Maybe I am too young to have this opinion but I refuse to use emojis and only use emoticons, they feel more personal to me.

I am somehow one step removed as XD feels young to me 8-)
But what is a meme if it doesn't miss GenX. Whatever. (I assume here that the 'I hate my wife' is meant to be a jab at boomer humor, but I may be wrong).
How?
XD has been used since IRC, YIM, and AIM early 2000s....
I was on BBS, Compuserve, and eventually AoL and others. I forget when I first saw it, but it felt later to me. It's possible it just wasn't popular when and where I was around and that meant I didn't see it until much later, but I don't remember it. I remember being confused the first time I saw it, wondering what it might stand for.
I have seen all of them so much, I hate them now ^-^
I was thinking about this earlier, it might just be me but I always thought the new generation of slang was just kind of lame. Of course I'm biased but like it just seems like there's not that much variety. It's just like the 14 or so different phrases they keep saying. Branch out my dudes
