This has to be the dumbest premise I’ve read on this forum thus far. You’re letting yourselves get worked up over emoji reactions? And what’s worse is you’re blaming another user (Blankspace) over what’s clearly a personal issue.
As for “bad news”, I hate to break it to you all but not every single news story is going to be good. Only one person in this thread has given sensible advice:
Fix what’s in your control, and move on.
This is an even worse take. So now people on this forum have to police themselves on reaction emojis because it might offend someone? While we’re at it, why don’t we just call this forum “We Happy Few”. If seeing negative emojis offends you, perhaps that’s a sign you need to step away from the internet for an hour or two. Just a thought.
And shame on @Jonah and @Henry for even entertaining this nonsense.
