I had to upload the gif to get it in my post. But I know some blogs do have them available to use in the comment box, mostly wordpress blogs I think. :)<br/><br/>Christine - one guy I know uses it in every single forum post he writes. It's horrible. :(<br/><br/>Diddums - I just keep away from them as much as possible based on how much they offend me, just in case! ;)<br/><br/>Flutter - A lot of people do use it.. and it's funny me posting this a couple of days after the PC post. I really think I should not be offended by it but on an Australian forum I used to love and frequent it seems to have spread like wildfire. People I know and have watched grow up from 16 year olds into young men, people I had so much respect for, and now this is a place of rolly eyes and much sarcasm, it's a really horrible thing to see. I don't go there very often these days.<br/><br/>Emily - The thing is, I don't think most people believe it can be so offensive. Most people think an emoticon is an emoticon and they don't really mean much.. but they can..<br/><br/>Thanks for the comments ya'all. I think I need to be a bit less easily offended when it comes to the rolly eyes. :)<br/><br/>Snoskred<br/>http://www.snoskred.org/ River - I don’t think there is a way to access them in the comment box..
