I see what you mean. There are 2,666 Emojis in Unicode and we never really use most of them. The English language has more than a quarter of a million words. I think sometimes an emoji is worth a thousand words, but most of the time, a well written text is better.
By the way, my profile picture (🗿 U+1F55F) shows a statue located in Tokyo called 'Moyai', not a 'Moai' from the Easter Island. #emojitrivia
So i'm guessing you like using them. I'm interested in why they appeal too, so feel free to say. Cheers for reading.
Well, I actually dont use them often. I just thought they would work quite well as a "lead-in" for some fun facts (I'm trying to do daily emoji-based trivia posts). I think they are appealing because they seem specific but are in fact very vague. When I think about it, it is the same with pop music (think love songs) or fortunetellers.
Yes ,i see your point. Maybe vagueness is nice sometimes.
