"But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
"In flames and torment?""Oh, yes, I do."
"That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said."Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
"Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

steph...no, you took me wrong. I don't really find it humorous or would venture to ever use it myself; but the saying cracks me up...because I can imagine some threads on this forum where the subject gets beat to death....and no one says anything until the issues are been hashed over at least 20 pages into the thread. Some even have been shut down. I would actually imagine some horse lovers, such as yourself, would definitely be offended by that one. When I first saw it, I thought 'what the heck is this one?' - then I saw the saying and it dawned on me. It really isn't funny; you are right about that. Literally speaking, beating dead horses would be horrid.
Yes, that one is a bit strange. If you look at it, it's not even an emoticon, or is it? I thought they all had to resemble smilie faces; but then again there, are a few that don't. hummm...have to think on this awhile...definition of emoticon....![]()

What you meant is clear to me Janine. I hope it is for others as well. Thank you for making your point clearer
Technically, a smilie would be a face doing gestures and representing an emotion, while emoticons are graphics of other kinds, also representing emotions. So, a smilie would be a type of emoticon, though in practice both terms are used indistinctly to mean the same thing![]()
Thanks Max, you know I would never beat a dead or for that matter an alive horse. I love horses! As you can see I just mean I could picture some of our members using that because it would perfectly describe some endless discussions on various contraversial subjects.I am sure they could use that one also!
