I'm so fucking made. But so fucking happy that this is still happening lol
I read it as "I'm at a loss for words." right off the bat before I even realized what it was.
Clearly I have ascended to a higher plane of meme-istance
Congratulations, you are now allergic to grass.

Outstanding work, I will be using this
"first and only Kanji".
If English had other logograms, I 🤔 what they'd be?

Aren't emojis pictograms and ideograms but not usually logograms? They're direct depictions of concepts, not usually direct stand-ins for words like logograms are.
Better examples of logograms in English I think are &, $, %, @,+,=, etc. We actually have a bunch we use all the time.
Specifically they said 'Kanji', though, so I think they're talking more about the actual character structure of :.|:;.
People forgetting about "&."
Technically kanji refers to the Japanese writing system, loss is a logogram, English already has them (see $ and @)
My bank won't let me see any $.
which works better?
I'd say the first looks closest to a real glyph
The last one looks closest to something I'd be arsed to scribble tho
If you're trying for kanji like depictions then the first one but you have to work on your strokes. The box should be a single stroke for the top and the right line. But you gave me an idea for an art thingy in gonna create and hang in my apartment
:.|:; HOLY SHIT

I can be trusted with this
If you couldn’t, I’d be at a :.|:; for words
Can't believe the :.|:; is still being felt all these years alter

Edit: cool

Thanks for the instructions. Have a high five followed by a fist bump.

Loss is the new triforce
That's exactly what I was just thinking! Lemmy's formatting doesn't work the same way, so it doesn't work correctly here. I think this is the best I can get it, lol.

Well, no. It wouldn't be the first kanji of English. Kanji is the Japanese pronunciation of 漢字 (hanzi), where 漢 means han/China and 字 means character/letter. Ergo, it makes no sense to call it "the English language's first and only Chinese character."
If you need to use a Japanese word to describe this, then 絵文字 (e mo ji; picture, character/symbol) fits better, but we already have several words for that, like pictogram or pictograph. One could argue that smileys fall into this category as well. So perhaps it's a smiley.
The etymological fallacy...
I bet you're fun at parties
Learning random cool stuff like this is part of why I like lemmy, and why I used to like reddit. Please don't shut down constructive contributions with low effort snark. And before you use your line on me, if I were fun at parties, I would get off lemmy and go to parties.
