Angry Observations concerning smileys

Not that it matters at all, but I'm compelled to share this with you all.

Observation 1:
- I love this smiley and the angry one in the subject heading also. If feel they really express what they intend. Cudos!

Observation 2:
- This smiley looks awfully gay. Or at least not masculine. I can't imagine John Wayne making use of it.

Observation 3:
- What is this smiley supposed to express? Cool? Not that it can't, but I fail to see how during the course of a message a person could or want to invoke coolness and therefore want to include this smiley.

Observation 4:

:notworthy :banghead: - These are the best!

smileys are a crutch for those who can't communicate effectively communicate with the written word.

Well, from this board, I like this one: and this one: and sometimes you just need to put one of these in:

But there are more, better smilies that can be found.

Here is one, and here is another.
