What’s more aggravating than chatting with someone over your favorite instant messaging platform and you can’t really show how you feel? Like someone pisses you off and you want to tell them to “Fuck Off!”, but all the emoticons are happy or not expressive enough.
I’ve seen this from time to time but never really put much research into what it is or how it works, but I really wanted to give someone the bird, or flip them off, but I couldn’t. Then I remembered seeing someone that used the keyboard characters, or ASCII characters to show a picture. It’s called ASCII Art, or ASCII Pictures.
Perfect example:

I think these things are great because they work anywhere. You just have to copy/paste into your IM window.
For my own use, I’ll start posting them here. Hopefully they can help someone else show their thougts.
