What does this have to do with "I have no mouth and i must scream"?
I can't remember any "pre-crime" in it. Just an AI torturing people for his amusement.
You can't just use any random emoji you want, that doesn't make any sense.

Fair enough. I don't believe it is a very popular story so that might be the reason.
Why is there even an Emoji for the book? Does it come up that often on hexchat?
Odd, but alright then. Maybe it makes more sense the the "emoji" renders properly.
Have you read the story? If not, do it. It's pretty great and only around 40 min long.
Harlan Ellison made an audiobook version I listened to, while also reading it at the same time: https://youtu.be/dgo-As552hY
You can also borrow the book for free here: https://archive.org/details/ihavenomouthimus0000harl
Or just get it for free in many other places.
Edit: oh and what is stormfront? Edit 2: the "I have no mouth..." game is also pretty great and was given away for free on GOG a while back so you might already have it, if you keep track of those things. That game is inspired by the book but it is mainly it's own story.
Thanks for explaining and reminding me of the book. I should re-read it.

You: [policing emoji use]
Me:
noooo I can't use whatever I want!!It's just weird to use "emojis" like that. Maybe it makes sense on hexchat but not so much elsewhere.
