Could someone please explain to me the "freak" smilie

[sundog]

I don't understand

:freak:

[XanaDUer]

1. Don't feel bad

I never got that emoticon myself. :shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. He's playing with a joystick

I've always thought it looks more like he's thinking, tapping his head and writing with a pen or pencil, but if you look closely you'll see the joystick.

[sundog]

4. no, he's picking his nose or something

[Droopy]

9. Yeah

I think it was originally intended to mean video game freak, but I guess you can use it any way you see fit.

[sundog]

12. I just don't see a joystick there... it's something much more sinister

:shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. You know, like for a video game

that kind of joystick. You can see the base, and the handle is in his hand. Look closely, and you'll see at one point he's pulling the trigger on the thing.

[sundog]

14. ok, if you say so (but I still don't believe it)

:smoke:

[DS1]

15. I always thought he was digging his brain out with his finger

and what you call the joystick base was the pile. :shrug:

[sundog]

16. ewww, that's siiiiick

:smoke:

[Zomby Woof]

19. I am serious here

I thought it was a guy picking his nose and building a big pile of boogers with it. I am kind of let down if that is truly a joystick.

DAMMIT, I think my interpretation is far more true to the 'freak' aspect. So that is how I will always see it. :freak:

[sundog]

21. Yeah, I just don't buy the whole "joystick" theory...

That's just taking the easy way out... I mean, since when the hell does using a joystick imply "freak" ... no, it's not a joystick...

[Blue-Jay]

3. It looks like he's playing with his weiner.

:freak:

[sundog]

5. rotfl!

[Amaya]

6. He's shifting?

:shrug:

[texas1928]

7. Haven't you ever been playing a game

and your joystick craps out? you have never gotten freaky with your UH nevermind.

[dolo amber]

8. It looks to me like

he's sniffing a pile of doodoo. :freak:

:D

[sundog]

10. that's just what I was going to say... it looks like a pile of shit , no?

[XanaDUer]

11. And he looks like Homer Simpson to me.

N/t.

[alphafemale]

17. I'd thought he was picking his nose and eating it...

But maybe that is a joystick.

[Donkeyboy75]

18. Perhaps you could ask Skinner in ATA?

:shrug:

I don't get it either.

20. It's just one of the mysteries of the universe. eom
