Am I the only one who find these icons bizarro?
| The catcow |  |
| The dogoldfish |  |
The first time I saw them, I thought the first one was a cow and the second one was a goldfish. But apparently they’re a cat and a dog.
I never understood the need for these emoticons in the first place. If you need to add a smiley face to indicate that you’re joking, then you need to work on your delivery.
Raymond has been involved in the evolution of Windows for more than 30 years. In 2003, he began a Web site known as The Old New Thing which has grown in popularity far beyond his wildest imagination, a development which still gives him the heebie-jeebies. The Web site spawned a book, coincidentally also titled The Old New Thing (Addison Wesley 2007). He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
