Since the mudcat forum coding refurb,
I miss being able to use emoticons to indicate visually when a post is intended in cheeky tongue in cheek ironic humour.
This is essential for informing certain humourless nitpicking forum pedants
who need such things spelled out for them...

Those same difficult individuals also do not understand self depreciating humour,
but instead misread it as 'weakness' they can later exploit maliciously in 'battle'...
