More than two decades after the invention of the first emoji, a happy face, emoticons have been designed to represent almost every possible human emotion.

Each emoji conveys a different feeling and emotion, such as happiness, sadness, fear, mischief, horror, infatuation, disgust, and boredom. In addition, there are emojis for objects, concepts, sports, places, animals, food and symbols.

That is why they are so popular in the context of social networks, as they serve to illustrate and guide what we are saying.

From 2013 to 2023, hundreds of new emojis have become part of our repertoire. But there is one that stands out from the rest. This is the face with tears of happiness that shows digital users that they are ‘crying with laughter’.
