i'm most likely to use the Grin on here as i have a silly sense of humour and i have a mad grin in real life [think slightly deranged], i like the emojis in general but i cannot stand that stupid crying with laughter one.
dc and dh are on fb and they point it out on posts to me to wind me up as it is so irritating, it seems that it is one of the most frequently used with mildly amusing posts and hardly worth a smile let alone wetting yourself over. 'my 6 yo dd spilt baked beans on the table' said emoiji x 4 .really ? ffs how is that so funny ?

Hmm is the best one on here and sadly has no direct equivalent in unicode.

Word of Mouth just did a whole episode on emoji

People who use crying with laughter are UNORIGINAL.

SueGeneris · 22/02/2017 20:47

Am I the only person who doesn't get what most of the emojis mean? I never use them as I have no idea what they are meant to mean, apart from smile, laugh, sad.

user1487622505 · 22/02/2017 20:49

The eye roll 🙄

Trills · 22/02/2017 20:49

They mean whatever the person sending them to you wants them to mean.

I do like a good emoji Grin

I wish there was Hmm on my iPhone but I use 🤔 as a substitute.

I think 🤣 is a bit pointless. And I liked the one like this but with smiley eyes 😬 why did they get rid?? Angry

Mrsglitterfairy · 22/02/2017 21:33

Ooh I love emojis, me & DH will send each other lots through the day instead of actually writing stuff.. my favourite are😘👌🏻💞🤗😫 and the very unoriginal 😂

NotTheBelleoftheBall · 22/02/2017 21:47

^ is my favourite

ShoutOutToMyEx · 22/02/2017 21:58

😍 is my favourite, although I also enjoy 🤤 and ☺️. I like how content that last one looks.

I hate 😳. With a passion. MIL uses it to convey all sorts of passive aggressive shit to me and I can never call her out on it because I'd look ridiculous, which I suppose is exactly the point.

BlisseyMon · 22/02/2017 22:15

Favourite = 😂 (Unoriginal or not 😁)

Runner ups 👯💃🏻👹🙀😹🍄💖😎🤓😘😍🙄👌🏻

Least favourite = 🤡

paxillin · 22/02/2017 22:31

MN has the best passive aggressive emoji: Hmm
I also like Confused and Gin

I hate the Biscuit except when the sporners use it as code for squeezing pimples: >Biscuit< and of course as boobs: Biscuit Biscuit

Littledrummergirl · 22/02/2017 22:34

HmmConfused are my favourites. I quite like these two together as well. 🔔🔚

MaidOfStars · 22/02/2017 23:10

Favourites... 🙄🖕🏻😏😒

AlwaysTheWinner · 22/02/2017 23:17

I still like the Bear and of course Hmm which I wish I could use everywhere.

ErrolTheDragon · 22/02/2017 23:18

I like the MN ones best. In addition to GrinConfusedHmm I'm particularly fond of Dragon

Kikikaakaa · 22/02/2017 23:19

I am loving emoji more and more as I get old! I use more than kids.

Can you work it out?

(Random convo with dh other day where you have to write things in emojis and guess the answer- sad I know!)

DoubleR · 22/02/2017 23:20

My new favourite is this one 🤧, I've been using it a lot recently 😟 Thanks to ❄️ And 🌫
