It's not real life you know .....

🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 13:31

Yes the man doing it is also very annoying Grin I haven't seen him before. I have only seen the emoji on MN

One of my favourites. I don't like crying with laughter. 😂

Ellisandra · 14/11/2018 13:34

It’s the perfect emoji for how I feel reading your OP!
To me, 🤷🏻‍♀️ Says “I don’t get it, I’m not overly bothered about not getting it, and I’m not feeling anything negative towards you, I just don’t get the problem”. It’s more polite to me than a “whatever”.

There are emojis I don’t like though, so go for it!

I always feel a lack of one that properly reflects embarrassment but without laughing about it. If I forget to pick something up from the shop, I want to say sorry without ☺️ smiling but without going 😕 full drama!

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 13:36

Yes we need one like this Blush
which don't you like ellisandra? I will be pleased if people add in their own disliked ones

OP posts:
Thishatisnotmine · 14/11/2018 13:36

Nothing can beat Blush in my opinion. Its the perfect embarrassed face!

arethereanyleftatall · 14/11/2018 13:36

I hate this one. Hmmwith a passion. So, so rude.

Gileswithachainsaw · 14/11/2018 13:36

I Don't like it either.

But then it's one of the ones I always see used by a certain person when they are being a dickhead. So it's kind of ruined it for me now...

Ellisandra · 14/11/2018 13:38

Thishat I agree, Blush is a proper low key apologetic show of embarrassment!

But the iPhone blushing emojis are just too damn smily! They need to take my minor embarrassment more seriously!

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 13:38

Grin giles. Yes it's like a get out one. Say anything and then do the 'meh' emoji.
I like all the MN ones. I'd rather they replaced the ones on my phone.

DaphneDiligaf · 14/11/2018 13:39

Just Wow!

OnlyWantsOne · 14/11/2018 13:41

it's pretty much the only emoji I send to my ex husband, nearly every message I receive, he gets back the IDGAF woman

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 13:42

Haha yes the IDGAF emoji is a good name for it

OP posts:
Sitranced · 14/11/2018 13:44

You know it's just an emoji, right? Hmm

Ells0204 · 14/11/2018 13:45

There’s this girl I used to be friends with (key word being used to, she was so toxic!) and she used 😒 all the time. It annoyed me and still does to this day because that’s literally what her face was always like in real life.

Ellisandra · 14/11/2018 13:45

It’s perfect for that, OnlyWantsOne
It really conveys IDGAF - but because I am neutral to your nonsense, not bitter and angry - it’s very much a swatting an irritating fly response 👍🏻

See: here are my zero fucks

DuckofDoom · 14/11/2018 13:45

I hate it too OP. I can’t explain why but it really gets my back up.

I use this 😳 for embarrassment

Ells0204 · 14/11/2018 13:46

Oh it changed my emoji to a MN one! Well hopefully you know the one I mean. Ironically I have just used 🤷🏼‍♀️ in another post so hopefully you don’t see that one!

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 13:47

You know it's just an emoji, right?
I do know. And so what, I can still have an opinion on it.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 14/11/2018 13:47

Which one the one where she's wearing a glittery pink jumper and looks a bit like a star.

Shirleyphallus · 14/11/2018 13:47

Can I hop in and request that it’s tjme for the biscuits to fuck off given they’re so absolutely unoriginal and not in the least bit amusing

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 13:50

it’s tjme for the biscuits to fuck off this has given me a giggle

OP posts:
BunsOfAnarchy · 14/11/2018 13:52

Im with @Shirleyphallus
Retire that god damn biscuit.
I dont mind shruggy girl. My current dislike is crying with laughter tilted head emoji. 🤣
Why do we need the same thing but about 30° to the right?

Secretlifeofme · 14/11/2018 13:58

There is an embarrassed one! It's this one isn't it? 😳
