I've realized that I miss the extants and feel like the internet is a less beautiful place without LOLOLOL face

Agreed, look at all the natural variation that was lost. The newcomers don't convey the same intensity of emotions.

P.S. "extant" means still in existence, I believe you meant "extinct" :)

Edit: I only now realize the image is also incorrectly labeled. It's a perfectly understandable mistake, anyway.

Agreed! I like what they contribute but their now extinct forebears just bring a lot more flavour - and lightheartedness, I think.

Hahaha this is what I get for not double checking a word I wasn't sure of. Thank you, correctly used this time around :)
