Description
Picture a face with a smug, knowing half-smile and one raised eyebrow. Originally tagged as a general smiling face, users quickly adopted it for flirtation, innuendo, and self-satisfaction. Snapchat once used this emoji to indicate a one-sided best-friend relationship — they send you a lot of snaps but you don't reciprocate. The suggestive undertone makes it one of the most context-dependent emoji.
