Yeah, there's a kinda cheeky tone to :p and ;p that none of the graphical ones I've seen have captured. :S is another one, where I see it as half smile, half frown/sad. Like "this is amusing but also horrible" or "putting on a smile despite everything being awful". Any of the smileys on my phone that have more than one curve for the mouth look either crazy or sick.
