Emoji &amp; LOL Abuse

I find it embarrassing for people that will make a snide personal attack and then follow it up with a smiley Emoji or "LOL". Or they will post some nonsensical reply to a lost debate because they have to get the last word in. And most of these comments are usually followed by either "LOL" or that stupid, cigar chomping Cowboy emoji.

Do they really think themselves clever? Do they believe that Pinside is so stupid that no one notices how desperate they are?
I find that sort of thing low functioning and they lose all respect.

I think it's like when you say, "With all due respect, you are an asshole!"

It's like, the "LOL" is supposed to excuse whatever horrible things you said before it.

Sometimes I wish we would do away with all of the emojis. On the other hand there are a couple that I use on occasion and I probably need to use them more.

I can tell you this, if detective Nick Yemana(ccjacksoo7) did not have the head banging emoji, he would go into a deep depression! He seems to pop up in virtually every F.S. ad.

Hey, at least they aren't referring to themselves in the 3rd person.

This thread is as useless as the top 100 pinside rankings complaint threads... When you get so meta you're complaining of posting styles, maybe it's time to trade in for a new pinball machine to resolve the boredom...

This site is filled with desperate people. Would be nice if they were at least interesting or funny, but the number of people who point out my username (some of them have done it a few times) like they are einstein is too damn high. Would be nice if they ended it with LOL every time just to accentuate it.

I believe it’s a bleed-over from the Karen’s on Facebook. There’s a whole group called “Um Okay Sweaty” dedicated to mocking those who always call you condescending petty names like “sweety” or “honey”

The Lol emoji types are also a FB thing.

“ I woulda paid you 5 bucks but whatever.

When I see your name now I think highly intelligent anonymous Poster that will help you with maddening SS quirks and give you no nonsense (translation no bullshit) guidance and advice.
If Folks like you and Quench and Herbert Sharp went away Pinside would flatten like an emoji.

I do as well, but I always pick the wrong one first. <- that looks more like it's commenting on a recockulus post, although it's the "impressed" emoji.

Yeah, always thought the label on that one was off. I use it time to time and not when I'm imressed, rather the opposite.
