The Infinite Monkey Cage

Edit to add relevant lyric; 'If infinite monkeys type every day, they may accidentally write Hamlet the play. But they'll probably just shit on it and throw it away. In the Infinite Monkey Cage (those naughty monkeys)!' -Eric Idle

It’s a somewhat smirking smiley face. The old fashioned kind, where you have to tilt your head. :ط

Ahhh, ok. Now I see it, thank you!
