I died a little when people started misspelling headlines on reddit just for the comment correction clicks rather than just downvoting it into oblivion.
I have slowly relented on emoji since they can be handy at times but I dread using them so end up writing about 5x more to convey my intention than just using 😆😅😭🥹🤪🥺🤐😱🤬🤯🤮😈 or ☺️.
Meaning there’s a better emoji. Thumbs up has and should always mean just thumbs up.
A more appropriate sarcastic thumbs up would be. 🤪👍
The whole point of emoji is to literally help convey the direct emotion. If someone just uses thumbs up with no context expecting it to be read as sarcasm, then they just suck.
Have you ever given someone a thumbs up irl without a dumbass face or full body twitch attached if it was sarcastic? I sure haven’t lol.
[Serious] People hate on sarcasm tags but I’d go even further and preface nearly everything with Elcor emotion tags.

I actually have, when someone was annoying me. A goofy face wouldn’t convey the disinterest I have in continuing a conversation. I guess 😐👍 could work, but that requires enough effort that it undermines the disinterest part.

My problem with emojis is that they’re so often used for sarcasm that it’s hard to tell whether a 👍is supposed to be an “I agree” or a “yeah whatever”
