There. I've said it. Strangely, I feel relieved.

Ok, actually I had to ask about this too. It's the way your eyes/brows look when you're confused about something - "what the heck?"

the most appropriate response i can think of just happens to be:
O_o

Pssst, there's a confessional thread for admitting stuff. And O_o is just a look people give sometimes. mack did a good impression of it once. I don't remember where she posted it...

really?? . . . . . . . . . Kidding, really!
Imagine that the Os are someone's eyes. It's a cartoonish gesture of surprise, or shock.

Variation: O.o or O.O
These mean that the person's nose is not huge and located in a left-right manner.

I think it's a very anime-ish gesture. I don't blame anyone for not recognizing it immediately.
Posted by beverly (Member # 6246) on :
I'd never thought of it as anime-ish before. Kinda like this? ^_^

You see that as a nose Teshi? I've always seen it as a mouth.
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
Yeah, bev, like that!
Also, this one: >.<
It may just be my own perception, though.
Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :
Erm... yeah, I did see it as a nose...
But now I see that perhaps it's not. Well, most people's mouths aren't located right between their eyes, so perhaps that's why...
O_o
I see it! Breakthrough!
I prefer O.o though.
