Title: Emoji Use Around the World
Post by: LongBlade on April 22, 2015, 01:31:07 PM
This study (yes, there is one) of which countries use which emojis around the world is interesting, but fairly in-depth. You'll want to read the entire thing to get the most out of the trivia here. There are a lot of interesting tidbits, but in the interest of space I'll only cite a couple here. Feel free to dig around yourself and call out some you find interesting.

Australia uses more drinking emojis than any other country.

Canada uses the most violent emojis. Germany the least.

Malaysians use fart and poop emojis at twice the average rate.

Spain uses the most party emojis.

Russians use twice as many cold weather emojis as the average.

Vietnamese use a grimmacing emoji almost four times the average.

Interesting and weird, all at the same time!

Hrmmm..

Skulls, meat, and birthday cake.  Sounds like either a good party or a really bad one.
