Enlightening reading. Emojis perplex me and good to know you share my bewilderment about the 'thank you' emoji. I have an ignore birthdays policy unless it's a close friend and one-on-one because I feel it's too exhausting, while I do agree there's something communitarian about Whatsapp birthday wishes. Good you made the point and maybe I'll start wishing birthdays a bit more.

I was anti-emoji but got converted! And I'm now definitely a pro-wishing people person now. Only because I can manage it.
