What's with the "Papers, please" emoticon ?

Post by Genista »

Sorry for the very random question, but there is a "papers, please" emoticon available in the list of forum smilies.

That one -> :papers:

Is it related to A2A in any ways ?

I ask because I really enjoyed that game (Papers, please).

Thanks ! :D

Bit of an inside joke, the game as mentioned is a wonderful little game. And its the perfect little joke to use whenever someone says they wont be available tomorrow because they are out of town etc :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

cheers,

I thought it was from the movie Firefox, where the Soviet guys kept asking him, "Your papers please" "papers, please"...
