Where would modern communications be without emoticons? How would we be able to express ourselves without them? With just words? That'll never work. The Egyptians didn't use hieroglyphics for nothing. Look at emoticons as a modern descendant of those. Or don't. It doesn't matter. What matters is this: \o/and this (;,;) and this (⌐□_□). And now you can add thisヽ(◜◦ᴥ◦◝)ﾉ to that list.OKFocus, the leftfield design agency based in New York run by Ryder Ripps, Jules LaPlace, and Eric Hu—who were responsible for the interactive, Photoshop-themed alpha-channel video experience for Tanlines' "Not The Same"—have decided to shake up the world of emoticons, with their newmoticons.ヽ(◜◦ᴥ◦◝)ﾉ is one of them. It's called "dongbear"—why? Well, because not only do you get to generate new emoticons ("Over 500,000 possible combinations!") with OKFocus' "unicode emoticon generator" but you get to name the newly generated creations too—if you wish. And then you can express your mood in textual ways you never thought possible! Like, "I am totes ᕦ♨ڡ♨ᕤ and now I'm all ✌(७_ʖ७)✌ but I know it'll end and I'll be like ⊂⛢_⛢⊃."You can check out some of the newly born emoticons below and find the rest here:✌(༎ຶ▿༎ຶ)✌ ━━► pyrrhic victory⊂⛢_⛢⊃ ━━► happiness is an illusion, we'll all die alone▞▞▞| ◦ ⃝ ෴ ◦ ⃝ |▞▞▞ ━━► ska killsミo﹏ुoミ ━━► my hair is made of bacon. can't reach it with my tongue. damn you god⊂◜◡◝⊃ ━━► uber happyᕦ♨ڡ♨ᕤ ━━► Coffe Addict^ຈ෴ຈ^ ━━► The Paragon of Animals✌⎦ↂどↂ⎣✌ ━━► take more Pepto Bismol✌(७_ʖ७)✌ ━━► awake for three days and not hating itAnd for more on OKFocus, watch our documentary below.@stewart23rd[via Waxy]
