I can't say I'm not upset by this, but then I was taught violins is not the answer.

Probably has to do with the degradation of written language. With kids using emojis more than words these days our writing is being reduced to a bunch of cymbals.

While I don't mean to harp and I'm not one to bassoon, but I've noticed moreso it's boomers who fiddle around with emojis.
