Where in the rules does it say you can use smileys? Are you trying to not-so-subtly influence the esteemed judges? Does that count as another sentence?

God, the depths some people will stoop to....
But you don't mind that I sent her roses and a box of chocolates, right? As long as I didn't include a smiley?

Cheapskate. I would send her a diamond necklace if I thought it would do my chances of success any good in this competition. But our esteemed judges here are the plebeians who wash up on the shore of this forum, and we all know how easily their opinions are swayed by cheap tricks, like gratuitous smileys and vulgar innuendo.

... and beer. Seriously. Lots of votes can be bought with beer -- cheap 6-packs for Yanks and some sort of brown ale for the folks overseas.

Gratuitous smiley, vulgar innuendo and plagiarism. Poisoned by the venomous rantings of Monty Python, led astray into the sexual wastelands of Thomas Hardy, and far too much time spent alone diddling yourself silly, I shouldn't wonder. Some neglectful parent spared the rod and ruined the child.
But at least you've been outed now and I won't have to worry about that "embrowned" business when it comes to the vote.

I wasn't going to include the smiley when I presented all the sentences for a vote...I'm tempted to do it now though, just for the lulz.
