... and you.
Here is a primer for all the newbies, and those without a sense of humor, as to how the smilies (i.e. emoticons in geek speak) can change the "tone" of a thread.
First, these smilies are generaly regarded to mean "I'm Kidding"
:p
:D
:crossx:
:devil:
:wink:

These generally mean "I'm serious"
:mad:
:yuk:
:argue:
:cry:
:burningm:
The list goes on.

Now lets see an example.
Let's say you see some one post
You're a Dick!!!! :D note the "Big grin" smilie. That means the person was kidding
If you see
You're a Dick!!! :mad: note the "Mad" smilie. That means they were talking about Jordy. OK, not really... well, maybe... anyway, the mad smilie shows that someone is probably serious.

Now if you see
Your boat is a broke ass piece of crap :yuk: :yuk: :D :D :D
Note the "big grin" smilie cancels out the "yuk" smilie. This person is kidding around with someone. It is not a personal attack. Settle down.
A good rule of thumb: A :D will override any other smilie posted.

Wouldn't be talking about me. I'm an asshole. ;)
However, since you brought up the broke down piece of crap boaters club, I assume you're talking about the North Nogales Boaters Posse. :D :D :D

This is a perfect example. You should note that the "big grin" smilie after his lame attempt at humor by beating a dead horse. Because of this, I won't make a personal attack about parts falling off his whacker. :D

Ooooww. Back and forth usage of the smiley. Those are complicated moves. They score high with the judges and are hard to pull off. :p
