Bonemojis

[HuskyNan]

We Boneyarders (yes, that means you, too, regular posters that root for other teams) talk about the need for a sarcasm emoji, you know, one of the smiley face thingies

So I thought we could kick this around, maybe have one of our graphics wizards help us out. We need a sarcasm emoji but what else? I like the "beating a dead horse" one I've seen on other boards, personally. Any other thoughts?

I think the last emoji on the right can be used as sort of a 'sarcasm' face, at least to me. Definitely the dead horse emoji (thwack-thwack-thwack) would be useful here on the BY .. I also think a laugh-out-loud emoji would be useful, similar to the ones below. The green one we have is more of a Cheshire cat grin and the pink one doesn't fit all situations either.

My two cents:

1. thumbs up
2. thumbs down
3. clapping hands
4. move along
5. namaste

Give me some hearts "love" emoji's. I often want to express my love for the way our team plays or how our girls honor the game.

 

[Orangutan]

I've used and all as sarcasm/just kidding emojis depending on the situation.

 

[ochoopsfan]

I have used for any post I feel needs it, i.e. sarcasm

Can't the rolling eyes emoji be used for sarcasm? See In Praise of the Eye-Roll Emoji, the Sarcasm Indicator We've Always Needed Also I have seen the use of the upside down smilely face. https://qph.ec.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-c662b8d06f922494df83b93e3ee76082.webp

I always used whenever i was being sarcastic..... though I also use it sometimes when Im being facetious.

Anyway..... I'll just wait around to see if any new face/symbol is introduced

I think (in the VAST majority of cases) anyone who needs that much help to detect sarcasm deserves what he or she gets in responses from other posters. But if you must have something, how about a picture of a Geiger counter?

 

[CaliHuskyFan]

How about a Husky emoji? Or more than one, including a Husky with a trophy.

I have long felt we are emoji (what is the plural?) deprived, leading to misunderstanding, and on the other hand less emoji wars. On balance, I think we need more, and ask that a committee of responsible BYers (that excludes me) and Biff study the technical issues related thereto and come up with a set we can vote on. In keeping with the civil tone of this board, I would hope the douple finger flip off will not be in the list, though I think it's pretty neat!

 

[oldude]

I'm shocked, shocked to find that sarcasm is going on in here.....

love 1-3 especially. Maybe add a disapproving moderator emoji...

[Plebe]

I want something like this:

Eyes looking upward, suggestive of an "eye roll," but without the smile of our already existent bemused bonemoji.

Is that your new look Nan?
Sure looks a lot like Gabby?

I still like the little ole lady from years back.

I hope this doesn't seem sacrilegious but VolNation has a very long list of emojis, some of which probably ought not see the light of day here.

But I appreciate the mods bringing up the subject because I have often felt limited by our choices.

VN is particularly strong on the animated emojis, and my personal favorite, which always gives me the giggles, is the one that does some elaborate jig and then falls forward flat on his face. Particularly apropos of that team.

How about one for the old canard "thank you for your interest in UConn women's basketball"?

The always popular is close to appropriate here too but, reflecting on this further, this once popular phrase has faded from common use...so I conclude it may be overkill. Nevertheless, for completeness and to refresh some old memories, I'll post it. (While watching the Bee Gees special...).
