in reply to Perl Secret Operator Emojis

I prefer wristwatch ⌚° over Saturn 🪐

And I think it also plays better with the counting metaphor (length of list)

I remember us having a longer discussion about alternative interpretations for =()= , listing (sic ;) many options, but I can't find it anymore. About 15 years ago...

°) the supposed name was "Rolex operator" (thanks to Discipulus for finding the thread)

      Thanks, not sure why I couldn't find it.

      Not a real "Poll" tho, I was young and ambitious and wanted to improvise one with the Reputation system.

      There were a lot of interesting suggestions, with even more interesting emojis... :)

      And now I remember we called it Rolex and not wristwatch ⌚.

      While Rolex might come easier from the lips, it's a bit unfortunate that it's a commercial brand.
