I was trying to post the face with sunglasses emoji, only to discover that the WP comments API, at least the one Canecittà uses, doesn’t support emoji—hence the blank. Then I thought, what would an actual real estate agent do now? What they absolutely hate doing, of course, trying to persuade the seller to lower the asking price—hence the sigh…. I shoulda known that if anyone woud catch me noodling it’d be you 🙂

Noodling is good. It gives the mind room to bend and stretch.
I was thinking satan might take a bribe, but I kind of like my soul as it is and that greedy sucker already has more than enough.
p.s. I wish there were emojis too. 🙂

Oh, wow. How did I do that? [colon, dash, right parentheses?]
So, some of them translate into pic and some don’t?
Yeah, apparently some of the old ascii smileys get translated into graphics, but actual emojis aren’t understood, probably because they’re encoded in unicode rather than ascii. Surprised me too.
Anyway, if the devil won’t take him, maybe we could persuade Aeolus to gin up a cat 5 for Mar-a-Lago and blow him into the custody of Poseidon.
Satan here, Uh you can just keep that asshole. He’ll bring down our property values. NIMBY! NIMBY! NIMBY!
Sigh….
Does this mean I left you speechless?
oops! never mind. the “audible” wasn’t there when I looked. sorry!
