Ok, I know this sounds lame, but I was wondering if it would be possible to change this emoticon ---> :roll: . It is supposed to be an emoticon for expressing sarcasm, but I find that it has more of a confused/sleepy look on it, thus causing it to be inadequate in expressing what one really means. The rolling of eyes is also quite unnoticeable, and most of the time it just has a raised eyebrow look.

So, I was just thinking, if many people share the same sentiments as me, could it be changed? I kinda liked the old one where the eyes on the face rolled upwards in an obviously sarcastic manner.

*sits back and waits for rotten tomatoes* :P

I agree. But I think it is more like a "What?" smilie. Maybe the code could be :que:

I agree with you Qanda, some of the smilies arent very acccurate of their description.

Its a multi-talented smilie! He can be confused and wonderfully sarcastic at the same time. =D

Its all in the usage I would say. If someone says something sarcastic and uses that face, its obvious that they're being sarcastic, there should be little doubt just because ":roll:" can be taken two ways.

I find sarcasm is spoiled by smilies anyway. What's the fun, if it's obvious? =P
