The what the fuck are you talking about emoji works because it's a shared cultural reference to that specific scene. Jackie's WTF face would be more universal, but lacks that in group meme quality.
emoji
A workshop for the memes of production.
Submit new emoji here.
A good submission is:
- Visually clear at a small size (120 pixel width) [This does not mean upload the small image, this means upload the source image or full size cutout but test prior.]
- Have a transparent background to the greatest degree possible. This online tool can remove many backgrounds.
- Display a clear emotion or purpose
- If including text, should be properly sized to be readable
- "Evergreen" and not something that will be irrelevant after the next news cycle
- Formatted in PNG, GIF, or SVG to make our file optimization cycles easier. If svg initially, send svg in a seperately hosted link to WhyEssEff. Same with gif, as we render them as mp4 IIRC.
- Have proposed title as the title of the post, nothing more, nothing less.
- Post body should include a suggested category and keywords.
- Max height of 3 times the width.
Rules:
- No reactionary or reactionary-adjacent expressions. The purpose of an image is what it expresses. Some clear examples for this rule:
- Allowed: Broken fasces, burning stars-and-bars, rotated Mussolini
- Disallowed: Body-shaming, Pepes, gay-shaming the enemy (e.g. those pictures of Putin and Trump that libs love to post), certain hateful wojaks (even if recontextualized)
- If you think you have touched on a grey area, see rule 7 for how to litigate this.
- ~~Nothing Vaush-related is allowed~~
- To be honest, I broke this rule, so it's pretty much moot. Just run it by me first in DMs or matrix. Vaush is a bit of a dead horse, so to speak, so they're still generally discouraged. The qualification for a viable emote referencing his existence is more a matter of execution

- No desecration of religious imagery. This includes things like burning Israeli/Saudi flag emojis. If you can modify the flags while still accurately representing countries without including said imagery, it is much preferred.
- A grey area can be argued around whether the symbol has colloquially evolved past its religious origins (one example of this that can be relatively agreed upon is the Union Jack, which is more a symbol of colonialism if anything). See rule 7 for how to litigate this.
- Nothing sexually explicit or overtly horny is allowed
- :hentai-free:
- No sectarianism in submissions. Pro-tendency content is fine, but we will not accept content degrading specific tendencies.
- No gore, no SA, no sui-bait. Nothing that could reasonably trigger a comrade.
- If you think you're touching on a grey area with a submission, message @whyesseff:matrix.org to clear it before you post.
- DISCLAIMER: Clearing does not necessarily mean that I'll add it, just that it's alright to submit and the rules will not be the barrier to its addition

It's a 2000s-era advice animal meme, I imagine many of the people on this website weren't even online when it was still popular. Like me, I'm not that old
Owls don't count. Owl memes never die.
Dude, it's a scene from a 2019 movie and the meme wasn't a thing until 2020:
On October 11th, 2019, crime thriller El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie premiered[2] (scene shown below, right). In a flashback scene, Walter and Jesse are dining together at a restaurant, discussing food, their plans and lives.
On March 13th, 2020, iFunny[3] user CosmicRewind posted a Based on What? meme based on the latter scene. In the multi-panel meme, Jesse attempts to explain what "based" means to Walter, with him not understanding it and asking Jesse to explain himself (shown below).
Lol, that is not an 2000's-era advice animal meme. It's as recent as covid ffs.
I assume they were talking about the Jackie Chan meme.
Oh. Yeah, rereading it, I guess I'm not sure which they're talking about for sure. It still seems like they meant the Jesse-Wtf one, given the comment they were responding to, and also since I don't think that Jackie Chan image was ever really a meme, let alone popular. But I could be wrong. TrashcanOfIdeology, If you mean the Jackie Chan meme is 2000's era advice animal, then my mistake, it could well be.
No worries, I was talking about the jackie chan meme being old and long irrelevant except to those of us who were terminally online in the 2000s, but I can see how you could've assumed otherwise from the way I wrote.
Speak for yourself.
I don't share that culture/scene/group
I've never seen the show, i picked it up through cultural osmosis.
You may not, but that doesn't change the fact that it is an extremely well known meme that internet culture in general understands and uses. Frank is speaking not just for himself, but for the broader internet meme culture. It's like the
series.
I'm sure you could find images of people, even famous people, being more expressive and emotive with the "you mean... ...right? ...right??" sentiment. But nearly everyone already knows this one. It's just an internet thing at this point. Same with the Jesse-Wtf emoji. That's what Frank means by shared cultural reference (I'm pretty sure anyway, I'm not trying to put words in anyone's mouth).
Also, the is imo a rather perfect expression for the way it usually gets used.
We do already have other "wtf?" emojis like that express a similar but slightly different sentiment (though they also lack that cultural touchstone).
The image of Walt seems very expressive to me, but it's not the same kind of "wtf" as your Jackie Chan emoji. The Walt one expresses more of a dumbfoundedness, a kind of mild shock along with confusion and importantly, a bit of disdain. There are a lot of circumstances when that kind of specific sentiment is what's called for. That's not to say your Jackie Chan one wouldn't also have moments where it would be more fitting and the better choice, but it's showing a very different kind of emotion, one that I would expect would find moments of appropriate use fewer and farther between. In short, the JC emoji would be for different circumstances, with more over the top exasperation, and wouldn't fit well in some places where the Walt emoji does. So I would say sure, add it to the bunch, it is just definitely not a replacement of the perennial emoji that is Walt's "Jess, wtf?!"
I think we're running into a definition of fuck conflict here.
The way you want to say WTF and how you portray it has relevance.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
In the absence of black_mold_futures, I just don't think there are that many appropriate uses for . RIP.
jackie admitted to physically abusing his toddler son and disowned his daughter for being a lesbian, would prefer not to be reminded of all that seeing this as an emoji
Walter White did way worse tbh if we want to split hairs here (username: CoolerOpposide said, dripping with sarcasm)
i get the comedic sentiment, and the following isn’t aimed at you
to further clarify, other terrible people emojis here are used because they are terrible to mock them, this one bothers me because it’s proposed to be used a generic wtf and glosses over his child abuse and homophobia. Chan has this kid-friendly public image and got to star in an animated kids show for fuck sake while being a piece of shit and this feels like continued whitewashing. jack black gets more heat and attention here for being kid-friendly while libbing out but an actual child abuser homophobe gets a proposed ‘clean’ emoji trophy
I think both are good :3
Kawaii desu ne :3c
Seeing this 2011-era pic has me thinking of the AVGN theme
he's gonna take you back to the past
to see the ancient memes that suck asshe'd rather have a pedobear
take a diarrhea dump in his ear
PS I don't think the Jackie Chan pic sucks, but I had to go with the song.
Classico
I’m sorry but you’re wrong for thinking that is not a good emoji.
I'm right u'r wrong
how old are you?
none of your business
