See it plastered everywhere these days Edit; I used the wrong emoji, i meant this one ‘💀’
I don’t really know what “original use” would mean – most emojis aren’t really made with some specific usage in mind, they’re just pictograms. The use is to be able to show a skull when you wanna
Not answering the question, but Lemmy lets you edit the title so you can fix it directly :)
Sometimes I might copy the original title into the post body, so that the context of the replies still make sense
What’s also funny though is that “I meant this one 💀” also could be correct use of the emoji. It made sense in my head till I scrolled back to look at it
Good to know, thanks!
The skull and crossbones has pirate connotations. Or just for danger/death.
It was added to Unicode in 1993 so it’s an original emoji.
1993, wow. That’s OG.
A whitish-gray, cartoon-styled human skull with large, black eye sockets. Commonly expresses figurative death, e.g., dying from extreme laughter, frustration, or affection.
Popular around Halloween. Not to be confused with ☠️ Skull and Crossbones, though their applications may overlap.
Skull was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
I forgor 💀
Lol I didn’t know Emojipedia existed. Might be amusing. Thanks!
