I first saw the smiley face when my kindergarten teacher marked my homework with a smiley because I did well 😀

What happens when you don't apply for copyright before releasing a design...this...everyone uses it...nobody gets credit for it.
When you entered Walmart they would give you a sticker with this
Walmart used the smiley for along time back in day

so far this is one of my fave brand i think besides supreme, fragment, or cactus jack, the reason is that the smiley face is just a simple logo that i never realize that became a pop culture

To me... it's one of the only universal symbols. Everyone knows what it means or can figure it out. It means HAPPY in some way, shape, or form.

Here is one for you--- Many may be surprised to know the generic term "smiley" is trademarked. Merriam-Webster states the "First Known Use of smiley Adjective 1848" Franklin Loufrani in 1972 "legally" trademarked "smiley." Today if one uses the TAG "smiley" on an online marketplace, The Smiley Company LLC. may do a DMCA takedown for the product. Even if the product has NO ubiquitous yellow "smiley" face on it -- they did a takedown on one of my products.
never realised how big it was until now
I got the Nirvana Smiley Face tattooed on Me. Gotta love the Smiley Face. It always lifts Your mood.

There was a smiley face in the bowl of KIX 1953 Episode of "Ding Dong School"

I'm trying to figure out the origin of the headshot smiley, the one with a bullet hole in the forehead with blood dripping down the center. People often think this is from the Watchmen. However the "comedian's badge" is a smiley with his blood on it. The blood is at and angle and it does not come from a bullet hole. A t-shirt with the headshot smiley is seen in the 1994 System Shock, but I'm pretty sure I've seen people wearing similar shirts earlier. It's possible it was inspired by the watchmen (1986) but it is not the same symbol. I'd really like to know in what context this specific design was first used.
Cool.
The first time i ever saw a smiley face was at my kindergarten
Then hypebeasts ruined the double eye smiley
