No, the point was that we were literal when choosing which emoji to use.
- charcircuit 3mo agoThat's not what the article is saying from my reading of it. It thinks "rolling on the floor laughing" is a new exaggerated phenomenon despite ROFL being used the same way for decades.
- thih9 3mo agoIMHO it’s still just that: early emoji use was literal and later use got more [nail polish emoji]. Not sure why ROFL is relevant, a typical emoji user is likely unfamiliar with internet slang.
