Evidently I need educated!

I posted a in a "Group Buys" thread last night.
I woke up this morning to find my communications were COMPLETELY misconstrued. It was assumed that I was bashing the thread in some fashion!

I thought the little popcorn eating icon was to show interest?

What am I missing here?

 

[Scutter01]

I think the popcorn guy is usually interpreted to mean "I'm going to sit back and watch the drama unfold".

 

[BloodEclipse]

It is not your fault or problem, that others misconstrued your meaning.
Some use popcorn to represent "I'm going to sit back and watch the train wreck."

I don't know about the drama, the "sit back and watch" part is what I was going for!

I didn't think you were thread bashing. Actually, I was watching the thread, too. I plan on a trip to Hobart at the end of the month and want to see if there were any price increases, etc. I guess I'll be careful when and where I use ,too.

Meh. I use that little guy as a place marker so I know I want to read there even if I don't post. Sometimes it's got nothing to do with drama...
But now I know why I'll be getting all that red rep! LOL

I always took it as "This is gonna be fun to watch." (sarcasm tags optional)

Anyone else have smileys of which they're not sure the meaning? Anyone else have smileys they combine for different meanings than were intended (other than just adding the one)?

Maybe we'll all edjimacate each other here!

Blessings,
Bill

I have no idea what any of the following mean..



Macarena Banana?
My weird neighbor when I was growing up?
Why would anybody do that to themselves?:bigballs:
This one I get:moon:
Not sure about the assgrab?!?!
Everybody loves BACON
I just like this one!!
Flushed?
I like him too!:fawk:

 

[redneckmedic]

What happens when you mix and match the smillies? Do you change the meaning altogether...like Chinese symbols?

= I love Bacon

= my two cents or my opinion


What about this?
