【Watch Passenger 69 XXX】

Some new emoji are Watch Passenger 69 XXXcoming to iOS and Android, and we think we know how we're going to react to pretty much everything we don't like from now on.

According to Emojipedia, a total of 31 new emoji is up for approval by The Unicode Consortium this September. Ahead of the World Emoji Day which is on Sunday, we've gotten a preview of what they might look like.

The list includes donkey, goose, moose, jellyfish, blackbird, shaking face, heart in a couple of new colors, flute, wi-fi, and ginger root, to name a few.

The most interesting, and dubious, emoji in the new list is the "pushing hand," as Emojipedia calls it. Sure, it could also be interpreted as an invitation for a high five, per The Verge. But we'll call it "talk to the hand," and use it whenever someone says something dumb on the internet. Which almost never happens.

According to Emojipedia, this year has been quite emoji-scarce, with only 31 recommended new ones. Last year, we saw 112 new emoji, and in 2020, a whopping 334 new emoji were added to the Unicode standard.

The finalized emoji might look different when they launch, and not all of them might make the cut in September. Once they're finalized and launched, the new emoji must get support from vendors to actually appear on our devices. This, according to Emojipedia, might happen somewhere between October and December this year on Android, and sometime between January and October next year for other platforms, including Apple's iOS.
