And they now use them on cash register keys in the fast food joints. Those numbers and how to use them confuse the younger workers.

I hate emojis. I never pay any attention to them. I used to think is was for kids.

I understand, and have used, the basic smiley faces. You know, showing that something is meant as a joke, to avoid insult, as humour is often hard to guess from straight text. What I don't get are all these new ones... Just glancing at the collection you showed, what on Earth is meant by a rabbit? Or a fish? Nope, not a clue!

Smilies? Use by adults is premature senility. I abhor such childish expression.

I guess I could just use "/facepalm/" in my posts instead. Text alone in posts does not convey the information that speech inflection and body language would supply when conversing in person. Smilies are one way to partially offset those inadequacies. If you don't like them, don't use them, but don't disparage those of us who find them useful.
