<p>Is the correct version :/ or :\ ? Who started this smilie? Was it Warts? Is it possible to have that face in RL?</p>
<p>:/ has been around for a while. I usually use it in times of uncertainty, doubt, regret, or worry.</p>
<p>I’ve never used : ? before in my life though. Or heard of it, actually.</p>
<p>I use :, and it’s supposed to be used when what is being said seems redundant, stupid or not possible. At least that’s what I use it for. I think you can make that face if your face is flexible.</p>
<p>It’s =/ .</p>
<p>I don’t think that there is a designated correct version.</p>
<p>Yeah. 
and =/ are pretty much interchangeable. I do it all the time. :D</p>
<p>i use :\ in times of uncertainty or awkwardness.</p>
<p>i use in times of sadness or stressfulness.</p>
<p>…totes true.</p>

Who used ‘: ?’?</p>
<p>‘=/’ looks rather weird. What is the ‘=’?</p>

<p>:/ 10char</p>
<p>I’ve never in my life used :\ until now. I always use :/</p>
<p>I prefer =/.<br>
The “eyes” look more disturbed and confused.</p>
<p>Oh, ‘=’ are eyes. I was wondering if it was supposed to be the nose or something.
Trying to imagine someone with vertical eyes. Looks weird in my head.</p>
<p>I prefer : cause my eyes normally look that way, not long, flat lines</p>
<p>Does anyone know often is ‘:/’ used off CC? I can’t google it. :/</p>
<p>^ I know lots of people who use it (not on CC), if that helps…</p>
<p>271,000 matches</p>
<p>^^Thanks</p>
<p>^How did you do that?
[color is um, I can't remember :/ ]Never thought I was that much of a Google n00b[/color]</p>
<p>It’s a secret ;)</p>
<p>I got 238,000 for CC and 5480 for HSL…odd.</p>
