Face with steam from nose Emoji

Smileys

A yellow face with closed eyes, arched eyebrows, and two puffs of white steam shooting out of the nostrils. The expression conveys intense determination, frustration, or a sense of being worked up.

Usage Context

This face is most frequently used to express a 'triumph' or a 'boss' moment after overcoming a challenge, but it is equally common when someone is blowing off steam during an argument. It acts as a visual shorthand for being fed up or feeling ready to fight, often appearing alongside 😡 or 🔥 to dial up the intensity.

History

Initially added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of Unicode 6.0, the design was inspired by the 'snorting' gesture often used in anime and manga to represent extreme anger or sudden bursts of motivation. It gained massive popularity on early social media platforms as a way to signal that a user was 'over it' or feeling particularly assertive.
