Hmm What is this equivalent in normal emojis?

🙄 or 🤨 to me. I always want to use Hmm in everyday text cos I forget its purely a mn thing

SassenachWitch · 15/01/2021 22:27

🤔

Duffmcstockings · 15/01/2021 22:30

Neither are quite right. Can we campaign to have this accepted in the emoji language? I think this is worthy of a Mumsnet campaign.

I also like Blush and Confused

Woahisme what is that one? Seen it on MN but don't really know what it is!

Scaredykittycat · 16/01/2021 08:36

Grin I love this one. I really want a freaky big toothy grin like this on my phone.

Oversize · 16/01/2021 08:42

I've got 🤔 and 😳 which will do instead of HmmBlush but I really want an equivalent for Confused

Oversize · 16/01/2021 08:44

Though really Hmm is different from 🤔 and it's a better fit for purpose usually.

Oversize · 16/01/2021 08:45

I've got😁 but it lacks the slight insanity ofGrin

Oversize · 16/01/2021 08:46

Aww bugger. My phone's toothy grin didn't transfer properly

hellswelshy · 16/01/2021 08:50

How about this OP 🤨?

Duffmcstockings · 16/01/2021 09:28

Nah, doesn't capture the cats bum mouth of the original.

See this Hmm is hmm and if you type hmm into the emojis keyboard it gives you these 🤔😕🤨🧐

pictish · 16/01/2021 11:25

Yes I agree...the Hmm emoji is brilliant. The angle of the cocked brow is just perfect and conveys all. The standard emojis do not have an equivalent, only a substitute.

I also rate Confused as it’s the most accurate visual representation of both ‘what the fuck is this?’ and ‘umm...okay?’ I’ve ever seen.

Souther · 16/01/2021 11:27

🙄
How about this?

Souther · 16/01/2021 11:29

Or this 😖

SebastianTheCrab · 16/01/2021 11:30

This is my absolute go to emoji and I get so disappointed every time i remember it's on Mumsnet only! I think I once screenshot it and used it as a pic in a whatsapp message because there really was no other emoji that would have worked m

Great job MN emoji team!

NavyFlask · 16/01/2021 11:32

Hmm is more cynical than 🤔

Hmm is the best emoji ever.

banivani · 16/01/2021 11:32

I really miss this emoji 🙄 on MN but outside MN I miss Grin (the perfect cheeky grin) and Blush (the perfect oh god I just farted in the queue blush).

SidVisk · 16/01/2021 11:34

I adore Blushand nothing in the run of the mill emojis compares to it.

Duffmcstockings · 16/01/2021 11:48

I am also a fan of thisBlush

OP posts:
pictish · 16/01/2021 11:51

I use 😏 quite frequently...usually with my young adult son, who is a well-intentioned but careless hurricane of a lad.

Clawdy · 16/01/2021 12:27

But what does the little cross in the box mean??? Can't see it in the emoji list?

Jetatyeovilaerodrome · 16/01/2021 12:29

I have always though Hmm is the best emoji ever - and no phone emoji can replicate it!

PainterInPeril · 16/01/2021 13:30

🙄 The eye-roll is my favourite. I don't understand why we don't have more emojis on MN.
@MNHQ Hi guys, any chance we could have a few more emojis... please?😘
