For me it's this one: 🤤
the dribbly mouth emoji. I find it slightly off putting for some reason. It's usually posted alongside some delicious looking food, but it always puts me off the food a bit!

closely followed by this one: 💁‍♀️
no idea why, I just don't like its attitude

what are yours?

@LifesLittleDeciders

🙂 - this one is the ‘I WANT you to know I don’t like you but you can’t call me out because.. well it’s just a smile’ Face and it annoys me so much.
Haha I love it for that reason. It's not the default smiling emoji - you've gone out of your way to find a shittier, less warm smile. I never have cause to use it myself but it's wonderfully passive aggressive.

This is so accurate!

😋 - this one because it's the equivalent of a grown adult using the word 'yummy' to describe food.

Glitterblue · 25/03/2021 18:08

My ex friend always used this one when she didn't like something I'd said, and it used to wind me up! 😳

I also don't like 🤷‍♀️🙈

Winecheesesleep · 25/03/2021 18:09

🤔 Hate this one!

BrumBoo · 25/03/2021 18:11

Oh, the Mumsnet ones are all pretty obnoxious:

Smile - I think you're a simpleton

Grin - I have found your post funny, dogs and babies have been awoken, tea spat out everywhere.

Wink - I hope you now understand, Thicky McThicko.

Shock - Blow Job Face. Also, the person using it is either being sarcastic or genuinely needs to get out more.

Hmm - I think you're a troll.

Confused - I think you're a troll/thick, or am being that twat who's pretending to be confused about a subject that's easily to decipher/Google.

Blush - I'm an exhibitionist.

Angry - Constipated.

Sad - Virtue signalling. Troll if used several times in one post.

Envy - Never envy.

Daffodil - I'll tell you to stop being a wanker, by being a passive aggressive wanker.

Biscuit - That told you. Also, see above.

Wine - I've had 4 of these tonight but will tell MN it's 1 large one otherwise, otherwise be deemed an alcoholic. Also, shut up, chill out and have some wines.

Star - there's no Blue Peter badge for your showing off, so have one of these inside.

Flowers - I'm placemarking your drama like a bookmark in Take A Break magazine.

Agree with pp about this one🙂

It’s like the grey rock of emojis, so in so me ways it has its place.

3CCC · 25/03/2021 18:16

🙌 I dint really get its usage
💁‍♀️for the entitlement
🤮 TMI

StripedLeopard · 25/03/2021 18:17

🤯🧗

3CCC · 25/03/2021 18:19

🙃 it's so condescending

MammaMiaWallace · 25/03/2021 18:19

🧐 grinds my gears when I receive this! Seems aggressive and arsey

Followed by 😏 which looks like someone on the loo or releasing an sbd.

nextdaydeliverance · 25/03/2021 18:21

🤷‍♀️ usually used in a really pass agg way.
👌 really bugs me too.

FloraFauna27 · 25/03/2021 18:26

😬 and 😏. People seem to mean different things when they use them and I never know what to infer!

whoamitojudge · 25/03/2021 18:33

💩

Sniv · 25/03/2021 18:36

🙈

I often see it used after something cruel/offensive/TMI to be, like 'oh, oops, I know I shouldn't have said that, teehee, but I totally did, lol, whoopsie.'

MrsTerryPratchett · 25/03/2021 18:42

😂🤣

Always posted by unfunny twats. Particularly the second one.

lidoshuffle · 25/03/2021 20:15

I'm really impressed you can all see what they are. I need better specs, though I suspect I wouldn't even know what most are meant to mean, even if I could see them clearly.

AnaisNun · 25/03/2021 20:19

@BrumBoo

Grin
AnaisNun · 25/03/2021 20:22

I fucking hate this emoji 😂 my boss uses it ALL the time ... particularly when I say anything vaguely “naughty” or snarky.

I think for her it means “I’m pretending I’m laughing really hard because I’m concerned that deep down you mean what you say and if you mean it I probably have to fire you so let’s pretend it’s a joke”.

It’s never a joke.

Sparklesocks · 25/03/2021 20:23

🤪

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 25/03/2021 20:25

🤗 annoys me

I think it’s meant to be a hug but it looks like a tit groper

Sparklesocks · 25/03/2021 20:26

@3CCC

🙃 it's so condescending
I quite like this one! My friends and I use it for sarcasm /ffs such as ‘can’t wait for my performance review later 🙃’ or ‘just found out we need a new car battery 🙃’
GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 25/03/2021 20:27

I see this one a lot 🙆🏻‍♀️ but I don’t know what it means! A Pizza Hut?

Bluesloth · 25/03/2021 20:31

😜🤪😛 as used by The Men Of OLD to show how crazy and zany and fond of cunnilingus they were.
