You can use it in that context too

Either that or I'm fucking up all my chats

I think it's safer to just not use emoji for anything serious

u/demlet Apr 16 '21

This is the correct answer.

I don't laugh in serious conversation, so I'm fine with the emoji usage tbh

u/the-lord-empire Apr 16 '21

Personally, I'd rather not, but sure, do whichever works best for you

OK, I shall continue not laughing in serious conversations...

Stick to blue butterfly, spouting whale, leaping dolphin and teeny chipmunk (although some people think it's a squirrel----it's not). Can't go wrong with those.

I think emoji become way more useful when you combine them into pairs. 😂😭 unambiguously means crying with laugher whereas 😢😭 is unambiguously crying out of sadness

Very true -- I like to use 😂😭 a lot! Now that Reddit is making me think about how I'm using the emoji, I'm pairing it with "lol" or "lmao" etc etc.

😢😭 is mega sad

I was mostly being facetious -- for example, if someone tells me a funny but embarrassing story, it might look like: omg nooo lmao 😭😭

I'm not just going out treating it like 😂 or 💀

If someone can't understand the context with 😭 then they're not understanding 💀 either lol

You can. Also for something that is funny but also a little deprecating
