Emoji

Between social media and texting, the emoji has become an integral part of everyday life.

One of the newly announced emoji being added to the ever-growing repertoire of our modern-day hieroglyphics is our very own state-flag star: The American Bison.

"Sorry for the inconvenience *insert frowning emoji*, but I am out of the office today."

If you think it's just the Australian flag, think again.

If you're not a millennial, it might be hard to fathom a world in which there are studies done to decide which silly face is texted the most.
