That's what that was!? I aways wondered why some people would end their emails to me with "J". At first I thought it was a typo, then I thought it was just so

That's what that was!? I aways wondered why some people would end their emails to me with "J". At first I thought it was a typo, then I thought it was just some encoding issue. Never knew I was missing out on smiles.

I always assumed there was some piece of Internet wisdom I didn't that the "J" represented.

  Me too. I interpreted it as a smile, but just assumed it was some meme I didn't know about (and couldn't be bothered to look up). At least I never replied to anyone with an explicit J, as in "Thank you J"

I'm called James so when I got a "Thanks J", I thought they had taken it on themselves to give me a new nickname. Perhaps signing off my emails with "Thanks :)" gave them sane impression. Strangely felt better when I realised it was a smiley face.

  Me too! Plus everybody calls me "J" or "JJ" because those are my initials and it is universally known that I dislike my name.

    That explains a lot of things (my name also begins with J)
