I've kinda wanted an "interesting!" reaction button for some posts, for when "brilliant" or "useful" don't quite fit. But this interesting with the monocle is normally sarcastic, to me, and I don't want to use it and offend someone!

Another part of me is getting old and has always had a low-key loathing for emoticons. Like @TwoTankAmin , I dislike feeling forced to use them when I'd rather just type normally, but social media *spits* has normalised boiling everything down to communicating in memes, no more than tweet-length and relying on little faces to express ourselves. Hmmff.

I agree... It does kinda seem sarcastic. But it can also be serious... And WHAT IF you WANT it to be sarcastic...
Cause some posts are ✨iNtErEsTiNg✨
 
Yay! It's like a forum in-joke, and some circumstances require a fuplie or two. I said it a few times the other day when my filter broke, let me tell you.
I don't curse but let me tell you... When I stub my toes really hard on something, my brain is saying a lot of things it shouldn't be 😂😂😂

See, I need you kids to teach me some of the new slang now, because I'm getting old and out of touch. It took me a while to learn that the cApItAlIsInG eVeRy OtHeR lEtTeR iS sArCaSm.

I definitely used this emotion wrong a bunch of times, even here: :fun: Because it's labelled "fun" and I thought it meant like, "playful". But seeing it in use on Twitter, which I've only just reluctantly joined, uses it to mean sarcasm/not happy?

It's like you're speaking another language sometimes :p

If always thought that one is meaning fun or playful, so I dunno 🙃
