I am aware of the etymology of emoji; I think your interpretation goes well beyond "fair", all the way to "wildly reaching". It also doesn't explain the "emojie" in "a simple emojie journal" unle

Re-read the comment. The commenter knows that. He or she purposely reinterpreted the misspelling as a different word, "re-singed" as in "singed again". (Also, the original mistake was not a grammatical error, but rather
