It brings me joy to hear someone call them emoticons.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 22 hours ago

Every once in a while I call my picture an avatar just to remind people "profile pic" is boring and "pfp" doesn't actually mean that.

emoticons were the correct answer, emojis were a mistake.

Brainrot zoomer language was pioneered by members of our generation, yet is cringe to us. Same with "XD :3 ><" and the generation before us. Stuff becomes cool because older people start it, only for younger people to embody it. "UwU" is a gift that we ought to respect (≧ω≦)

I like to think >.< And :3 lives on, but it's only furries at this point isn't it. As a cat I will take :3 to my grave

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 days ago

worry not, it's furries and a lot of submissive people

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Not a furry, still use :3

I have three cats though

it was moderately post ironic for us, when we used it. It went from being a once in a while thing just to add some additional slang. To a post hyper irony period where the joke is that the words we used dont make any sense and have no meaning, therefore you can just do that with EVERY word.
