it's wrong sad

it's the wrong colour, and it's all squashed up, and it looks incongruous next to all the other, REAL emoticons

<foetal>

I agree, there's something not quite right about it...

Try thinking about it as a duck instead ...

I don't like it either. But then I hate festive hats on emoticons too...

It's just far too fluffy!!

was <shrug> taken perhaps?

Go to Tools, then Internet Options, then Security, and select 'disable cookies.'

I thought it was meant to be some sort of clown or red nose type thingy.

Surely a face with nothing more to say would have x for a mouth?

pofacedandproud Thu 05-Nov-09 12:18:52

It also annoys me as it reminds me of newspapers summing up our thing with Gordon Brown as 'what is your favourite bloody biscuit'

lucykate Thu 05-Nov-09 12:19:11

what's the red bit meant to be?, a nose or is it a jammie dondger?

snort @ "disable cookies"

Worm! You broke through your internet security peramater! Good to see you. Is your computer now going to self destruct?

LadyOfTheFlowers Thu 05-Nov-09 12:22:26

I also thought it was a bit pants. hmm

Tis indeed a JD I think.

ShinyAndNew Thu 05-Nov-09 12:22:52

I think it is cute biscuit Though I did think it had something to do rednose day??

Deadworm Thu 05-Nov-09 12:22:53

Have bribed leechblock with biscuitbiscuitbiscuit

GetOrfMoiLand Thu 05-Nov-09 12:22:54

lolol at 'disable cookies'.

I have it on good authority from my Grandson (aged 17 months) that it is a duck!!

He's sat on my knee, helping me Mumsnet hmm and screaming 'wak wak' and pointing at it!!

Seeing as he has a Daffy Duck tshirt on it that says 'IM THE BOSS!' I am not arguing with him!

TigerFeet Thu 05-Nov-09 12:25:45

it would be better without eyes

i do like it though, more the concept than the emoticon itself probably

"disable cookies" grin

pofacedandproud Thu 05-Nov-09 12:26:25

missed 'disable cookies' Heh heh.

noddyholder Thu 05-Nov-09 12:26:55

I didn't realise it was a biscuit thought it was for red nose day!

morningpaper Thu 05-Nov-09 12:28:16

DITCH THE EYES

Boco Thu 05-Nov-09 12:34:48

I think the idea of 'I have nothing more to say on the matter' is osolete on mumsnet, so surely it'll never get used grin

Boco Thu 05-Nov-09 12:35:41

I meant obsolete. Or maybe I meant ocelot.

It looks like a Comic relief red-nose wearing chick.
