over time this might affect our collective consciousness in regards to the purpose & function of the eggplant; and
can we please just get a straightforward penis emoji already?? Half the human population has a penis attached to their bodies anyway, why are we still so prude about incorporating actual penises into mainstream vernacular & daily life?

The peach emoji was added in Unicode 6.0 ... which came out in 2010. How were you using it in the 1990s?

I'm not talking about emoji. I'm talking about, well, talk. Words.
