I come across as more sarcastic and/or mean than I mean to be sometimes, because I am not overly fond of :-) or ;-)

The wink emoticon is quite useful when making a humorous crack to a person who you aren't sure understands a subtle joke.

The problem with emoticons in general is that they take the delicious ambiguity out of a post; and young girls overuse them self-consciously, as a cute affectation designed to charm.
