i really dont know since i dont use them
Well my dear emotionless sociopath allow me to explain.
Normal non defective people have a wide range of emotions which can be expressed in a facial expression. Typically descriptions of said emotions can use many words, however a picture representative of these expressions is a far faster way of conveying said emotions.
Now that being said Mr or Ms emotionless sociopath, if I were you I would work on mimicking these facial expressions when I saw them in public. It will fool people into not knowing what a creepy and damaged fuck you are!
I'd say have a great day...but someone like you would never know the difference anyway!

Definitely the 10/10 emoji combination.
>>54535076
It used to be to better express yourself.
Since you can't really read emotion from digital text as much as you can from written text.
But that was the classic ASCII emoji's.
Present day picture emoji's are for kids.
Pls add emojis on 4chan Hiro-senpai!!! Xd
I wish people talked to me so I could use emoji.
Usenet. Everything shitty on the internet has its roots in usenet.
Avoid sarcasm and facetious remarks.
Without the voice inflection and body language of personal communication these are easily misinterpreted. A sideways smile, :-) or /s, has become widely accepted on the net as an indication that "I'm only kidding". If you submit a satiric item without this symbol, no matter how obvious the satire is to you, do not be surprised if people take it seriously.
>>54535076
black '''''people''''' ruined the internet ;(
>>54535351
Well my smartass friendly sociopath, in the written or typed word, many also find it lacks vocal tones and range. These normal (for everyone except you of course) inflections help to communicate feelings or moods to others.
In a longer more descriptive written work this is easy to convey. However in a short text message it becomes less so. Hence emoji and emoticons can be helpful to normal people to quickly make clear tone and intentions.
Once again these are things you will never understand, but with much mimicry you (like many other defective people) can at least fit in somewhat with a normal society.
Best of luck with all the terrible shit emotionless people like you tend to do!
>>54535290

>>54535614
Hey dont worry mate, there are lots of activities that non functional 'people' like yourself find semi stimulating!
Here's a sample of the activities that emotionless people may find rewarding;
Drug or substance abuse.
Theft.
Fraud.
Promiscuity.
Spousal abuse.
Murder.
Serial murder.
Mass murder.
And many others! And if you follow my advice you too can blend in with normal society enough to find plenty of (oftentimes unwilling) participants in your activities!
Just practice that mimicry anon!

You're mixing up sociopaths with autists. People here are autists, they feel emotions but they have a lot of trouble expressing them. Sociopaths are something different.
The activities autists enjoy are

>watching anime
>arguing on the internet
>mlp
>>54535729
>People don't use nigger emojis
>They don't have emotion

Well, I guess instead of criminal activities good luck with your shiny objects and poorly written fan fiction!
>>54535790
I'm sorry friend. I was thinking you were a sociopath (the racism helped sell it) but another anon informed me you were perhaps on the autistic spectrum.
So in the interest of soothing your autistic or otherwise retarded mind have a shiny picture to stare at!
I use them ironically sometimes, but I think they're stupid
Tell me anon, which is truly more autistic?

The second one requires the most effort however...
They're called EMOTICONS you fucking weebs
>>54535875
Well my friend I'm glad you asked...and your answer is the second option as in a short text it would require far more words and button presses to accomplish the same thing, but in a highly anal retentive manner.
So yes you could use one emoji, or several more words and pieces of punctuation.
>>54536085
Hey now! As was said these are autistic people. Don't trigger their autism fits or whatever it is.

>>54535076
Because emoji is life! :^)
>>54536505
The MSN Messenger ones were called emoticons though.
>>54536505
I thought emoticon came from emotion + icon and emoji came because apple loves ripping off japanese concepts.
>>54535076
I'm 18, so most people my age use emojis. I used to use them back when not many people knew that you could enable emojis (on an iPhone/iPod) because nobody elese used them. But then everyone started abusing the fuck out of them (especially niggers), especially that fucking crying face emoji, I feel like a retard when I use that or any other emojis. The problem I've had is that girls ask me why I don't use any emojis, so I started using them a little when talking to them, but I feel like a nigger just using them. The only people who don't use them are the cool hipster kids with an ironic fashion sense who hang out across the street smoking cigs. I wish I could be them, but unfortunately I have to act like a normalfag because everyone in my life is a normalfag.

>>54535076
There is no tone in words on a screen. Even worse, people can misunderstand the tone, if any, in the text. Emojis help circumvent this problem when people are connecting.
>>54535076
Because they're basic. Text emoticons are superior.
>>54535290
While I agree that there is much value in nonverbal communication that is lost in writing, trying to mimic or recreate that nonverbal communication in writing is silly at best. In fact, people have managed to communicate more than effectively using just the written word for thousands of years.

You can't be serious. How can you NOT see that there is an immediately discernible difference in expression between many of these?
If someone were to look at the Emoji One version and the Google version, which one do you think they'd perceive more immediately as happy? I wonder.
You'd have to be autistic NOT to catch it.
>>54537030
Normies don't use them. Your average business man on his way to work doesn't type
"Yee omw 2 werk rn, crash @ hiway 2day so l8 senpai 100 xDD" and a bunch of what look like crying faces
Those are people on facebook and twitter, those same people frequently get into massive arguments and family feuds while completely unaware of how much they're embarrassing themselves in front of everyone.
Those are the spergs, anon.
Why do you autists get triggered by a bunch of smiley faces? Do you think it makes you appear mature or less autistic? I understand not liking to use them but there's way too many people going full autistic rage disguised as "irony" every time someone doesn't adhere to the rules of their online secret club

>>54536440
>you can't decide whether they're smiling or in pain
A sign of autism is not being able to read other people's faces and their emotions.
Go get yourself checked, because none of these look like they are in pain; besides if it were ambiguous, you'd still be able to make out the right emotion by context (unless you're autistic).
>>54541131
>none of these look like they are in pain
It's impossible to chat correctly without the use of some markup annotations to your text that (even if not that well desu) substitute body language and inflection
emoticons are just a type of chat markup
when you're teasing your gf for example you can write
you're awful : 3
instead of the more serious
you're awful.

That's an odd interpretation. I've always taken it to mean "I'm a passive-aggressive little shitbag who thinks he can say what he wants as long as he appends the appropriate dumbass 'emote' at the end of my sentences."

Actually this first happened when you were about 8 years old, back around 2006 or something, so you probably don't remember what it was like.
They were abused to hell and back by websites and this universally pissed everyone on the internet off and they kinda disappeared.
I mean everywhere you went, there was some fucking smiley screaming
>HELLLOOO!!! CLICK HEEREEE
I believe they're the main reason why adblockers started happening.
I'm almost certain that is why you see such resentment against these fucking things around here.
People get vietman PTSD from seeing these fucking things.
>>54543018
>The mouth is ambiguous.
Ambiguous?!
The mouth is in total disconnect with the eyes. The smiley exists in a contradiction of emotion. It's attempting to convey happiness by baring its teeth in an attempt to placate the conversation and find the next opportunity to escape. (You know, the typical american “smile”)
It doesn't matter how much you try exaggerating the eyes -- which are already ambiguous, I might add -- you aren't escaping the cruel reality of that sickening grimace. The emoticon exists in a perpetual state of torment.

And like most things that are more convenient, it's also cheaper and less personal. Using your own words to indicate how you feel vs. pasting the same generic smiley face a million other people use. Emoji just reek of inauthenticity to me. I have a low opinion of anyone who uses them.

From what I understand, PTSD
Thing is I agree, I'd rather just send a normal sentence with no emoticons or emojis simply because im in no rush. in the same way im in no rush to make my words abbreviated or shorthand like ikr and most of the time emojis are really jarring to me.
I even bothered to type this up on my phone because I'm convinced that time isn't an issue at this point. spell checking is pretty decent and unless you're crossing a road or getting in/on a vehicle theres no reason you can't take your sweet ass time with a text.

autists aren't good with emotions, they can't read facial expressions and don't have friends to text.
