Depends how tolerant of alternative opinions you are. Many people aren't.

Welcome to the forum :relax:
You mean folk like myself who thinks Clegg is a lying two faced bastard. :ask:
“I wish no harm to any human being, but I, as one man, am going to exercise my freedom of speech. No human being on the face of the earth, no government is going to take from me my right to speak, my right to protest against wrong, my right to do everything that is for the benefit of mankind. I am not here, then, as the accused; I am here as the accuser of capitalism dripping with blood from head to foot.”

No specific tool as such, but you can group 20 favorite smilies in an easily enough accessible place if you do the following:

1 - click on your own username -> you land on your own Profile page
2 - click on the PM: Send private message link
3 - compose a PM to yourself, choosing an assortment of smilies that you like (max. 20 allowed per message) - remember to actually send it before you continue with the next step (alternatively, you can save it as a draft)

4 - from the User Control Panel's Private messages tab's left menu choose Rules, folders & settings
5 - create a folder for such useful stuff as favorite smilies
6 - save your smilies PM in that new folder (when you're reading the PM, under the PM content is a menu for "Move to folder...")

Then, when you need a smiley, you open a new browser tab, navigate to that PM (or draft, from the "Manage PM drafts" menu) and press the "Quote" button to get the smiley codes (a draft opens directly in the edit mode, so you need to remember the smiley codes pretty well for this to be really useful).

A tad complicated, but it works.
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

One of the seminal movies of the 1980s.
Maybe it never made it to Oz?
My spare time for movie watching declined after the 70's, so please forgive me. Seeing that it's a Gilliam movie I am surprised that I haven't seen it. Then again, it's always possible I saw it whilst pissed and it wasn't retained in the memory bank.
Although it may look like a forum, this site is actually a crowd-sourced science project modelling the slow but inexorable heat death of the universe.

Tony, if you like a smiley, right click and "view image" (unless you're retarded use a Mac). Then save the link to a folder. I use Palemoon, so I can put folders above the tabs, and I have one for "immediate smileys". You can use our smileys on any forum that allows images. :plot:

Also, not the link to the Rationalia Smiley Respository above the smileys. There are one or two more smileys there.

Hey! Most of them have text names so you can search for one. Most.

Tony, don't go into the NSFW page at work. Just sayin'.
