Before Emojis, there were Emoticons

Before Emojis were introduced, which are animated pictures characters, people started with Emoticons.

Emoticons:  A representation of a facial expression such as :-) (representing a smile), formed by various combinations of keyboard characters and used in electronic communications to convey the writer's feelings or intended tone.

Here are a few!

:-) = happy
;-) = wink
:-( = sad
:'-( = tear
:-/ = Confused or upset
>_< = angry
-__- = stale face
O_o= Weird/ In shock
