The need we have to add an emoticon to a chat conversation after the person you are chatting with makes a comment. In doing so you are a) confirming you got the message b) letting them know how you feel about it c) buying yourself time to think of something meaningful to say.

Cute CSI cop: "Hey after I get done investigating this crime scene, would you like to get a drink with me so we can discuss this case in-depth? I have a lot of good details for your story..."
Smart, savvy reporter: "No thanks. I just consulted my 'Emthics' quick-reference guide, and it says that I shouldn't date sources because it could turn into a conflict of interest."
Crazy, ranting person calling the newsroom: "HELLO! IDIOT, WHY DID YOU SHOW A PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE ON YOUR STATION? I DON'T WANT TO SEE MORONS ON TV...YOU'RE A MORON, I'M NEVER WATCHING AGAIN!"
Calm, level-headed, respectful reporter answering phone: "Well, we don't have any control over network programming. We are only a local affiliate. I'm very sorry that you're upset, but you are yelling at the wrong person..."
Crazy, ranting person: "WELL IT'S NOT LIKE I CAN CALL UP CHARLES GIBSON AND TELL HIM HE'S AN IDIOT...IDIOT!"

Get the Emote(Emoticon) mug.the act of responding with the opposite emoticon rather than the appropriate emoticon when commenting on a status update, usually on Facebook but not limited to. This oddity invariably leads to confusion for everyone yet is hilarious to only the oppo-emoticoner and a select few of totally awesome somewhat twisted sharp-minded people that appreciate it. The hilarity varies inversely with the severity or emotional tone of the status.
ex.
girl1: "Craig has totally gone overboard with the oppo-emoticoning"
girl2: "whaaa-Shut up!!"
girl1: "Ohhh yea! He oppo-emoticoned the Sh*t out of my profile the other day. It wouldn't be that bad but now i have to explain to my mom why one of my friends is happy grandma has cancer!"
ex.
Girl1: "I don't get it. Why is Dave all smiley-face about me failing my class and not being able to get my internship? What did i ever do to him?"
girl2: "Girl you didn't know? Dave oppo-emoticons. He oppo_emoticons everybody. The guy has no regard for human emotion when it comes to his oppo-emoticoning. Especially when someones dreams or fears are involved.
It used to bother me but now i think it's cute, Dave's funny....but in your case sooooo wrong"
