Where did xD come from? I admit it's not a terribly difficult smiley to discover on your own, but I always thought that xD originated at this site. I wasn't much of an internet savvy when I came here (still probably not), but I did not even see a hint of xD until I came here, where it ran rampant. Wikipedia says that it came from an episode of South Park, but I am unfamiliar with the episode.
I first saw it when I went in my first chatroom at PTCO!

I immediately thought of South Park when someone explained to me that it was a laughing face, because that's just how their faces look like o.o
