Seven new emojis could be on the way, and you'll never use six of them. But you might use the other one every single day.
A group called the Unicode Consortium decides which new emojis are considered each year. And the most useful one from their latest batch is . . . "Face with Bags Under Eyes." Like, I'm so exhausted I can't even type the words.
There's already a yawning emoji, so they could decide it's redundant. But if it's approved, it would hit Apple and Android devices this fall, or by early 2025.
The other six are: Fingerprint . . . leafless tree . . . harp . . . shovel . . . a splatter mark . . . and a "root vegetable" emoji that's either a beet or a turnip.
There's technically an eighth they're considering: The flag of a tiny island in the English Channel called Sark . . . but no one uses the flag emojis, so who cares.
