I keep getting this emoji posted against my comments in an art forum on FB, mostly by American women it seems. It appear to me to be a yellow face with a red whales tail diving in front of it but I am not sure what that is meant to represent - Moby dick?

‘Care’ it tells you what they mean when hovering over them. The context varies though.

In this context it’s more likely to be Take Care. Especially around sharp objects, ladders and power tools

whilst weve got an emoji thread going, how do we input them in our replies? there doesnt seem to be an emoji button, i can guess the obvious basic ones such as a smile or laugh, but nothing else......

are people copying and pasting them from google or somethings?

Just click the emoji icon on your keyboard and insert them 🍆💦

(Don’t know why 🍌 isn’t used instead of 🍆)

Surely it's "I like eating squirrel hearts... can you help?"

From my phone keyboard or emoji tool on win 10 if using my PC. 👍 😁👌😍😘💩

Edit - I prefer 🔔 🔚 to 🍆💦

It’s the emoji for ‘I’m just rearranging my norks’

Looks like the little guy is clutching a huge, bloody wound. It is the OP in an emoji

I now see the yellow thing holding a heart.

FB doesn't tell me what they mean when I hover unless I am doing something wrong.

I am not sure if I should be flattered or perturbed that so many women 'care' for me

When did words go out of fashion. It was so much easier when people actually used them to communicate.

I am tempted to post some random punctuation just to see what it is meant to 'say'

The yellow ball thimgumy is holding a heart

I’m embarrassed to admit it took me a minute or so to actually see that!
Most of my emoji come from the little key at the bottom left of my iPad keyboard, but I have a particular web-page open from which I c’n’p a url from if I want something a bit different, like this one: [img] [/img]
