1. Back in my day they weren't even pixelized. They were ASCII. Both ways. With a 14.4 modem.
Damn kids and their sprites and 3d images...

4. i'm with ya...
But I like the simple ones that still do something interesting, like:
:beer:
and
:rant:
(two activities I'm fond of)

I'm too lazy/should be working anyway to find the ones that aren't on DU's smiley page, but you get my drift.

9. yeah, I find that one quite applicable
Yeah, I find that one quite applicable, but more necessary in the real world than here at cozy DU. Too bad I can't exit stage left quite so easily when the boss is demanding the latest TPM report...
