We need some QA specific emoticons.
May I suggest these?
(_._) an ass hole
 
(__.__) a fat ass
 
(!) a tight ass
 
(_*_) a sore ass
 
(_o_) an ass that's been around
 
(_E=mc2_) a smart ass
 
(_?_) a dumb ass
 
You don't like 'em?
Then:
 
(_x_) kiss my ass
If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Hey Christian, you are still around. How is life (and Quantas) treating you?

Posting today for the first time in ages ( see lounge post ). Life is OK. QANTAS are not treating me great, but I am used to it, my expectations have been lowered.

Almost correct!
 
(_x_) == constipated ass Poke tongue | ;-P
 
and you missed one:
 
(_*_) which could either be that "kiss my ass" thing or "my cats ass"
 
Cheers!
