This one's a really niche joke and probably the kind of thing only I would find funny. If you want it explained to you, read on:

Bingo is a game in which a 'caller' generates random numbers, often by pulling lotto balls at random from a tumbling basket, and players try to match those numbers on pregenerated random sheets.

In Britain, there's a century-plus old tradition of particular numbers having catchphrases associated with them, some of which relate to the shapes of the numbers, e.g. "legs 11", "two little ducks, 22", "duck and a crutch, 27".

I found myself this morning wondering if there are #emoticons or #puns that can be made using Roman numerals that would lend themselves to use by a hypothetical ancient Roman bingo caller, like:

- legs two, based on II looking like a pair of legs and a nod to "legs eleven"
- growing up the wall, based on IV being phonetically similar to the word "ivy"
- seagull in flight, because sketched seagulls are sometimes compared to the shape of letter Vs
- long-nosed dead man for XIX, as if an emoticon with crosses for eyes and an "I" for a nose
- pornography for XXX, because XXX is sometimes used as a stand-in for marking something as pornographic
- use your tongue for LIX, because it could be pronounced like "licks"
- smiling in a blindfold for the emoticon CI, where the C looks like a smile and the I being a line where the eyes should be

They say that explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog. You may understand it better, but the frog doesn't survive.

I'm not very fond of emojis because they look so un-typographical. Break the flow of reading.

I really love emoticons, on the other hand, but —
Because standard smileys constantly get turned into emojies 🙂, and because nose-smileys are weird and old-fashioned :-), and non-nose smileys look like someone's head's been compressed in a really unhealthy way :), however leaving a space in the middle can result in a line break inside the smiley, my best option is now:
• End the sentence with normal punctuation,
• Unicode character 2007 (large space),
• Colon,
• Unicode character 2008 (small space),
• Closing bracket.

"2007-:-2008-)" is easy enough to remember. Looks like this: : )

If you're honest with yourself, what style of faces do you use in online communication?

Not the vibe you'd like to give off, but what you really do in practice. And let's limit it to personal communication, not your worksona.
