Can someone tell me what a certain slang in text means?

[Louise]

Someone asked me Hi #____# how are you? I asked what it meant but they didn't answer me.

What is the word they used?

It looks like they were trying to do a horizontal ("Japanese") emoticon. Here is a page that shows a bunch: http://www.japaneseemoticons.net/all-jap...emoticons/

But it is a strange emoticon. I'm not sure what they were going for. Usually hashtags are used to denote blushing, but in your example, they are used like eyes. Sunglasses, maybe?
