I just checked my emoji set. 13 emojis that you can use to express some kind of joy/cheerful mood that isn't associated with food or feelings towards other beings. Including those (like ๐Ÿฅฐ) there are many more. I'm probably old man yelling at clouds here, but I'm sick of everyone using the 'I AM CRYING WITH LAUGHTER' emoji to simply say anything between 'huh, yeah' and 'haha, that's good'. Of course I don't expect the emoji police to show up and arrest them for not producing tears, but this basically inflates (deflates?) the value of everything else. To me it feels like writing your whole text with all caps. If everything is highlighted, then nothing is highlighted.
