An emoticon used to express a "cute" mood, or something "cute." Commonly associated with anime, the " ; " represents eyes such as: ;-). The " 3 " portrays lips resembling the "sexy pout," only more pooched together almost like to kiss.
An emote normally used in IM and (anime) forums.
If you draw it on a piece of paper and/or look at it from the side, you will be engulfed in the endlessness of cuteness factor.
Kinda the '~nya!'(japanese phonetication of english, kitty sound) of the internet. Used to indicate coyness, cleverness, anime-geekiness, cuteness and funny (if not questionably oafy) behavior.

a number coming after 2, but not overshadowing it. Also a number coming directly before 4 but refussing ro be bullied or made feel less than by it. Strong number, yet emotionally sensative. In other words a number that knows its place.
