What the hell? Sorry, as a terminally online sorry sack of shit I've been trained to see emoticons purely as code for sarcasm.

Sorry, I'm a millennial who grew up with emoticons Bโ -โ ), so when emoji came along ๐Ÿ˜Ž, I've loved using them every since. But I realize among most crowds they can come across as not very serious, lol. If you know me, all my emoji make perfect sense. ๐Ÿ˜…
