We would love to see you or your friends attempt to represent any of the emoji that the Emoji Consortium deems unrepresentable!
If you want to see an emoji added for a critical human concept such as TICKLE, CLIMATE CHANGE, ALLERGY, OBJECT RELATED, WHAT EVEN IS THIS EMOJI, PROBABLY FACE, DUMPSTER FIRE, SAVING MONEY, DANGEROUS SUN, or HANGRY, then make your case! We’ll take the best submission and attempt to get that emoji reconsidered – likely learning some further fun facts along the way.
