Notes about ascii

Create and edit ANSI and ASCII art in your browser!

If ansi.drastic.net isn’t doing it for you, here’s another in-browser ANSI art generator, with source available on Github. Go make some BBS graffiti!

“The art of writing symbols that say where you’re working from.” The original was WFH, Working From Home. Following that pattern, then, you might get:

WF(O<-<)
Working from a bath

WFgl___/
Working from a boat (with an outboard motor)

WF§-__/
Working from a boat (with a more serious motor)

“WF ”
Working from space

WF=====
Working in a linear accelerator

…

(Via New Scientist and Language Log, which has an interesting discussion of trying to work out what the best neologism for these ASCII art variations should be)
