Why Emoji Meanings Matter
Most emojis have two lives: the official Unicode name, and what the internet actually uses them for. The 💀 skull rarely means death — it means something is hilariously funny. The 🍑 peach is rarely about fruit. Knowing both layers keeps you from misreading messages (or sending the wrong signal yourself).
