I can't read emojis, part of it is the size of the things, they're way to small, but also I can't interpret them, I know that looking at a face and reading what emotion it's showing can be a problem for ND people, but everyone else seems ok with them. Ami I the only one with problems?
I am wondering, is it annoying for you to read texts where someone uses emojis?
My mum who is probably just a different generation also does not know how to handle anything besides the Standard happy and sad Face. We once looked closely at some emojis together because she asked me what they ment. We differed quite a lot in how we "translated" them and I was quite surprised.
If it is not a certain inside joke between friends or something I think I use it in a way similar to using ironic Statements: if i feel like someone will get it i use it, otherwise i dont. If I am not sure I will mostly explain what I mean anyway. And I dont mind if someone asks. Sometimes I just use emojis to make the conversation a little "lighter" and "happy" I guess. If I tell someone "yesterday I went to the zoo" it feels a little heavier to me then "yesterday I went to the Zoo 
" even though there is no deeper meaning behind the emoji.
Sometimes I just use them because I like the pictures -> 
.
So my mum just ignores them or asks "do you mean that in a good or bad way" or something along those lines if she suspects some "between the lines"-context.
May I ask how conversations in person feel for you? Do you notice when people make laughter out of embarassment or something like that? Because I know I use different Tones talking to different people amd same happens in written conversation somehow. With some it just does not feel natural to use emojis, but I assume this mostly when they dont use any.
Honestly i think to some emojis there cant be a deeper meaning. What would a brokkoli mean anyway? But it looks healthy I guess?
