- robbrown451 7y agoAre you talking about the article? Because the people creating the emojis clearly didn't spend a lot of time checking that the scissors would actually work, which it seems like you'd approve of. The article itself isn't so much "the industry" as a blogger just trying to write something amusing.
- sergiotapia 7y agoYou know what he means dude.
- robbrown451 7y agoI honestly don't.
- kempbellt 7y agoWasting time on irrelevant things? Like someone taking the time to post a comment about something they consider to be irrelevant? ;) I wouldn't consider this to be a depiction of the "industry". Someone pulled on an OCD thread and shared what they found with the community, and now I'll be on the lookout for poorly designed scissor emojis as a result... It was a fun read for me - one of the less serious posts for today being the kick off of a new decade. Reminds me of how there are so many colors of hand emojis now. I wonder if they'll try and make scissor emojis that represent left and right handed people equally at some point - letting the user decide.
- delish 7y agoIf "waste" is "many organizations making the same emoji," and if the alternative is a standards committee, I think standards committees are hit or miss. I'm fine with organizations doing it themselves.
- Buge 7y agoIs the entire entertainment industry a waste of time? Some people create things for their own and other's enjoyment even though it has no "practical" use.
