Do you use emoticons? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


I like this shrug emoji ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ even though I haven't seen it used in several years.  The shrug emoji is used to convey a sense of indifference, uncertainty, or a lack of knowledge about a particular topic.  It is typically interpreted as a gesture of raising one's shoulders in a nonchalant or "I don't know" manner.  Some creative person made it out of French fries on that plate in the top photo.
