Could anyone tell me what this is!?

Garland · 10-09-2009, 11:23 PM

Now I've seen this all over the internetz these days, and I know atleast a few of you have too. It's a meme with no name. Or at least none to my knowledge. But it's driving me crazy!

What the hell is this thing called? What's it's origin. Information about this thing would be much appreciated. And if any of you say "It's an emoticon" I will (uh) knock you all down!

On the forums I belong to that uses that, its usually called ":awesome:" or ":Plz:"

I've heard it referred to as the awesome smiley. And it is indeed, awesome.
EDIT: After further reserach, I have found that it originates from an emoticon at Something Awful Forums.

My friend once had that smiley as her avatar, and her member title was "PREGGO MY EGGO!"

The combination of it all just sent me to cracking up.
