Why is the LOL smily so unstable?
This is not a life and death question but sometimes the LOL smiley appears normally, sometimes it appears repeated like a zillion times making the poster look like he's totally on the laughing gas (which looks kinda cool), sometimes it appears as an unloaded image with a generic image icon, and sometimes it doesn't appear at all (which might change the meaning of a sentence and it's when it really started to intrigue me). Is this on purpose? The other icons seem to behave more orderly and with discipline. Or is it just me and my browser?
There's a couple of laughing smilies, but they are consistent:
It may be your browser, because any inconsistencies are not intentional or an error on my part. I've noticed in general Internet browsing that sometimes small images just don't load right the first time, and a right-click-Show Picture in IE corrects that.
I don't know anything else beyond that.!

It's the one.
I've suspected it's my browser since it's very ancient, but the interesting thing is that is the only smiley that acts weird, the others never do it (as far as I've seen)
it's funny cus at the beginning I thought it was the person posting the message that had gone bonkers by saying something like:
That's funny
but then I noticed it happenned at random and came and went. Even in my own posts. And they sometimes disappear just leaving:
That's funny
So i guess i have a more Ai experience than the rest of you
(now, i hope i never load this message while the multiple multiply cus then my screen will look infected with 10,000 maniacs!
