1. The Winky Face:
To all the clueless parents out there, winky faces are NOT just a cute thing you can send. You know who people send the winky face to? People they wanna bang. I will admit, this applies more the original non-emoji winky face. However, the connotation is still there people!
2. The Heart Eyes:
Ok Mom, I know you love these but they must be used sparingly. The heart eyes are a reaction to something awesome or cute or amazing! Writing, "Are you gonna be home for dinner *insert emoji here* ?" is not the right context!
3. Nature Emojis:
I don't personally have this issue, but I have multiple friends whose fathers put nature/weather emojis in ordinary conversations. Sorry pops, but the tidal wave has nothing to do with whether I took out the garbage.
4. The 100 Sign:
Ok, I know this is very pop culture, but the 100 sign is NOT to be used at random intervals! WHY do parents use this randomly? WHY?
5. Heart(s):
Moms/Aunts/Grandmas love everything. I know you do. You love all my social media, and I appreciate that. But it's okay to not use five hearts though, alright?
6. Peace Sign:
No, this does not mean number two.
7. Confetti:
Again, with the loving everything. I know you're really excited about whatever we're discussing, but the confetti is NOT for when you fill up the gas tank.
8. "Praise" Hands:
No, no the hands aren't throwing anything or pushing anything up.
9. Praying Hands:
Again, not actual prayer. The whole "praise" and "bless" thing is generational, but I promise these emojis aren't as literal as you think!
10. Tongue:
GOD NO MOM PLEASE DON'T USE THAT EW.
