I recently came across a blogpost explaining something I was researching, and the comments beneath were exactly like this. Then I looked up from when it was: May 2006.
Has there ever been a study from like an anthropologist/evolutionary biologist or something about why the :) smiley won out over the =) smiley? I used to be a =) guy back in the day, but over time felt pressured to switch to :) because everyone else was using it. Now, whenever I see someone use =) I just assume they’re a boomer or something.
It came before emojis/a shortcut for them. I would think it’s from T9 keyboards. If you wanted any of those types of characters, it was a cycle of a single button and : comes before =, so doing : ) was a lot less button presses than = )
Oh god, I forgot about the spork thing. The sporks seemed a natural part of the foundation. Where did the sporks go? This would have been perfectly at home on the very first forum my child ass ever joined, and I can feel everything I ever loved evaporating.

Is it bad that I can still read these shitposts in the correct tone?
I read them in Boxxy’s voice, it’s automatic
You truely were random as dice. ;)
Holy shit what a throwback to the past
I miss MySpace.
This made my eyes water
Oh fuck! This caused my brain to reboot after a cascading failure of memories tripping fuses right the way back to 2001.
Did your brain then play the windows XP boot up sound?
Did she ever made friends this day, or is it just a full on copypasta?
