I'd guess razz ( :p ), eyebrow ( :eyebrow: ), eyeroll ( :roll: ), and facepalm ( :palm: ) in that order.

I don't see that as a "you just got banned" smiley, I see that as a "Big Barry is watching you" one.

Err... if Big Barry is watching me, I probably shouldn't have exposed it... :unsure:

we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

I really, really try not to use them. Especially the facepalming one, that one makes me want to kill everything and everyone that has hands.

I most often find myself using the Raspberry or wink smilies, since I use them to communicate sarcasm or an insult not to be taken seriously.
