With winter being as cold as it is this year is there any way we can get a brrr emoticon? There have been quite a few of us lately wishing we had one.

Wonderful idea!


Maybe a little head with a scarf that shivers, teeth chattering, or something similar.

There's currently one for enjoys or suffers cold winters - the snowflake one. It was -21F (-29.5) here last night, currently -2F (-19C) with a winter storm watch.

That's cold, Sue!

The "enjoys or suffers cold winters" is a microbadge. We're referring to the emoticons/emojis. Such as, , , , , etc.

Yes, a badge, this thread is asking about a new emoticon.

And I need to read to the end first before commenting!

I don't know what I was thinking there My brain must have been sufferng from the cold But if suffering with a cold winter why not get the microbadge anyway? Or the same icon could be used for both maybe?

I don't think that cute little snowflake is going to convey the "suffering"

Can anything as small as an emoji adequately convey the suffering? The only inhabitant of this house who wants to go outside today is the puppy.

My half feral cat doesn't even want to be outside but she won't come in either.

We have a very soft snowfall going on. Nothing that will cause any havoc (or even accumulate), just pretty. I filled all the bird feeders and am enjoying the flitting around. Sorry for you folks being buried!

I was trying to think what would make a good emoji... a blue face with an icicle hanging off the nose?

Oh, too funny -- after I typed that sentence I googled and found these:

I like the top two best

Amanda found this gif, which I think is a fairly accurate depiction of how most everyone feels today.

Love those little icicle people-emoji's! I must admit though, I can't relate ... it's still in the 80's here so I'll continue to use the little sunshiny smile.

Lin, during our trip to Florida (lovely...) we referred to the locals as 'walnuts' -- older, wrinkled, brown people. No offense intended.

The "northern paleface" look is definitely a contrast to the locals in the winter; well, until we unwisely spend too much time in the nice warm sunshine and take on the "lobster look."

If ya'll get a COLD emoji then it's only fair to have a HOT sweaty one too

I could definitely use the hot and sweaty one from March to October. Lol
