Hmm. I see it on nearly every thread. I don't even know what the hell it means but I fucking hate it.

Am I alone on this?

HmmHmmHmm yabvu, I love it & use it, a lot.

That one is just crying with sadness, the crying with laughter one is 😂

The original MN emoticons are the best so YABVU. These new emoji imposters are occasionally useful but should never be used when a :) Confused :o or Hmm could suffice.

Then I have no idea why my sister uses when she finds something funny.

But I think that the MN native emoticons work best on a computer, so can understand if people think they look naff on a phone, app or tablet, which is a shame.

YY that's the crying with laughter one that makes me Hmm Bertie, it is usually used when the subject does not make you cry with laughter at all.

I like emojis but I really don’t like the strike through thing! Sorry I know it’s popular on here. I don’t get it. What’s the point?

Sparklingbrook · 25/11/2017 13:22

The strike through works to show the difference between what you wanted to say and what you actually did say.

I thought Glitterball was meant to be an evil pumpkin when I saw it around Halloween. Glitterball apparently!
