    As an old school internet user, I like my emoji and emoticons being separate. My emoticons are special to me and hold specific meaning that default emoji don't convey. I feel like I'm being forced to use Newspeak when my intended, and inoffensive, text is translated to website-approved images.
    Also some common words themselves just turn into emoji due to this feature.
    Earlier in chat someone liked the song that was playing, and so meant to say "This song is a BOP!", but ended up sending "This song is a [mallet emoji]." =\
