What does :D mean?

[LanguidLobster]

Just like a grin? Friend texted me some good news for her so I replied that I was happy...then wasn't sure what the ':D' response meant!!

Yes, a cheesy grin

Yes a grin, but it doesn't really work does it?

If you look at it sideways it's 2 eyes and a big smiley mouth. It predates emojis!

It's old timey school emojis, from when your high tech brick could manage three lines of text.

Christ I'm feeling me age now

So do you assume people that do :D have antiquated devices?

Well...we've been through quite a lot together. I couldn't stop her from going severely schizophrenic basically.

I thought it was a tongue stick out thing but wasn't quite sure. Last time she was upset she burnt the house down

I haven't even seen her in years but am still extremely fond of her, just wasn't sure about the the :D

No, :P is a tongue sticking out

No Sparkling, just the we grew up with them!

Should be :-D if you want to be posh

so old school
