What does the thinking emoji mean?

The ultimate expression for when you've just had a stroke of genius.

This is the iconic 'Roll Safe' meme featuring actor Kayode Ewumi as the character Reece Simpson from the web series Hood Documentary. It is widely used in chat to mockingly suggest a questionable or 'big brain' solution to a problem, implying that someone is being clever in a way that is actually quite foolish.

When to use it

  • Suggesting a hilariously bad life hack idea
  • Mocking someone for a questionable logical conclusion
  • Showing off a sarcastic big brain moment
  • Reacting to a friend's absurdly flawed plan
