Seeing as it's new smiley month...

I think it's high time we had a smiley with a halo for use when someone wants to be sanctimonious/ironic/smug.

lol at the biscuit smiley

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 04/11/2009 19:29

Is the smiley a jammie dodger?

I would need a halo one all of the time

bonfirewithaheartofgold · 04/11/2009 19:29

ooh yes if anywhere needed a [smug] smiley it's mn

can we have a :P please?

GrimmaTheNome · 04/11/2009 19:30

How about one with a little wig for when we feel judgy?

AortaBeTidying · 04/11/2009 19:35

We neeeeeeeed a :p

MitchyInge · 04/11/2009 19:38

no we don't, we need a love heart and some friendly spider ones

Stayingsunnygirl · 04/11/2009 19:52

Definitely a judgey one - perhaps a smiley that's pulling on a pair of judgy pants. A D'Oh one would be useful too - a smiley smacking itself on the forehead.

We might need a bumsex one too - just for Fridays, of course.

And a ranty one perhaps...

Thanks for the new one, though, MNHQ!

Ooohh, oooh - that made me think - we really need a chocolate biscuit smiley - or just a chocolate smiley. And a wine one. Pretty please!

HelenMumsnet · 04/11/2009 20:10

lol at judgey one (and eek at bumsex one!)

Will pass on your thoughts but have to warn you that we don't really like to have too many smileys.

bonfirewithaheartofgold · 04/11/2009 20:27

we already have a bumsex one, surely?

Stayingsunnygirl · 04/11/2009 20:30

I would have thought that was oral sex not bumsex, bonfire.

Stayingsunnygirl · 04/11/2009 20:31
  • just the bumsex one then - please.
MarkStretch · 04/11/2009 20:31

I think we need a one. TBH there's a lot of pregnant or generally repulsed people on here who could do with a vomit emoticon.

bonfirewithaheartofgold · 04/11/2009 20:33

the eyebrows definitely make it a bumsex one sunnygirl

NormaStanleyFletcher · 04/11/2009 20:38

I have been here over 3 years and in that time only the buscuit smiley has been added(afaik)

SO it isn't so much new smiley month as

"oh my god you finally gave in and gave us another smiley " month

I fondly remember when crossing out was introduced, and everybody was calling tech a stud muffin genius

Stayingsunnygirl · 04/11/2009 20:39

Perhaps it's a multi purpose emoticon, bonfire - which just goes to show how clever MumsnetHQ and Big Tech are! [crawly emoticon, anyone??]

Stayingsunnygirl · 04/11/2009 20:40

Norma - are there any pictures to show the studmuffinliness of Tech?

Iggi999 · 04/11/2009 20:40

There have been scary halloween smilies Norma. Now departed.

NormaStanleyFletcher · 04/11/2009 21:02

OH ther are seasonal variations on the usual smilies:- Easter (bunny ears), Christmas (santa hats), red nose day (guess what)

But they are just variations on the usual smilies, not a completely new one

NormaStanleyFletcher · 04/11/2009 21:03

Tech did have a profile page. Will take a look...

Iggi999 · 04/11/2009 21:04

Ohh. Haven't been around long enough to see them.

bonfirewithaheartofgold · 04/11/2009 21:12

lol @tech perving

NormaStanleyFletcher · 04/11/2009 21:18

I can't remember which tech it was. Might have been the original Tech. I would find the thread, but I can't be arsed (and we would probably find that I was the only one calling him a stud muffin )

Stayingsunnygirl · 05/11/2009 09:45

I see nothing wrong with a bit of tech perving. I am sitting at the pc, looking out at a grey, wet scottish morning, and I've got a lot of cleaning and cooking to do, because dh is bringing a colleague home for supper tonight - so I deserve a bit of something fun!

And re. the studmuffinliness of tech, I trust your judgement Norma!

MyCatIsABiggerBastardThanYours · 05/11/2009 09:50

I always thing there should be a cats bum smiley. For those dissaproving moments when MNers are shocked judgy at the general world around them.

I am happy to think that tech is a stud muffin.
