Enough already with the emoticons!

I know I can't be the only one who abosolutely detests those little yellow, happy, ADHD suffering smileys. If that weren't enough, I have to watch bananas dancing, faces chuckling, and even smileys with pom-poms. Stop it! I don't quite understand my reaction to them anymore than I understand the motivation behind filling emails and message boards with them. I get that they are supposed to help convey the intent behind the words, but when there is no need for clarification, are they really necessary?

I really don't know why they bug me so much. I think it's just such a distraction from what I'm reading to see things bouncing all over the place! Mostly I think they are just overly used.
