I've seen a new smiley lately, the <3 one. Took me a while to recognize that it's a heart. What is wrong with people? Can't they do a heart the old fashioned way, like this ♥?

For those who don't know how to do it. & hearts ; without the spaces. That's ampersand,hearts,semicolon. &hearts ; or & hearts; or &hea rts; or whatever, just without spaces. Just... stop using that stupid smiley.

Side note: Smiley or smily?

Yes, but that only shows up in certain fonts. While a less-than-three is a less-than-three in any vaguely Roman alphabet -- and it's not a smiley, it's miniature ASCII art. ;)

It's all about compatibility. You and your ♥ are in fact a Fiendish Plot of the Microsoftocracy. *nods*

But that's okay. I <3 you anyway. ;)

Look you. I just... the <3 thing bugs me, okay? It looks like a sick ice cream cone!

Only if you look at it one way. If you look at it the other way, it looks like...

...somebody mooning you?
