#122Tangential, but I can hardly be the only one who thinks emoji are stuck in a preteen mindset, with poop being the naughtiest thing expressible. Which serious language has no words for sex, drugs and the tragedies that haunt a human life?
Hindi has words but not commonly used and understood slang for many of these concepts.

Yes, this is because emojis are created by committee. The Unicode committee to be precise. If instead emojis could be drawn and inserted in messages and maintained and shared through emoji-libraries by actual users, then we would get an actual naturally evolving language. Much more interesting.
That's probably also why we don't have a real gun emoji (or it's rendered as a water pistol in many places).
Although guns aren't the nicest invention, they are real and sometimes need to be represented graphically.

They are glyphes. You don't expect the roman letters to individually represent all concepts. In the same way, emoji are glyphes and just symbols. We will attach meaning to each symbol, combinations of symbols and context, and will express whatever we want with it. Just like people say "this is the shit", and "this is shit", and it says litterally the opposite of each other. E.G: we already use the eggplant to talk ab…
And disappointingly, all emojis used for sexual inuendo are excluded from the emoji kitchen.
The sexual inuendo combos may probably be some of the most used combos other than the official ones.
The prudishness really is disappointing.

It's not preteen, it's corporate.

And if I might add: why do we need multiple colors for a heart or multiple hearts? One wasn't enough? Are we going to cover all the drinks know by mankind or one generic "alcoholic" drink was okay? What about flowers? Do we need to cover them all or a generic "flower" pictogram is enough?
