A local tennis star (Eugenie Bouchard) was playing last night. My mom (she's staying with us 'til tomorrow) is staring at the TV screen, then suddenly she lets out:

Why did the points just go from 15 to 30? Does it depend on the type of shot they use?

62 years on this Earth, and it's the first time she notices the weird-ass tennis scoring system.

62 years is a long time boys.

What the fuck.

i am roughly down 25k to the little old ladies at the club so far this aussie open... they play bridge for 8 hours a day for $4, but have no trouble betting 250-500 on wawrinka to beat djok at +850 :wacko:
 
Might only be me, but to post a smilie lots of times now quicker just to type :kato; than finding it on the smilie wall! Anyway we can get the smilies maybe put in alphabetical order if many posters might have the same issue?

I didn't know that you could do that...but I find myself using the same smileys over and over because trying to find the one I am looking for is buried somewhere. I agree that alphabetical order or some sort of system would be good....probably a pita to do though.?
 
I only type the smilies. I don't have the patience to look them up. Sometimes I give up after a few spelling tries.

Sometimes I just type a phrase that I think should have a smilie and hope for the best.

:onetime:
 
Of course you type the smilies. I actually look up a smiley maybe once every two weeks, tops.


:yousodumb:


No but seriously man, I think I made the same we-need-to-organize-the-smileys post like 4 years ago. Then I changed my approach. You just need to learn your key smilies. Remember the ones you repeat and if you see someone using one you like, mouse over it and it will show you what it is for future reference (except of course you need colons before and after the words).

You get to know a good bunch of them no problem once you set your mind to it.

Here's a question though: do those descriptions you see when you mouse over a posted smiley always match exactly what you need to type (without the colons)?

I feel like they usually match but I have seen some that didn't match. Am I imagining that?
