Which one is superior in a debate....
...the "rolleyes" smiley? 
...or the "stick out tongue" smiley? 
...or another smiley?
I try to find out how to defeat any argument decisively.... 
Also - is their impact cumulative?

If you have the weaponry of dialectic reasoning, who needs the smiley?

I tend to prefer the rolleyes attack.
Or something along these lines.
Surely you can do better.

The nuke attack smilie would definitely be decisive, but due to the arms regulations act of Apolyton, they are no longer available except through Apolyton terrorist networks.
