sisyphus
What does the sisyphus emoji mean?
The eternal struggle of Monday mornings captured in one tiny icon.
Based on the Greek myth of Sisyphus, who was condemned to roll a boulder up a hill for eternity, this emoji perfectly encapsulates the feeling of repetitive, futile labor. It is a staple in Discord servers for expressing burnout, tedious work, or the feeling that your efforts are constantly being reset.
