Intent behind the Emoji

[Deleted]

So we all know what means but what does and mean to you

Also when did Smiley become Emoji

[ONCHEhap]

Smiley never become emoji,I refuse to accept it

Also I use when fake bragging in a satyrical way

I always thought it's about face-yoga. When someone posts an emoji he tells you that he just did the weirdest grimaces with his face and encourage others to do the same. As pattern serves the emoji.

Kim Jong un actually looks like the emoji for 'leave the country'

[Symphonic]

:P for the joking, silly face. B) for the cool face, just when you want to either sarcastically or really say how something cool was, and I don't know that last one. It looks like a yawn??

I can understand a single emoji to help add a visual aid to a comment or question. But when it is a string of emojis that are supposed to be making a statement or asking a question, I have no idea how to read it.

Girls use them, ask a girl.

I don't see any difference with :O
"I'm so cool", or "deal with it", or bragging, or "warning! this thread is about how magnificent Canada is"
sticking the tongue out is indicative of a joke in most cultures, I guess.

None of those are emoji anyway.

I'm being silly, I'm cool and I'm surprised.

[khazlol]

they can mean a lot of things. it's just like body langauge. context matters

[Daedius]

(What does that mean?!)

[MisterBigglez]

I don't overdue the use of an emoji, one per message max. Which emoji I use depends on what I write but most of the time it will be a smiley.

[Video Games]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

I use them when I feel like it.

Hope you weren't expecting some answer that unlocks galactic mysteries, because that's all there is to it
