Similar in structure to the Pirate emoticon "P )" the emo emoticon replaces the colon and semi-colon in a standard emoticon with a capital "F" representing the cliche half covered face of an emo kid.
Since emo kids generally don't express many emotions other than despair, bleakness, rage, or indifference their emoticons therefore lack variety.
Since emo kids are never happy the happiest form of an emo emoticon is as follows:
F |
The standard indifferent form is: F /
Finally, the following characters should not be used when typing an emo emoticon since it would be contradictory to their nature: "P" ")" "" "D" "O"

The ridiculous internet "language" often found in chatrooms and on messageboards that confuse more people than ever due to its idiocy. Examples are ^_^ and ^_ ~ and o.0 and even more complex emoticons than that. Usually the same geeks that tAlk LiKe tHis and are into role playing and sci-fi garbage (Star Trek, Farscape, etc.) and fantasy crap (Lords of the Rings, Harry Potter, etc). Also, they seem to be socially inept creatures who feel the need to fit in somehow so they adopt this geek-speak nonsense.
I love anime emoticons <<*>> ^_^ ^_~ o.0 0.0 oooh I'm having so much fun! Must run along now, Farscape is gonna be on tv!!
by anime is just a fad, it'll go away soon June 25, 2003

Emma's quick-reference guide to journalism ethics.
When your working on deadline and need refresher, no Dan Rather's here....
1. See the story, hear the story, report the story...accurately.
2. R-E-S-P-E-C-T...find out what it means to me...you, interview subjects, co-workers, random MOS, ranting man that calls the newsroom everyday.
3. I am Miss/Mr Independent! (No, not the Kelly Clarkson song) Don't take bribes, don't date sources, avoid conflicts of interest, be fair and professional.
4. Be accountable! Double check facts, don't get defensive when someone else fact checks, show good taste, and disclose any unavoidable conflicts upfront.

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 Emthics mug.Also known as a smiley attack. An emoticon raid is where a user on a forum or im posts loads of emoticons in one post. This annoys people a lot as it causes computers to slow down (especially low-end ones) and you have scroll the page for like 5 minutes to get past the post containing the emoticon raid.
