Title: A derp message icon is needed.
Post by: The Illusive Man on April 27, 2013, 09:14:38 pm
No seriously, how else is someone supposed to warn fellow posters of weapons grade stupid contained within a thread? Won’t someone think of the brain cells?!?

Whatever this derp icon is, it should NOT involve Derpy Hooves. I have no desire to insult Derpy with the stupid some threads tend to bring in.

We have a pony thread in Entertainment and Television. That's where pony talk goes. Not here or any other unrelated thread.

Anyway, back on topic. I see no reason why a simple warning in the title wouldn't suffice. Hell, I never even notice the message icons in the first place (though, naturally, I can't speak for others on this one).

That was on topic, Derpy hooves is one possible icon for a "derp" thread.

Since it will probably have to be from the small emoti icon universe...well...I would suggest the same buck-toothed, bulge-y cross-eyed, tongue-pokey emoti I've seen while lurking the threads at RR. It's from an older, free set of emoti's, I think.

A small, easily recognizable image denoting stupidity, based off of rage comics. (http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/derp)
