Original context: https://xkcd.com/1813/ (explain xkcd)

Alt text: My favorite might be U+1F609 U+1F93F WINKING FACE VOMITING.

Google emojikitchen.dev versions:

Vomiting cowboy

Statue of Liberty: U+1F5FD is not available in EmojiKitchen.

Vomiting dove

Vomiting moon

Vomiting rocket ship

Vomiting hand: U+270B is not available in EmojiKitchen.

Vomiting winking face

Bummed about the lack of vomiting statue of liberty. I feel like I'd get some solid use of that in these times.

The spider is also having a great time.

Of all the vomiting emoji in this thread, for whatever reason, this is the one that most reminds me of Adventure Time.

Finally, we have "thanks, I hate it" as an emoji.

I love the antigravity vomit coming out of the bottom half of the mouth.

For a time these would pop up as suggestions on my google keyboard by typing two emojis, but it eventually dissapeared :/

Anyway,

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Apparently it depends on the app or input field. The generated emoji is an image, not a unicode string, so the input must be able to accept inline images.

You can send them to yourself in Signal, for example, then download the image and post it here.

Is this organic puke or has it been processed?

I'll be the sacrificial dumb guy here. Are the posts here just copy/paste, or is there a way to force some emojis together? Secondary question, how do I just type in a Unicode value into my phone keyboard to get an emoji?

[–] Smokeydope@lemmy.world 18 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Question one: yes and no. Most of the vomiting emojis shared here in comments are fake made using googles emoji kitchen thing. But there are many real modifiers for emojis like skin color or adding accents like tildes to regular english alphabet characters.

Question two: Modern keyboards typically have most emojis built in for you to select through. I dont think typing in the unicode values will automatically convert on phone operating systems but this might help if using windows or programming into a website.

the XKCD explained article on this actually gave some really great info.

[–] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

It's not ai generated... yet. Right now these are made and approved by google. That's why you don't see the eggplant, peach or gun.

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

No eggplant, but there are substitutes

I will completely forget to come back and check this, but if you get an answer, would you mind hollering at me and letting me know?

[–] ClanOfTheOcho@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Ok. It took some research, but I think I have it worked out. You have to either be using the gboard keyboard or go to the emoji kitchen website. From the website, you can just combine, copy, and paste. From Gboard, you need to select the smiley face next to the space bar OR click the 4 squares and then go into "emoji." From there, you can select 2 emojis (assuming they are compatible) to create a new emoji, or select 1 and choose one of the recommendations. I can't get it to work from my phone in the Voyager app, but I also can't guarantee that's Voyager's problem vs. mine. It does work on my texting app, however, so I know it works. For further reference.

This reminds me of those games where you start off with water, wind, earth and fire and combine them to make new elements, which you then combine to make new elements, etc.

I wonder how the code works on emojikitchen.

I am extremely disappointed by the combination of 👄 and 🤮 just being the 🤮 with a small 👄 on the forehead.

[–] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yeah a lot of them really make you think they phoned it in.

Like this one really should've been a phone handset puking out of the speaker.

Been a thing for a while, used the vomiting moon a lot already.

Always remember that the vomiting emoji looks like it's sucking Shrek's green dong
