It's constantly at the back of your mind. You see commercials and trailers whenever you use technology. It's everywhere you go. Your friends won't stop talking to you about it.
Star Wars Episode VII has finally reached theaters. And it was glorious. Don't worry! There will be no spoilers here! (But I would be lying if I said I didn't cry more than once during the movie).
1. Yoda
Yoda, one of the most iconic and powerful jedi from the Star Wars saga, is known for his adorable appearance and weird speech. This would make him a great emoji to use when you think something is cute OR when you have to correct something nonsensical thanks to autocorrect!
Example:
"How many people are you executing?"
"EXPECTING. Darn autocorrect! *insert Yoda Emoji*"
2. Lightsaber
This slicing and biting emoji is perfect to represent sass! It would be comparable to the nail polish emoji or the information desk lady.
Example:
"And I was all like, whatever" *insert Lightsaber Emoji*
3. Darth Vader
This emoji would perfect to show off your dark side. For instance, when you've pulled a prank or done something a little tricky, you could use the Darth Vader emoji instead of the smiling devil face!
Example:
"Maaaaaaybbee" *insert Darth Vader Emoji*
4. The Millennium Falcon
The Millennium Falcon represents going out on the town. Use this emoji when your friends ask if you are ready to go "turn up". Han and Chewie always ran into problems on that ship but they were always ready for an adventure!
Example:
"Are you ready to turn up?!"
"Duh!" *insert Millennium Falcon Emoji*
5. Han Solo
Han Solo is the cool kid on the block. He's cooler than Fonzi, Bruce Wayne, or Nathan Fillion (sorry Nathan)! Pair it with the sunglasses emoji for a great combo!
Example:
"Rocked my last final" *insert Han Solo emoji*
6. Chewbacca
For when you just don't know what to say.
Example:
"Hey where should we go out to lunch?"
"Uhh.. ??" *insert Chewbacca emoji*
7. Princess Leia
You could use this when you are having a bad hair day OR when you've finished a sassy feminist rant.
Example:
"Ugh my hair will NOT cooperate today" *insert Princess Leia Emoji*
8. Han & Leia
The original relationship goals started with Han and Leia, aka the cutest couple ever to be on the big screen. This is far better than the regular love emoji that we currently use.
Example:
"#relationshipgoals" *insert Han & Leia Emoji*
9. Force Choke
The force choke could be used when you're in a fight with someone, when someone is being irritated, or when Bae forgets your dinner plans.
Example:
"Sorry, honey, I can't come over. I forgot about this huge Psych paper that I have to write."
*insert Force Choke Emoji*
10. C3PO
Everyone needs an obnoxious robot in their emoji lives.
Example:
"I hate to be a stick in the mud but is that the best idea...?"
"Don't be such a c3po *insert C3PO Emoji*
11. R2D2
R2D2 beeped his way into our lives and into our hearts. Use this little guy while flirting, after calling something "so cute omg", or alongside C3PO!
Example:
"I hate to be that guy, but cats aren't allowed in your dorm.."
"See, this is why you're *insert C3PO Emoji* and I'm *insert R2D2 Emoji*"
12. Jabba the Hutt
What could be lazier than Jabba the Hutt?
Me on a Saturday.
Example:
"I literally haven't gotten out of bed all day" *insert Jabba Emoji*
13. Luke Skywalker
Han Solo might be the cool guy, right, but Han Solo was like bad boy cool. Luke Skywalker is a different kind of cool. He's the protagonist. He can play Jedi mind tricks. He can use a lightsaber. And he's got a snarky sense of humor. If Luke Skywalker had a smart phone, he'd be using the smirking face emoji all the time.
Example:
"I see what you did there" *insert Smirking Face Emoji + Luke Skywalker Emoji*
Hopefully these emojis will become a thing.
May the force be with you.
