Emoji speak.
Out text conversations have been greatly enriched thanks to the use of emojis although we didn’t bargain for the different ways in which you could use them.
We have only just come to terms with the revelation that we’re using a few of them the wrong way entirely and now there’s another debate surrounding the monkey emoji or emojis, depending on your view.
The question was brought to the attention of the internet by Jonathan Sun, who tweets at @jonny_sun, and now everyone is confused.
In a Twitter poll, Jonathan asked if the monkey emoji is “one monkey making three faces” or “three different monkeys”?
seriouse question!!!

There’s five days to go on the poll and at the time of writing, there are 66,677 votes and 3.6k retweets.
Some say it’s the same, others are referring back to the “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil” theory and basically, no one can agree as the two options are currently neck and neck.
@jonnysun @jarry obviously it’s the same goddamn monkey, why would you bring 3 separate monkeys to a photoshoot?

@jonnysun 3 monkeys also because a left to right chronological view is linguistically problematic

@jonnysun I always assumed it was three monkeys named respectively, “See No Evil,” “Hear No Evil,” and “Speak No Evil”

@jonnysun I’m shocked that it’s not overwhelmingly option 1, as in 1 monkey
