Drooling Face Emoji
How many interpretations and perspectives there are to this drooling emoji? Well, I could only guess how many. This emoji is characterized by closed or open eyes, depending on the emoji provider accompanied by a slightly open mouth dripping with saliva. It somehow emits and radiates the meaning of a strong desire for something, maybe through food or something.
Thus, in this way, it somehow sends out some fervent or intense appreciation of ideas or things like a brand new car or a shiny pair of shoes. This emoji can also be utilized to suggest a lust for sleep or sometimes convey stupidity with its slack-jaw and slobbering mouth. Take note that the drooling emoji can denote inappropriate action, so use it wisely.
Zany Face
This emoji was approved in the year 2017 as part of Unicode 10.0 and was added to Emoji 5.0. Having like a goofy face and at some point wacky with its white eyes that show one yes is larger than the other, and big and wide grin together with its cockeyed expression shows its flippancy.
Platforms such as Apple convey the emoji with its head tilted, and its tongue stuck out; there are also other variations where it has a full-toothed grin, emitting a more deranged look. The Zany emoji signifies actions like being goofy and silly. It can also evoke having crazy energy but in a positive way.
Happy Sweat Emoji
With its weird and odd smile and sweat on its left forehead, this emoji somewhat encapsulates the feeling of tension and embarrassment and even relief. This emoji would be interpreted as if saying the phrase ‘Whew!’ and then wiping up the sweat lingering in the forehead after what happened or the discomfort.
Fun fact about the Happy Sweat emoji is that it is a close relative of the “Smiling Face With Open Mouth,” since the two share a visual with the exact mouth half-open. It may confuse you or not, but this emoji is commonly used to denote exercising, especially if bops in your treadmill workout are thumping and hard-hitting.
Neutral Face Emoji
If at some point, your friend or someone close to you is asking for your opinion, and you do not want to feel them insulted or wish to offend or upset them, it is beneficial just to shimmy them with this emoji. This emoji is usually known as ‘Straight-faced Emoji’ since it denotes not saying anything or not going to comment about that matter. This emoji will help you stay away from committing grave taboo comments and judgments, may it be in terms of your friend’s mother claiming that a ritual cured her hair fall.
Neutral Face emoji is characterized by a simple yellow face, with a closed mouth that is conveyed in a flat straight line. This corresponds to sentiments that are impartial and sometimes a little bit of exasperation. This emoji is a perfect fit for the passive-aggressive ambiance, much like Kristen Stewart’s face in the film Twilight, just pure drab and disinterested vibes showing it out.
