Oh also, I support because I've seen a lot of users using the copy paste skull emoji or posting :skull: and I know that must mean a lot of users would find it useful

Until it goes down the path of ‘yeet’, ‘no u’, ‘bussin’, and ‘poggers’.

what?

I was referencing those because they're all internet slang from recent years that died and now nobody uses them anymore. Same thing will happen to this emoji soon.

its an emoji, so will people stop using the laughing emoji soon?

It :b:eing an emoji doesn't make it immune to dying. Also, laughing is an action, so the emoji represents it. That is its one use and it does not change. ‘Skull’ however, is not an action so its meaning is whatever people want it to be, which can change and the old meaning can die. That's what I mean when I say it will die in a year.

We have an emoji where you have to use

: lol :

to activate it. It's internet slang and it might eventually die but not as far as I can see, besides not every emoji has to be something that will be relevant forever, but we know skull will last us a very long time and maybe as long as Scratch is available

This is one example, it doesn't represent everything. The skull emoji will probably just die along with 99% of the other internet terms and emoji meanings after a few years. Also, you said that emojis don't have to be relevant. The only emoji that's dead is the illuminati one, and that was only added as an april fools prank. I don't think scratch team will implement this emoji as a serious emoji for people to use.

Anyway, Challenge: find one internet term or emoji meaning coined 3-5 years ago that's still widely used.

Edit: turns out the forums don't like the :b: emoji.
