Who doesn't love 🍤? There's lot of other strange Unicode too. There's things like '' (U2062 INVISIBLE TIMES), ⓞⓓⓓ ©ⓗⓐⓡⓐ©ⓣⓔⓡ ⓢⓔⓣⓢ and sɹǝʇɔɐɹɐɥɔ uʍop ǝpısdn.

All of which can be used to bypass filters and generally cause browser-crashing havoc. For example, this address looks like Google, but it really links to hacker news.

- lloeki 14y ago> "INVISIBLE TIMES" Sounds like a Muse song title
- nwh 14y agoI've never been able to work out if it is an invisible ⨉ character, or a character meant for use when things are invisible. Either way works for Muse I suppose.
- taejo 14y agoIt's for mathematics. Some kind of math markup may want to distinguish x times y written xy from a two-letter variable called xy. So the product is x<invisible times>y but is rendered xy.

- speeder 14y agoYes, I tested pasting "🍤" to my OSX, and was surprised by a color rendering of a friend shrimp. (yes, you can copy the character between "" and paste in your OSX terminal)
- decad 14y agoShame this doesn't work in zsh.
- uvdiv 14y agoWhy wouldn't it work on zsh? The font face is a property of the terminal emulator (e.g. xterm, Terminal.app), not the shell. http://i.imgur.com/RKTOBKe.png http://i.imgur.com/RKTOBKe.png edit: It appears (?) stock linux fonts don't include emoji.
