Shortage of emoji

Dear Matt,

I love your posts - you collect the high points as fast as NPR!

I notice you are running low on emojis to express dismay - shock - horror - bafflement - fear - trepidation - hilarity…

Keep up the good work!

HA! I was going to write out a long response using almost only emojis but I decided against it that. Instead you can have a :tumbler_glass: instead.

We could always submit our own proposal to create new emoji… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

The evaluation process is quite strict though and would take a year and a half to complete… :anguished:

Better get started :wink:
