orz?

orz or _| ̄|○ is used for expression of disappointment, despair, regret because both letters seem the person who apologizes, throws oneself on the ground. But most case is it used as self-deprecation. I have never seen both capital letter and small letter expression in English chatting, mail so that it might be seen only in Japanese expression.


For example to self-deprecation, "Ha? Who's fault to write this bug? I was looking for past two hours and finally found the signature! It said ... "by Jim" .. it was me, orz
