Coworkers and friends alike have told me I’ve been sending smiles wrong. When I send a smile, I type (: not :) For years I thought the recipients of my smiles would be happy to receive a tiny bit of digital love from me. Apparently, this isn’t the case. Apparently, there was an emoticon class called “How to express emotion and if you don’t do it this way you’re a terrible person” everyone was invited to and I wasn’t.
