Summary | The Daily Mail released a list of emojis with double meanings. Some seemingly innocent emojis might in fact have another X-rated meaning. For instance, the mailbox emoji can mean "sex". You can use any emoji to talk about sex, but some are being used more than others. For example, the eggplant emoji is now widely accepted as a way to represent a penis. Most emojis can have a double meaning; they can be interpreted at face value or mean something completely different.

Summary | A woman waits for her current love interest to text back. The night before she had sent him a text with sexual innuendo and he hadn't texted back until morning. Now she is obsessing over checking her phone constantly to see if he texted back. She starts over-interpreting how he may have misunderstood or what might have tipped him off. She concludes that, ultimately, it would be better if they figured out this early that they are no good match. Finally, he texts her back.
