For months I’ve been trying to work out why some people whom I know to be completely sane and rational human beings sign off their emails with a J…
Just in case it was part of some groovy , “down with the kids” street slang I had a search online, and apparently it’s blimmin’ Microsoft.
“The letter J sometimes appears seemingly out of place in emails sent from Microsoft Outlook. In reality, it’s meant to be a smiley. This happens because Outlook uses the Wingdings font to render a smiley, and the Wingdings character for a smiley stands at the code point that usually represents the letter J. (Note that there is a Unicode character for a smiley: U+263A, which renders as☺.)”
I should have known!.
