Emoticon culture exists as a replacement for body language and tone of voice which is not possible through the medium of electronic communication.
1. Using emoticons to express feelings, inflexion, tone of voice and context when using e-mail/SMS/MSN etc without which may lead the recipient to misconstrue the meaning of what is said or interpret a joke as a serious comment or point of view. 2. The fear of being misinterpreted when using electronic communication that compels you to use emoticons extensively. 3. In e-mail forums, the use of emoticons when making contentious statements and to minimise the backlash and pillory one might otherwise be subjected to for expressing your true opinion. a: " >:O You complete c***. How can you possibly say that? :S "
b: " : ARRRGH! it woz meant 2 B a joke. I forgot to :P at the end of the sentence :( That's emoticon culture for you :/ " Note: This is quite different from Emoticon Rape (eg: " LOL! :D :D That was so funny :D :D :D ") Emoticon Culture is created by fear and peer pressure. A victim of Emoticon Culture could easily descend to the level of Emoticon Whore. |

Cannabis Culture is a marijuana enthusiast Magazine published in Canada. Unlike High Times it focusses strictly on cannabis related issues and contains less ads and American nonsense. Unfortunately that doesn't really say much. The magazine's owner Marc Emery is a false prophet, an arrogant sod, and a downright nasty individual. He talks shit to people on his online discussion forum if they don't agree with everything he says, and sadly 90% of the users on that forum have been brainwashed by him, so if you disagree with Marc Emery, you're immediately branded a narc and scumbag by the very people who are supposed to be promoting peace and understanding. The entire organization and almost everyone afiliated with them are just one massive gang of hypocrites. I myself am pro-cannabis and for the complete legalization of the plant, but Cannabis Culture refuses to acknowledge the very real fact that addiction to marijuana quite possible, and we have seen it happen to many people. Although the drug is not physically addictive, many many individuals become psychologically addicted to it, as with many other substances. Until Cannabis Culture will address this important issue and stop with the egotistical drivel they publish that is in its own right their very own form of propaganda, I will never buy a single issue of their magazine or visit their website, or go to rallies organized by Marc Emery. I'm pro Cannabis, anti-Cannabis Culture. more...
