      I used to have this otherwise kind and friendly but absolutely not sharp coworker who always tried to force laughs out of you whenever she tried to say something funny. Like, you would be there, smiling, and she comes over, grabs you by the arms, starts shaking them and laughs very loud while looking you in the eye with her crazy stare until you do, too.

      Yeah… whenever I see someone apply these exaggerated emojis to their mild content I just think they are somewhat similar.

      Who in their right mind looks at this and starts to laugh so hard that they literally end up in tears?

        People don’t even use it for funny things though. I only see it as a way to shame people, as if they’re laughing at you. Except it’s almost always just stupid deflection when they don’t have any objective arguments to offer. It’s what I imagine debates would be like in “Idiocracy”, and it makes me lose hope for humanity.
