Ranking Emoji: The S-Tiers, the D-Tiers, and the Ones That Scare Us (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Peter and Aubrey tier-rank roughly 40 of the most-used emoji — from the S-tier greats (poop, rolling eyes, facepalm, middle finger, crying-laughing) to the D-tier offenders (the ROFL emoji, which Peter openly despises) — and in the process reveal exactly how differently a father and daughter text.
