I admit it, I like emojis. But I use them in that hipster, post-ironic “I’m too cool for you” way, sort of the same way I use “lol.”
This probably makes me a horrible, petty person in some way, but it’s balanced out by how adorable I find kittens.
I installed the Super Emoji+ plugin for the blog. How is it? Let me sum it up:
If you look carefully, you can see the crying emoji above appears to be an actual severed head as the tears are pooling directly under it. No wonder it’s so sad. Poor body-less little guy.
EDIT: The plugin doesn’t seem to work with the current version of WordPress. Just pretend that giant question mark above is crying.
EDIT, The Sequel: I’ve removed giant question mark and added an image that captures the essence of the missing emoji. My work here is done.
