(more) A smiley, also known as an emoticon, is a modern writing invention that we use to express feeling or emotion in a text or online message. Smileys are usually a set of special characters that, when tilted on their side, feature a certain expression or appearance.
For example, if you want to express a feeling of joy or happiness with your message, you attach the :-) smiley. You.ll notice that when tilted, these characters resemble a smiling face, hence the term .smiley.. :-) is one of the most popular emoticons around. Other common smileys include :-( (sad), :-S (worried or nervous), :-P (tongue out) and :-D (grinning).
The use of smileys has become so common that a single-character smiley symbol,☺, is now available in many word processing programs like Microsoft Word and Open Office.

This article lists some of the weirdest smileys found on the Web. Included with each emoticon is a brief description of the emoticon and a way to use it. We hope that by the time you finish reading this, you.ll be able to put these weird smileys into good use - or will at least have an idea of which ones to avoid. (less)
