How extremely surprising.
The fact people actually thought something happened was completely retarded
Throwing emoji's in the title.. that's a bold move Smurfster.
I'm trying to figure out what character combination can make that emoji.
Looks like this on my mac. I'm assuming it's the ghost/alien thing on Android devices... but what about PC/Linux?

:c
I just got a square on pc and an empty space on my tablet instead. Does that thing use non-ascii characters or what.
Quit it with the emojii talk, ye? It's off topic. Smurfy, keep your titles succinct. News articles generally don't have little smiley faces in them.

Yes, emoji have unicode code points, so you can use them anywhere you can input text (provided there's a glyph available to render them).
It's a simple monochrome line drawing on Firefox Nightly/Win7 for me though, so the colour font capability likely isn't available here.
If it's a square you can usually fix it by installing the necessary font though, the system [I]should[/I] fall back to the proper glyph then.
Curiously enough these also don't break the ticker, unlike certain other symbols that have short HTML escape codes.

It just took them this long to find a lookalike while Mendevev prepares his take-over! :tinfoil:

That's not Putin, that's Petrov from House of Cards
So did Putin escape this space-time warp that caused him to meet Kyrgyzstan's President a day early?

Because there's sooooo much more to talk about.
Putin's fine, nothing's changed /thread

If him disappearing is highly unusual, why is it "completely retarded" to speculate that something unusual happened?

What else is there to talk about? "Oh hey Putin was alive okay"? I just don't really understand, are we still allowed to talk about what the OP does?
I mean, I would add something here so that I don't get banned for being completely off topic myself, but I honestly can't even think of anything more to this article. The whole freakout was dumb to begin with, not much more to say about it.
