I've always wondered why a facepalm emoticon would be referred to as a dog.
However, today I noticed two things:
- if you hover over the icon it says "d'oh"
- G is right next to H on the keyboard.
I'm guessing it was a typo that was never fixed.
Is the :dog: emoticon meant to be :doh:?

"I was wondering if you'd like to try Magic Mushrooms"
"Oooh I dont know. Sounds a bit scary"
"It's not scary. You just lose a sense of who you are and all that sh!t"

I suspect you're right mushy mushy.
Although there are a few other mysteries about this website which, when you discover them, might well lead you to think that everything isn't what it first seems...

I get the d'oh, I just don't get the dog. Unless dog was always intended to be doh, but there was a typo when creating the emoticons.

Re: Is the :dog: emoticon meant to be :doh:?
I always wondered about that too though. Didn’t think about d’oh, but wondered what the relevance of “dog” is.

Re: Is the :dog: emoticon meant to be :doh:?
Ohhh now I get it.
If you click this emoticon it types :_dog: (without the underscore), I never noticed this to be honest hence my confusion.
