Recreational Outrage at Offensive Emojis! Day 4

Please remember folks:

These are just jokes and not real opinions.

Digging DEEP with the creativity muscles, to come up with the funny, from pretty much NOTHING.

Such as comedy color commentary on randomly selected emojis.

If you really want to laugh, go to @themadgoat.

That dude is a bloody comic genius - his economy of words, his creativity, his cutting style is what I aspire to.

I salute you, goat 🐐.

That being said, my sincere thanks to everyone upvoting and resteeming the content you find here.

As you all know, your comments, which have upvoted and resteemed my posts, have been getting MY upvotes on their comments!

As a result, as I'm sure you've seen over the last week, my Steem Power and upvote value has diminished to almost nothing.

It takes nearly 4 days for the power to regain 100% - and without my own vote on my own posts, I'm hurting both those who upvote me, AND myself.

I haven't upvoted my own posts in over a week.

An Honorable intention of mine, but foolish and shortsighted in the pursuit of generosity to others.

YOU! 🙂

One can be both generous to oneself AND to others: They are not mutually exclusive.

Recognizing this,

I'm going back to upvoting my own posts again 😀

25% of the post value gets distributed amongst everyone who upvotes a post, so upvoting my own stuff helps everyone, including me.

In three days, when I'm back to 100%, I'll go back and upvote some of my older posts along with those commenters who have helped us out by resteeming them.

Today's recreational outrage emoji: 😷

Can you guess which one made me recreationally furious?

It's the one that's assigned a racial identity to the person wearing the surgical mask... 😷

SERIOUSLY?!?

Come ON emoji creators!

Yes, yes, we've all been to airports, or big, busy cities where we've all seen the one odd Asian person or two, perfectly healthy, wearing a surgical mask like this one and walking briskly through the crowd with a defined purpose...

Did this have to be so definitively demonstrated in this emoji?

This image is courtesy of google:

Look, maybe it's a compliment that some Asian people are very, very smart and there are many who are surgeons and just too busy to stop and take their mask off unless they're eating.

OR, they're being very respectful to the public and trying to prevent the spread of germs or halitosis (bad breath).

I'm outraged! either way!

Recreationally, of course. 😉

Whoever designed this emoji drew it the way they did on purpose: 😷

I doubt they were trying to make the surgeon look tired after a long day of breast implants...

More emojis for you, to join me, in being recreationally enraged at, coming tomorrow!

@scan0017 😘

Careful with the comments here folks: Remember, this is all for fun - please be thoughtful and considerate in your comments: The blockchain is forever...

Have an awesome day Steemit!

Ok, this is ridiculous.

To see the image I'm trying to demonstrate here, get your phone 📲 and type the word "mask" into a text. As I inserted throughout this post after trying it myself 🙄

The emoji that shows up is the one that keeps getting blocked from the upload (assuming it's not showing up on your side). 😷

Thanks for playing, and have fun!

More on the way tomorrow!!!
