Would be useful ....

I just want to wave a wee red flag.

Oh and maybe a white one , for when Aibu threads get a bit bitchy ....white flag for calm down ?

You know peaceful surrender ? .

Thanks

I thought the big mug of cannabis tea Brew was for calming things down.

Tortington · 20/10/2011 13:09

is this to wave on mooncup threads?

or are we all going to communicate in signal whilst wearing sylish 'riviera' style culottes?

I think a 'fuck off and die' flag would be very useful ...mumsnet please....oh please

LeBOOOf · 20/10/2011 13:10

It's never going to stop now, is it?

DroveABroomstick · 20/10/2011 13:13

No laboof !

Soon we won't need to type words ....it will communication by pictures !

Very handy for us dyslexics !

Awwwww. I thought it was for the relationship threads. Something which says "Are you kidding? Run a fucking mile"
That's a much better use of it IMO Grin

Perhaps we could build an entire Emoticon Dictionary?

Then no one would ever have to actually formulate an original thought or write a bloody thing ever again?

Seems like a sensible direction for a discussion site.

LeBOOOf · 20/10/2011 13:20

It started with that bloody bear. Can't we get rid of it?

SinicalSal · 20/10/2011 13:28

I'm just after looking at the smileys list. The bear is gone !

SinicalSal · 20/10/2011 13:28
Bear
SinicalSal · 20/10/2011 13:28

oh. no, it's still there Blush

ShirleyKnot · 20/10/2011 13:31

I hate that fucking bear

Yama · 20/10/2011 13:33

Yeah, I hate the bear too. And the mug. And the flowers - too colourful.

JeremyVile · 20/10/2011 13:45

Yes, we need rid of the fucking bear.

Cant understand why we have it, its a reference to a mediocre thread that a small proportion of MNers found hilarious.

Very niche, that bear.

ShirleyKnot · 20/10/2011 13:47

hahaha at niche.

I never see it being used in any case. Unless it's being used in conjunction with other smilies to make spunking nobs pictures, or to spell out the word cunt.

Actually, why am I arguing against it? Yay the bear!

Bear
LeBOOOf · 20/10/2011 13:59

Perhaps MNHQ could give the bear a flag and s hold some tea and wine in each paw

LeBOOOf · 20/10/2011 14:01

Bugger, I sneezed and pressed post. Anyway, get the bear fully tooled up, and then PUSH HIM OFF A CLIFF.

SinicalSal · 20/10/2011 14:02

he could do all that LeBoof except be looking over his shoulder winsomely. we can then incorporate the biscuit as his arse - that will appease the agitators for a cats bum face. Job done.

ShirleyKnot · 20/10/2011 14:07

I think he should be SHOT INTO THE SUN

PinotScreechio · 20/10/2011 16:37

Wow at the bear haterz

No to red flags, though.

Or white flags.

Or green spotty flags.

We are going to have a moratorium on emoticions for a while as DamianTech has left for pastures new and nobody else can draw the rest of the Tech team are pretty busy.

But feel free to play with the Bear and have a Wine for now.

Thanks
caramelwaffle · 20/10/2011 16:57

No red flag.

However, someone over there < wants a cats bum mouth.

...

ChippingInToThePumpkinLantern · 20/10/2011 17:01

Thanks[pbear]BrewWine

I feel like I've stumbled into nethuns. I'm sorry old DamianTech has abandoned us gone to pastures new, but if that means no more bloody emoticons for a while then FAB.

NO MORE EMOTICONS - please.

ChippingInToThePumpkinLantern · 20/10/2011 17:03

Oh - fecked up the bear. I haven't used it so can't remember the 'instructions' for it Bear[pombear][anemoticontoofar]

SuePurblybiltFromBitsofCorpses · 20/10/2011 18:07

I'd like to lose the wine and the hash tea and the bleeding bear. Flags? Are we planning to post in semaphore now?
