What does the WHAT emoji mean?

A classic expression of pure, unadulterated cringe and disgust.

This emoji features a yellow face contorted in a grimace of extreme discomfort or revulsion. It is a staple in Discord servers for reacting to bad takes, questionable links, or awkward situations where words simply aren't enough to convey the level of 'eww'.

When to use it

  • Reacting to someone sharing a cursed image
  • Expressing disgust at a terrible food opinion
  • Showing discomfort during an awkward conversation
  • Responding to a cringe-worthy joke in chat
