schrödinger's emoticon 

An epic fail by Urban Dictionary as Work of the Day for Oct 4th 2014.
The definition read:
"An emoticon that shows both happy and sad faces. i.e. ):(
The Internet is a horrible and wonderful place ):( <--"

However this aforementioned emoticon does not contain a happy face; it is merely two sad faces. The correct emoticon should be either " (:( " or " ):) "

emotenuse 

Derived from the mathematical term "hypotenuce," it is the longest side of the right-angle triangle formed by the standard emo haircut; the sloped line covering one or both eyes created by the backward, angular mullet favored by emo clones.
The length of an emo crybaby's emotenuce can be calculated with the formula A squared plus B squared equals C squared; C being the variable representing the length of the emotenuse.
