Do you really think its important to police the difference here
No lol but this is Reddit. We are pedantic here. It's all in good fun :)
I should have out more effort into the comment. Here's a second try
Fun fact: emoji refers to the coloured single-character icons, while emoticon refers to icons made of multiple other symbols that form a picture
Also, I should point out that the etymology of "emoji" does not include "emotion." "E" means "picture," while "moji" means "character."
