      I remember this paper making a few headlines when it was published. It’s cool to start seeing generational trends in how emojis are used. I imagine they’ll flow in and out of the zeitgeist the same way clothing and other pop cultural trends do.

      Also, my condolences to GenX. Authors didn’t even bother including them 💀
