Been there forever on signal and telegram?
seeing 🙏 as a high five and not a praying gesture makes it even more harsh
RIP
(I’mma pray for you)
On most platforms you can type ’ pray’ and it will give this one: 🙏 for high five: ✋.
The other great ambiguity is hug/jazz hands. 🤗
I’m sorry your mom just died. *jazz hands*
Wat?
Answering “thank you” to “I love you” is a polite way to deal with unwanted advances of another person. The reaction emoji under the message is commonly interpreted as “thank you”.
That’s supposed to mean “thank you”? I always thought it was a begging gesture.
I’ve always been torn on whether it’s supposed to be a high five or praying hands. Is thank you really a common meaning?
Emojis are pretty hard for my autistic ass.
It’s even more confusing: Emojis were invented in Japan, which adds another layer of cultural differences. Holding your hands flat against each other is a common sign for prayer in Christianity, but in Japan it is a commen gesture for giving thanks. Hence the “official” meaning: Thank you
Commonly high fives arr given by the palms of the same hand therefore the thumb would’ve been visible at least on one of the hands if ot was a high five emoji
