As usual, I’m different from most.
I think emojis are childish and for girls. Just say what you have to say, and you don’t need to add pictures to it.
Call me a curmudgeon, but I feel like a child using them. I cringe when my male friends use them, mostly because they get it wrong or it’s a desperate try to look hip.
Despite my penchant for dick humor and even the turd emoji, I won’t use them either.
Delusions of Adequacy 
Emojis are the pet rocks of print interface and will go the way of Rubik cubes, fidget spinners, mullets, and 8-tracks.
Must say, tho, as a compulsive writer I use entirely too much folderol in my printed stuff, such as bolding, italicizing, CAPS, font shifting, size shift, color shift, underlining, and improper use of various punctuation devices.
One of my colleagues in the English department at the local university said that sometimes my inputs are like a perfectly fine wall covered in glaring graffiti by roving adolescent schizos.
She also liked to steal my ideas, especially my neologisms, if not my style.
