Squinting face with tongue Emoji

Smileys

A yellow face with tightly squeezed, X-shaped eyes and a wide, open mouth with a tongue sticking out. It conveys a sense of high-energy silliness, wild excitement, or being overwhelmed by a funny situation.

Usage Context

Use this when you are goofing around, pulling a prank, or reacting to something so absurd you can't help but make a silly face. It is significantly more intense than the standard 😛 or the goofy 😜, as the squinting eyes imply you are laughing so hard you have lost control of your facial expressions.

History

This emoji was added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of the initial wave of standardized emoticons. Its design is based on classic internet text-based faces like ':-P' or 'x-P', which evolved in early 90s chat rooms and message boards to indicate playfulness or teasing.
