I just read them all as "tiny little indistinguishable blob." Too small to see what they are, and other than the smiley-face and a few others, completely devoid of any meaning. Someone sends me an email and all it says is, "[blob] [blob] [blob]" —? I can't be bothered to read your mind, please re-send using words.
- vsnf 3y agoWhile I sympathize with finding the imagery too small to read quickly, I think this is an elitist attitude that you'll find increasingly separates you from your younger peers. You don't have to lace your own sentences with emoji, but to declare sentences you read that contain them to be devoid of meaning, I think you're prejudicially shutting down lots of dialogue.
