Once upon a time we had an animated smiley invoked with :lol (
) and it was used by all much to the detriment of sensible discussion and so it was wrongfully taken from us. jakncoke was especially hit hard by this given over 15% of his posts at the time consisted of but a single :lol. He protested this and gave his life trying to restore it to its rightful place to no avail.
In remembrance we began using :jnc in lieu of :lol to remember our fallen comrade as we thought we'd never see him again. He returned to us last year in time to watch his mighty Seahawks (who were wronged in '05 and this we all agree upon) cast down the fraudulent Saints in the playoffs, embarassing them on national tv in the playoffs and helping to discredit their fluky SB win the year previous in the eyes of all good NFL fans.
And that is the story of :jnc
