Could we have a 'tears of laughter' emoji.  I use this , which is a mobile emoji but perhaps there is a forum equivalent.

I will see what I can find - that one is just a bit too small, and if I make it bigger it will get fuzzy, but there must be other similar ones.
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

@Acorn, the one I use was scaled down from a much bigger image to about the same size as the forum text, but making it bigger works.  I also agree with @Iminei that there needs to be a cull.

Now to me, that looks like someone crying, not laughing.  Is there not one that's more laughing, less crying?

Have you never cried with laughter.  In any event the crying emojis are and

I'll have another look later, see if we can get a consensus from a few of them.  There is one that rolls around a bit somewhere, that might be good.

Interestingly, I have removed quite a few emojis, and only one person noticed one of them once.

I noticed that the pins had gone but only because I use them as stars and sunshine!  :S
I would like a rolling around one please. Funny that I use fainting and rolling around laughing but never zen. We could start profiling people!  :ninja:

I think I`m the only person in the world who doesn`t "get" emojis so I should probably keep quiet

(I have one friend who often uses them rather than any words in her messages and I haven`t got a clue what she is trying to say!)

@UttaRetch I can honestly say that I have never cried with laughter. :| I didn't think it was really possible but bow to better knowledge :D

I often cry when I'm laughing! I laugh a lot.  :dance:

It takes something very funny, but yes, I have cried with laughter many a time.

I'd noticed the pins and the roll of fabric had gone.

Just wondering if  =8 :toast: would describe me going in the hot tub?
