What was a situation in which you unintentionally sent someone the wrong emoji or emoticon?

   

 


Sending someone a text meant for someone else or sending it to the right person but not worded the way you meant it are occurrences that can happen from time to time, but what about sending an emoji or an emoticon that portrays something that you really didn’t mean?

    I always used thumbs up and apparently that can be interpreted as "f*ck off and leave me alone", which I didn't know until fairly recently. But, to me, the "okay" emoji looks like the ASL sign for "as$hole", so that just doesn't seem right to use either! I'm better off not using them at all. I don't even like texting. Grrrr! Get off my lawn!

    I don't do emojis so well on my phone.

    If I received 16 emojis as in your posted question, I would assume Sybil was texting me.     ;)
