Today’s Prompt: What emoji(s) do you like to use?

uh…🎉👻🌈🌺🌸🌼 yeah I like these emojis.

Notice anything?

NONE OF THEM ARE NORMAL FACES.

Oh I also like this:), the smiley emoticon. That’s probably the closest to faces I get.

I don’t know if it’s just a me thing, or maybe a slightly autistic thing, or maybe a not-super-great-at-technology and communication thing, but I strugglebus with emojis.

Usually I have to google “disgusted face emoji” or “laughing emoji” or “confused into silence emoji” to try and find one that fits to send somebody. And I don’t get the crying-laughing one. 😂That seems to me like it should be the “I’m happy and sad at the same time” emoji, and therefore nobody should ever use it, because how does that work?

Or maybe it’s the “crying tears of happiness” one, to be used for weddings and momentous occasions. Which…it’s not.

😐😑🤐 Can someone please tell me the difference between these?

Okay back to emojis I like

🎉 this one says YAYAYAYAYAY!!!!

👻 I just sometimes like ghosts, you know?

🌈 happy rainbow.

🌺 I think this is a Hawaiian flower? I don’t know what to say here, except that I like flowers (shrugging emoji)

🌸 I’m not quite sure what this flower is, but yay flowers.

🌼 a daisy. Yay daisies.

:)this is a smiley emoticon. hi:) Most things sound nicer with a smiley:) So it bugs me a tiny bit when a program autocorrects a : ) to look like 🙂

and finally, I vote that this emoji 😶 hereby be called the “I have no idea how to respond to that thing you just said, so I’ll just mutely blink at you, but I still like you as a human being” emoji.
