Most sick part of this news that this is an article on a so called ‘Yeshiva’ news
Perfect, that’s how I feel after the first days of Y”T after all that matzah. Gotta burn off fo my “food baby”.
YWN IS GETTING SICKER! Why would you post this garbage on a so called “frum” “Yeshiva” website? You either change your name or post only erliche news.
תועבה as per this coming week’s פרשה
Would Frumma have even known about this emoji without the headlined article?
Its not a pregnant man but a man after pesach
Was so important to let us know..NOT! and even show us the emojis…I mean thats why we look at ywn..get it?
It’s just the way the cookie 🍪 crumbles
there’s no need to post such news
I would of never known about this otherwise:(
shame on Yeshiva word
Blaming YWN for the news is like blaming a mother for her babies gender. They just deliver the news, they dont create it. They are in the business of selling advertisements, the articles are just the bait. And of course we didnt know this before, why else do we read the news? If it really bothers you, and it should, stop using emojis or sign a petition to drop that one. No company is immune to social pressure. Besides many emojis took on alternative meanings, so if you want to use it to hurt a mans feelings for enjoying his yuntif food, go ahead. Or use it to express what a crazy upside down world we live it. Wasting time on these articles instead of learning Torah…
This is old news. This emoji has been around for a while now.
