I think ours must be the only blog that does not use any emoji at all. To begin with, blogs are mostly vlogs (video-enabled) these days. Whatever little explanation, if needed at al abundant are the uses the emojis.
Emojis are characters in a currently visuzl language. Just like any real time language, the emoji version, has its own dialects. Each generation, the Gen Z, the Gen Next, and what have you, has its own meaning of each emoji, it seems.Well, already are available dictionaries of emojis. The only blessing is that the explanation therein, the Lord be thanked, is in plain English!
Why does not our blog use emojis? In my opinion, currently the world is regressing back to the visual from the verbal mode of com11munication. Ancient hieroglyphics used these emoji kind of symbols, and it took generations of human beings to arrive at the verbal mode. Why then revert back to the cave mode of communication ? Why turn the wheels of time, of human progress backwards?
Yet 111111another major reason which makes me suspicious of the emojis is that emojis are exclusive by nature. That is to say, only a certain cabal knows the exact meaning of each emoji. Communication never can be progressive with such silly snobbery!
Apparently, the use of emojis saves time. What is it used for? For aimlessly scrolling and 'thumbing' the information overload? In fact, the laziness induced by the excessive use o111af emojis is making most in to zombies with the same silly expression without any subtlety!
