A emoticon used to express happiness or joy
I am going to my friends house :)
an emoticon that was first used in 1982 and represents smile face
person 1: i just killed my dog :)
person 2: wtf
person 1:i just came back from school :)
person 2: that's nice :)
The analog smiling face.
It's used either as:
A. an alternative to the emojis
B. a more psycho-like smile (as the bracket gives it an unnaturally wide grin)
Bob: Tommy, where has Jake gone?
Tommy: :)
Bob: I'm calling the police.
A colon and a right parentheses can create a sideways and friendly smiley face.
When I play games we with you, I'm happy :)
