100 on Twitter

Hundred Points on Twitter Twemoji 12.2

I have seen this several times on Twitter.

It took me a bit to figure out what it meant.  According to the emojipedia (won't lie, kind of excited that I found this site), it is a nod to getting 100% on your paper in class.  It means "keep it real" or to show that you have a lot of pride in an idea-that you like it 100%.

Cool.

Face Blowing a Kiss on Samsung One UI 1.5Revolving Hearts on Samsung One UI 1.5
This is an emoji I use a lot.  I like to think of it as sending  love to whomever I am talking to.  They are called "Face Blowing a Kiss" and "Revolving Hearts" and were originally meant to say good night and ???    I think they work for my intended purpose.

Man Dancing on Samsung One UI 1.5
This is my husband's favorite emoji to send.  It is called "Man dancing" and it means man dancing.  When he sends it, he sends it because he is excited about whatever is going on.  Like when he wins tickets to a concert (that's his hobby-he tries to win radio contests.  He's been pretty successful lately).  If you were to see him in person, he really does dance when he is happy.

This is what Olivia usually sends to me.  It is "Rolling on the floor laughing".  It means, hysterical laughter and  can be amped up with

"Face with joy" show something is funny or pleasing.  According to the emojipedia, "Face with joy" is "One of the ten most popular emojis between 2014–2018 and was named the Oxford Dictionaries 2015 Word of the Year."
I am really not that funny, I imagine that Liv uses it sarcastically quite a bit.

Thumbs Up on Samsung One UI 1.5
"Thumbs up" is the one I get the most from Luke (my son).  It means approval.  He rarely uses emojis so this often comes at the end of a longer conversation as in, "Got it Mom".

The Emojipedia is really quite interesting.  Hundred Points on Samsung One UI 1.5
It names the emojis, gives some history on them and then shows how several different OS's show the emoji.

EAT..not food...

I also love Twitter.   One of the teachers that I follow on Twitter is Mr. Victor. Mr. Victor likes to Tweet with the hashtag EAT Jimmy Victor @jimmyvic3 · Oct 9 less than 40 days until tryouts!!! B-ball season is right around the corner, I can’t wait! Get ready for some Jags basketball this winter. Meeting next Tuesday in LGI to discuss workouts and conditioning leading up to tryouts #GoJags #EAT I tried several different Google searches and a call to Liv, before we decided to look up "EAT acronym". We knew from our searches on Twitter that it was related to sports. Effort Attitude Toughness These are things we can all control. As an athlete, and a human, the EAT philosophy leads to success. "Every single successful person I know does everything with great effort, a positive attitude, and mental & physical toughness." Jeff Hamhauser-youth football coach http://www.jeffehemhau...

Hiiiiyeeee!

I didn't post Friday because I was watching TV with my daughter.  We were watching our favorite show-RuPaul's Drag Race. An interesting trend right now is that phrases from drag culture (which are also from African American culture-particularly women) are popping up on Twitter and are now mainstream.  In fact, I have heard students saying these phrases up and down the halls and I have to giggle to myself because I doubt many of them know what they are saying.  So here are few favorites and what they mean (just so you know). YAS! - This word was created as an exclamation to yell at drag queens while they were performing as a sign of support and encouragement. Spill the T/Tea-S lang for the word truth or gossip. Used in a sentence: "Girl, I'm about to spill the tea on everything that happened last night." Gagging-  Used when something is so fierce, you can’t help but want to gag from the overload of extreme fierceosity. Sickening- Amazing, ...

Half an hour later...

I keep hearing about Tik Tok and how it's the newer, better Vine.  So, I check it out.  Half an hour later, here's what I learned. 1. It is quite entertaining. 2. I am not that creative.  The first person to create an idea is wicked clever.  And I so admire all the peeps who take their own spin on it.  Super fun. And then I did about 15 more minutes of "research" and here's the thing-if I wasn't a grown person, I would spend so much time with this. And so that I don't because I really need to read your blogs, I'll end with Tik Tok is pretty cool.
