I don't care either way, but I always thought it was funny how reddit was so vehemently anti-emoji

Blah, emojis ๐Ÿ’€

Btw so what I realized is that the crappy thing about emojis is that they stand out, possibly due to the bright colors.

I mean, is this annoying? ๐Ÿ‘€ Not really, I think.

But this? ๐Ÿคช It breaks the flow of text and pulls attention to itself.

Heck, even the more skin-accurate variants aren't all that annoying: ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿฝ it's just the yellow ones. Why can't we have the basic smilies in more muted colors?
