The Winky Frowny is one among the most improperly understood emoticon on the Internets. It actually is supposedly used to imply sorrow, with a little bit of sarcasm, skepticism, or hilarity. It is seeking to state “tragic, but you get it”, still its meaning can not be any less clear. We deeply discourage its use. And never use Comic Sans MS.
