Ok, the title was an overuse of emojis as a joke. But seriously, I like some limited use of emojis because it helps me convey intention/emotion so that I’m less misunderstood and also adds some more feeling/fun to text content 😄

    Using one or two occasionally to convey emotion or humor is one thing, but they’re neither words not punctuation marks. Using them as such is not just annoying, but actively disrupts the rhythm of the words you’re reading - especially if they’re plunked into the middle of a sentence or clause. It’s like saying “I love HEART cheeseburgers.” Go ahead, say it that way to somebody in person and see how they react.
