Ok, the new smilies are cool but some of them seem inscrutable to me. Help me find their meaning!

:shutup: - bacon face?
:homestar: - wtf?
<_< vs  :glare: ?

 :homestar: = I can't decide which smilie to use so I'll just use this one.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

You do realize if you hover over them for a moment, a little popup script appears with their title, right?  Not to mention their shortcuts are titles as well.
"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

"Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did."

Martinus

Yeah but what the fuck is "homestar"? I mean this seems like some popculture reference, but I just don't get it.

I'm assuming the guy with the band aids on his mouth is attempting to prohibit himself from saying something he feels he shouldn't.

I don't much see the purpose for it on languish.

We already have :zipped: for that.

They each have their pros and cons I suppose.

With a zipper, you can easily get your tongue caught and I expect that would hurt as much as getting your foreskin stuck in one.

On the other hand, unless you're using glue that won't stick very well, ripping off the band aids may also bring with it some residual lip tissue and man, that REALLY hurts.

The intro page suggests  :homestar: = retard, but then I watched one of the shorts and am not sure.

It is odd. Maybe if this was 10 years ago a Homestar Runner could be amusing but...I didn't even know that thing was still going.

He's putting bacon in his mouth.  Can't you northern mouth breathers get anything fucking right?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
