Use of Emojis?

[UNCMSinLS]

Perhaps I'm giving it all a bit too much thought. But I am puzzled by emojis. Which do I use? What's the difference? Why is my go-to always the sad face?

Here are some quandries I've run into:

What is the difference between and ?
When does one deploy or ?
While on the subject of , what about ?
What about the use of vs. ?
When is preferred over a simple ?
And what of ? Is this for "I'm pondering and/or thinking about your post" or "I'm pondering and/or thinking about your sanity" ?

So many emoji questions. So few emoji answers. It makes me want to . Sometimes I get so stressed that it makes me and fills me with a rage bordering on .

But fear not board impressionist. Help may be on its way. I found a link to Emojipedia. It may not be but hopefully it's a for you!


P.S. - Thank god isn't an option. Now that would me !

I overuse emojis. Text is flat and spoken communication is largely dependent on tone and affect during delivery.

I use when I love what I'm seeing
Is more an expression of generalized love or sympathy
Is for when someone's dead - either a full roast, or something so funny that you're dying laughing
Is for "look at this!" Implying interest is being impressed, *Or* side-eye, depending on context.
Is for Zen, GT, etc.
Is for applause/approval
Is for emphatic agreement - a "Preach" or "Amen" kind of response
Is disgust
Is generic disapproval but doesn't imply stronger feelings
Can imply curiosity, confusion, or "You've lost your goddamn mind."

At least that's how I use them.

I love emojis

But don't fret about using them or what is the correct way to use them. Follow the wisdom of the artist Bob Ross...

I use emojis to indicate that my post is tongue in cheek
I use emojis to support and agree with posts
I use emojis to express my disagreement with or confusion about the intent of posts

I like emojis

See Bill and Ted's great adventure...

We're not worthy...

This is just clapping.


I do love having so many options. I really wish Blue Sky had more. I had clicked a heart for something that is repulsive.
