Why NOBODY should be using the 'thumbs up' emoji in 2022 - and the 10 symbols only 'old people' use that have Gen Z rolling their eyes

Fscking Gen Z! Interrupting when we’re talking

 

[PrimeSteak]

One needs to start thinking about where it all went wrong when Emojies cause you mental anguish.

Yeah, if Emojis and "thumbs-up" cause you mental distress, you have bigger problems than those two things...

Didn't know you batted for that side.

I always combine it with this one

 

[SAguy]

Sometimes I think that Gen Z is doing a few things much better than any previous generation, and then I see this rubbish

 

[Howdy]

I vote against this motion, Honorable 3WA.

Sending a thumbs-up can be seen as passive aggressive and even confrontational, according to Gen Z who claim they feel attacked whenever it is used.

Whether the chat is informal, between friends or at work the icon appears to have a very different, 'rude' meaning for the younger generation.

A 24-year-old on Reddit summed up the Gen Z argument, saying it is best 'never used in any situation' as it is 'hurtful'.

'No one my age in the office does it, but the Gen X people always do it. Took me a bit to adjust and get [it] out of my head that it means they're mad at me,' he added.
