What does the skull emoji mean?

The ultimate reaction for when you are literally dying of laughter or embarrassment.

The skull emoji has become a staple of internet slang, primarily used to signify that something is so funny it has killed the user. It is the modern successor to 'LOL' or 'LMAO' among Gen Z and younger internet users. In Discord and Slack, it is frequently spammed in response to absurd memes, epic fails, or cringe-worthy moments.

When to use it

  • Reacting to an incredibly hilarious meme post
  • Expressing disbelief at a truly cringe moment
  • Signifying that you are laughing extremely hard
  • Responding to a massive fail in chat
