I HATE the biscuit face

it's wrong

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

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

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?

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

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 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!

it would be better without eyes

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

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

I thought it was for Red Nose Day too.

at disable cookies.

Like the idea of the biscuit emoticon, but not the exectuion. Agree it shouldn't have eyes. Could it have a black outline too please?
