06/24/2002 Entry: "Ashton Anchors Emoticons, Or I Am A Gigantic Dork."

More proof that I am a hopeless dork with no life to speak of:

A while back, a friend and I were pretending to be Ashton Anchors and Ernest Raviede at each other (yes, I know they can't meet in the game, shush). And at one point, she, as the three-eyed Tetragenian Ernest, used the following emoticon at me:
^^^

Well! I, as the dragon-enhanced Ashton, came right back with:
^^ ^^ ^^

And I was so enamored of her little invention that I kept thinking about it. Ashton emoticons. Ashton emoticons! As if this didn't make me enough of a giant dork, I then made the leap to thinking 'hey! I could make a whole set of Ashton Anchors emoticons and use them as LiveJournal mood icons! I'm so smart!'

And so I happily went into Photoshop and started tricking up the little GIFs. But, as we all know, I'm frightfully lazy. So after doing the fifteen 'base' emotions, I quit, and I never bothered to pick the project back up.
So, in lieu of doing anything useful with the Ashton emoticons, I'm just going to blog 'em.. Or, more properly, blog a snapshot of the Photoshop document I'll probably never go back to, because actually typing said emoticons out would probably freak out half the browsers in existence.

Picture will open in a new window. If you like the emoticons, feel free to use 'em or type 'em into your blog sidebar or whatever the heck you want.

I'm a dooooooooooork!

LOL!! How creative and innovative of you, Moon. =^_^=

I do things...kind of like this too. I mean, mostly they are thoughts, and not actions like this is. If you're a dork, so am I. And I likes it. In fact, I already know I am a dork. And it's cool, isn't it?
