English was due for it tbh. Do I like that it's emojis – not particularly.

But it does fill that ambiguity gap, especially when it comes to written humour.

emojis add ambiguity themselves. There are plenty of people who don’t understand sweat droplet emojis. There are definitely cultural gaps with 🙏. I think I read there are different ways to use 💀

And they look different everywhere

In some demographics it's already been that way for at least half a decade, I remember reading an article about it during COVID

We are going back to hieroglyphs! Also, didn't people die of fever in ancient Egypt due to trying to warm up?

did you know that the printing press (with movable letters) was invented in china around 1000 AD?

the only reason why the modern age wasn't started in china (instead of in europe) is because the chinese alphabet was too complicated for the printing press (too many letters to search from). the latin alphabet is simpler and therefore didn't have that problem

I imagined it was read by Cave Johnson; it adds a certain something.

I don't know who Cave Johnson is so I had to imagine it being read by Dwayne Johnson which didn't really add anything.

Especially anything to do with lemons
