I noticed a couple of days back there was certain response I've received from my last post, that were nothing more than emoticons. As far as I remember it I got it twice. Not sure how would I feel about it because emoticons can...

I just realized Facebook has these emoticons for likes.
They either tell the other person you like their post, love their post, are angry at their post or are Wowed by it.
This is kind of silly. Don't you think words are the...

I have been seeing a lot of my fellow mylotters using emoticons! I have tried doing it manually which is :-) or :p but it does not appear the same as theirs.

That is the question! So, I guess I am really asking about how all the wonderful and silly little emoticons I see here are produced? Is this a function on your keyboard, or phone? Where do you get them? I am just curious in case I...

I must admit that I spend a lot of time on FaceBook. I connect with friends and family there and love some of the memes that are posted as well.

Well, I'm still new and can't seem to find a way of attaching emoticons to my posts and comments? Does anyone know where they are, or what keys create them?
