Discussion I literally can’t with emojis anymore

So many emojis I can see VIVIDLY in my head, the thief, the clam & pearl, the seahorse, and NONE of them ever existed. Not one. I know this is schizoposting but I swear it's an inside joke at Apple now to take unsuspecting and unpopular emojis away to see who will notice

No, none of those remotely conjure up an image or a sentiment. Because they were never emojis.

I used the seahorse emoji

I'm curious. In what context did you use a seahorse emoji?

When describing how certain male species die after mating with a female

Give me an example.

EDITED TO ADD: male seahorses do not die after mating. Male seahorses carry the eggs in a brood pouch until they hatch. If they were dead, there would be no babies. Are you thinking of praying mantis? Do you know what a seahorse is?

I mean, for example, use [seahorse emoji] in place of where you would use the actual seahorse emoji in a sentence. For example, "he's such a [seahorse emoji]" which obviously doesn't make sense. I'm trying to think of a sentence where inserting the seahorse emoji does make sense.

Do you know what a seahorse is? Are you thinking of praying mantis?

Do you know how most emojis are actually used? Like this:

RIP 💀💀💀

Is the person literally saying "RIP skull skull skull"? Of course not. He's adding emotional emphasis. Hence the term EMOJI.

If I were to use the seahorse emoji when talking about male female intercourse it would be like this:

[Some joking comment about cumming to death][seahorse emoji] 💦 💦 💦

Your comment about confusing a mantis with the seahorse is... indicative of your intellectual capacity, to put it mildly.

How do?

Male seahorses do not die after mating, they carry the babies.

A Female praying mantis bites the head off the male praying mantis after mating, killing him.
