Gen Z is making their voice loud and clear when it comes to the laughing crying emoji.
Just when you thought all emojis were cool comes some breaking news that’s bizarrely fascinating, to say the least. Gen Z is the people to turn to when it comes to what’s hot and what’s not. And according to them, you’re going to be labeled uncool for using the ‘crying laughing emoji’, which is no longer accepted in younger social circles.
We won’t fail to disagree how the crying laughing emoji just might be one of the most overused symbols in the world of Whatsapp today. Be it chats with friends, loved ones, colleagues, or groups- the symbol is getting replaced like it’s no one’s business.
But wait, if they’re planning on riding the emoji or better yet, terming it dead, then what’s the substitute? Moreover, is there any?
For so many people, this particular emoji holds such a huge significance when it comes to responding to the most obnoxious or silly escapades in life. Moreover, without saying a word, it says so much and we love it to the core. Sigh, the world of joyful simplicity seems to be coming to an end.
So how did the world react to the news? As you can probably imagine, the memes and puns kept coming in as the event went viral. Some reportedly claimed that they couldn’t be happier as the change was inevitable. However, the majority found it an obsession and just weren’t ready or willing to give it up so soon.
For instance, one woman agreed to give up her skinny jeans trend obsession. But she was certainly skeptical about giving up the crying laughing emoji as it was an integral part of her daily chats.
Some people like 17-year-old Xavier Martin termed the laughing crying emoji as simply bland. Moreover, he added how not too many people from his generation or age group were keen on using it in the first place. What do you think? Are you ok with giving it up?
