:3
At first glance, the colon-three emoticon appears innocuous and quaint - a simple cat-like smile. However, beneath its facile form lies multilayered semiotic significance and implications of textual play. The asymmetry between its innocent visage and the hints of deeper meaning evokes theorists of postmodern irony. Upon transmission, ":3" enters dialogic relations that imbue it with contextual valence beyond its basic denotation. It signifies through apophasis - expressing more through what is not directly referenced or stated. The smirk underscores an ambivalence between genuineness and jest that reflects the problematics of virtual communication analyzed by Landow or Turkle. Whether intended sincerely or in jest, the sender relinquishes a measure of interpretive control to the receiver. Thus ":3" emerges as a Derridean trace - always deferred and differing according to the positions and preunderstandings that interlocutors bring. The ":3" holds the ambivalent potential for cheeky subversion and sly subtweeting, all while maintaining an outward appearance of childish naivety. When others see you sending ":3" they know you are thinking on a higher level and reading between the lines. It is the emoji for the woke and aware.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
I bought this friggin thing thinking my whole life would change. Guess what? It still sucks! If this friggin thing can't change my life then I don't want it!
This is a great gift to give after our Urban Dictionary inclusion
It's perfect!! Thank you!
My Name is Walter Hardwell White, My Mug was sent to 308 Negra Aroyal Lane, AQ, New Mexico and arrived on-time and I am very satisfied. My "Glock Dookie" mug is great for my lab work, and my friend Pinkman loves it!
I love this cup! My now ex-husband loves his opioids more than life itself. He would constantly pass out dead to the world the only thing I would here was his death moans. I had to call an aid car for him so many time that I can't remember plus 2 or 3 times the doctors told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have died. Her abandoned me after I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer because I was of no use to him any longer. I have no clue now who must be the one that's obligated to save his life any longer. All I know is I'm free from him now. The only thing I'm waiting for is that he finally overdoses himself & he's dead. I am buying a cup to send to him for our divorce anniversary gift so he can keep it in memory of how he treated me.
I loved it! Excellent quality!
I received the mug as a gift from a friend with whom I exchange "Weekaversary" eMails. I love the concept but am wondering why "aniversary" is spelled with only one "n?"
Wish it had the example text as well, but I loved it anyway
It’s great to be able to create your own mug.

I got this for my dad but he didn’t want it so he just gave it to me. Ever since I took it back my life has been the greatest it’s ever been. I asked my other dad if he wanted but he said no too. Oh well, I get to enjoy this product for myself more.
It was the greatest mug I've ever ordered :skullll
