[suggestion] daily mail smiley

Sheeps · 2010-01-30 18:03:11

I'm proposing the first new smiley since :pac: came along. This smiley is a daily mail smiley gimmick that will see use as an ironic catchphrase when ever someone quotes or sources a thread from a mucky tabloid article or shady information source. Thoughts?

I just wish to be able to retort to an argument or post that has cited a source like the daily mail with minimal effort but in a way that still shits all over their post.

It's less of a smiley than it is a macro.

Is that a small penis smiley? Or a large hand one.... I cannot decide.
There are two slots to fill in the list of smileys, lets fill them.

Worst suggestion ever.
In addition, the Irish Times is also a rag.

Also doubles up as sly Daily Mail visual brand reinforcement, so no.
