Comment on Post title lol
Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de 1 day agoI am actually gen z and the “😂” has simply become cringe because older people overused it so much and I guess that’s why we switched to “😭”
It’s also interesting to me how you still see it as crying because my brain just doesn’t make that connection at all anymore

I genuienly appreciate the explanation, that makes sense.
2 reasons unc here sees them similarly:
A ) I barely ever use emojis
Many millennials grew up using

… style constuctions to represent emotions in text.
I’m used to those, I’m not used to emojis.
B ) I’m just actually slowly losing visual acuity.
I’m getting oooollldddd.
I’ve got an astigmatism now, and I tend to only wear my glasses when I absolutely need to.
