WTF?! This Is The Real Meaning Of The Poop Emoji And We’re In Shock!

The poop emoji is always in our recently used, probably because we use it for pretty much everything, from telling our besties that our day was poo to summing up our thoughts on Kanye West’s latest tweet.

But here’s the thing: we’ve been using it all wrong. Yep, if you thought that little turd shaped emoji was, y’know, a big old pile of poo, then sorry friend, you’re wrong, because it is in fact an ice cream.

Yuh-huh, we were surprised too and now that we’ve seen it we can’t unsee it.

LA-based editor Peter Miller was the first to make the discovery. “I was photoshopping the poo onto the cone, for an annoying text to my girlfriend ,” he tells the Huffington Post.

All we can say is THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.
