I'm not an emoji guy. I don't really send emojis to people. There's only one I do send.
Uh-huh. I'll send you a thumbs up emoji.

**Rafe** (2:14)
You're emojially closed off.

**Rizz** (2:16)
I am. But when I send you a thumbs up, what do you think?

**Lern** (2:19)
It's fine. I don't expect a lot from you. Like if I get that from like somebody that does emoji, I go, this is rude. What's wrong with you?

**Rizz** (2:27)
Okay, so I didn't know that apparently that's a thing.

**Rafe** (2:29)
Yeah, thumbs up is dickhead.

**Lern** (2:31)
Yeah, you're kind of like just being short. Yeah, you're being curt.

**Rizz** (2:33)
But I'm not though.

**Lern** (2:34)
No, you're fine.

**Rafe** (2:35)
You're not, but it comes, the thumbs up has evolved. What used to be like a, hey, cool man, has become like dismissive.

**Scott** (2:42)
Cool, cool man.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:42)
Okay, I didn't know that.

**Rizz** (2:44)
I was reading about it this morning. Apparently, Gen Z is canceling the thumbs up emoji.

**Scott** (2:49)
Yeah.

**Rizz** (2:49)
I go, what? I just hopped on this thing.

**Rafe** (2:52)
It's over, man.

**Rizz** (2:53)
They're arguing that it comes off as cold, dismissive or passive aggressive.

**Lern** (2:57)
Yes.

**Rafe** (2:58)
Which is interesting because there is a thumbs down emoji.

**Lern** (3:00)
Right, like why wouldn't you just use that?

**Rizz** (3:02)
So yeah, that's what I would send you.

**Rafe** (3:03)
Thumbs down is two on the nose.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:05)
You do thumbs down too?

**Rizz** (3:06)
No. Well, I will do a thumbs down if there's news I don't like.

**Lern** (3:10)
Okay.

**Rizz** (3:10)
But thumbs up is yeah.

**Lern** (3:11)
Me too. Proud.

**Rafe** (3:12)
Okay. Most people see a thumbs up as a passive aggressive, like.

**Lern** (3:16)
Good for you.

**Rafe** (3:18)
Or like you don't like what you just got, especially if it's like you're talking to a person romantically. I dare you to accidentally miss the heart and send a thumbs up.

**Lern** (3:25)
If I sent Tim like, hey, babe, here's some new lingerie that I bought. And he just replied back with thumbs up. I'd be like, what the hell's wrong with you? I would give you a phone call.

**Rafe** (3:34)
Yeah.

**Rizz** (3:34)
Oh no. If I sent that, I'd be like, yeah, hell yeah. Thumbs up.

**Rafe** (3:37)
No.

**Lern** (3:39)
Actually, I'm going to look back. Like, what are the things?
