Emojis are fun, and funny, and that’s why we use them. That’s why I thought I used them. But is it possible we use yellow faces because we actually have yellow bellies when it comes to getting real? Have emojis stripped us of our ability to use our words when we’re, you know, feeling things?

1) What can a company learn from this “week without emojis”?

2) Can’t emojis actually help convey emotion better (which is why they are even called emoji)?
