what is the word

This is a killer site.
Not only does it have Japanese street fashion, one of the modern world's more bizarre phenomena, but it also has shop windows, food displays, street art, and Japanese emoticons, which are a thousand times cooler than our emoticons, which by the way only morons use.
Like, these are two people dancing. \(^o\)(/o^)/
And this person is smoking! (-.-)y-"""
This person is suspicious. (p_-)
I wonder if smart people use emoticons in Japan, or only lame-os, like here. Speaking of Japan, I finally saw Lost in Translation yesterday. I thought it was strange that such a simple, beautiful film caused such varied reactions from people. I had heard so many people say it was boring, overhyped & not worth seeing. I thought it was genuinely romantic, and very funny, and sad.
When they said goodbye on the street, and she was on tiptoe, and he whispered something to her that you couldn't quite hear ... it was perfect.
This is me crying (T_T)
and then applauding (^_^)//
