Wait, so skull and bones emojis are the same as laughing? How would anyone assosiate a skull and bones with comedy?

I assosiate them with pirates.

That's so funny. It killed me.

I'm literally dead

Like how people say 'im dead' when something is funny

Really, how can they say "I'm dead" when they're clearly not dead?

I guess they don't mind being sent to eternal damnation in hell (lying is a sin)

How can they say "lol" when they are clearly not laughing out loud?

What's next, reacting with šŸ‘ is actually totally fine and positive?

These emojis are large.

Lmao. This line got me by the bubu more than the screengrab did.

Skull and bones emoticons are associated with laughter now? Huh? O.o

It reads to me like they're very embarrassed for their friend upon finding out they work at that company, a bit like I'd feel bad for a friend that has to work for Jeff Bezos or McDonalds or such.

Yeah, dying of laughter -> I'm dead -> šŸ’€

I learned this one because people generally write "I'm dead" along with the emoji. Or at least they used to.

Oh come now. Everyone needs money somehow. This is one of the more honest ways to get it.

Its a besties thing, I could easily be on either side of this convo with mine LMAO

It's nice of you to add alt text for the image in the description but isn't there an ActivityPub standard for that? Mastodon has, would be nice if Lemmy had it too.

I use the native one if I don't need line breaks to reasonably explain everything.

Do these posts really need the alt text?

To that level of detail, probably not. But the alt text isn't for me, and I appreciate the time and effort op took to put in it to be considerate of those who do need it.

To further clarify, the alt text can be read by text to speech, the image cannot. That is why the alt text is useful - at least this is my understanding.
