| | | What does it mean?
What is the point of this "smilie"?
:flip:
What emotions would evoke?

| | | That's a very good question.
ummm....
Possibly embarassment or lonliness, neither of which many people would want to convey.
I'm stumped.

| | | It's called "flip" that's all I know. Maybe for someone that "flipped out" over a ride ;)

| | | It was created a while back when some people wanted a new smilie. We had a list of them to choose from. Something like screaming and the upside down one came out on top and, obviously, the upside down face won.
This smilie is kind of ambiguous. Use it whenever. It could be confusion, the aftermath of a good ride on something, or just thrown in whenever. :flip:

| | | If I wanted to look at an upside-down, purple head then I'd... (rest of sentence edited in the interests of good taste).

| | | It wasn't until I hovered my mouse over it and saw the tag "Flip" that I knew it was an upside down head. I kind of pictured it as looking down on someone's head with a hole drilled in it.

| | | I think its cool.... :flip:
Well I like all the custom TN smilies. But If there was one that I didn’t get it would have to be this one... ;flower; what the hell is it? It says it’s a flower but I just don’t see it, it just doesn’t look like a flower.

| | | Hey, I do my best guys. :kiss: A lot of people a long time ago wanted the inversion smilie, and that's really the only decent thing to come up with -- kind of screaming mouth open in an inversion. Purple because that was a color we didn't have yet, that's all.
:flip:

| | | I'm not putting it down Melissa. I was just having a hell of a time figuring out a situation to use it.

| | | Ten points to Marc for the creativity on that one, but you forgot :sadface:, :=, and :*). Perhaps I'll start another new smilie poll, or keep working on a Thanksgiving one I've got in mind.
