unless I am really laughing.

It's not sad Hmm

It's the artistic version of 'prick' IMO

I use it for tutting about DSs, as in 'DS left his towel on the floor, expects me to pick it up Hmm so indicating 'flippin teenager',

But try not to use it at another poster.

Confused generally sums it up.

It does the trick then. I assume the whole point would be to get the back up of the person it's aimed at.

I hate the biscuit thingy. I don't really get what that's all about, except that it's an insult.

Biscuit to me says 'Calm down dear. You fucking hysterical wench'.

Very patronising. Buy yet so often appropriate.

Hmm is my favourite

I tend to use Grin more than Smile because Smile seems PA for some reason

Hmm

Oh I thought Biscuit was more "you are being so unbelievably rude/arrogant/arsey/ridiculous/whatever I can't be doing with you any more, you really take the biscuit"

I was thought that Biscuit meant fuck off...
Not sure why?

i can do the arsey face RL, although for its not arsey, its bemused.

I am new here, and I thought Biscuit meant " Just going to sit back, have a biccy and watch the shit hit the fan on this thread".

But I know nothing about these things.

I thought the biscuit was 'no comment', as in Gordon Brown.

I wish the emoticons on the app matched the website. I do get confused between Hmm and Sad.

Also I think they should be women.

I like Hmm and to me it really does say Hmm

I don't like Grin it looks manic rather than grinning.

And we just don't see enough Bear I might just start using him at random.

I hate this one :(

It is toooooo sad.

If it were yellow it would be OK. Just a bit sad.

The blue is too sad and makes me think that you are massively over-egging it when you use it.
