My identify is Henry and I am an emoji activist.

4 years in the past, I ended studying and writing totally.

Henry believes that humanity is trapped

in what students have referred to as the tyranny of that means

and that emoji primarily based language may be a way

for us to flee these shackles.

He’ll attain out to my college students

pretending to be a free personal tutor

after which attempt to sabotage the whole lot that we’ve labored on.

I like international locations which have low literacy charges.

Books with phrases have turn out to be completely ineffective.

the good works of the previous into emoji.

With my emoji-rations,

you possibly can learn the classics in only a few seconds

and it hits simply as laborious.

Battle and Peace.

Kevin informed me you took him out of faculty as we speak, once more.

Yeah, I needed to. Henry.

I had no alternative. They’re poisoning him there.

When Henry first turned an emoji fanatic,

I wasn’t thrilled.

What are you doing with a e-book? No extra books.

Emojis, okay.

Perhaps at some point the world will all be emojis

however proper now our son is falling behind.

No, no, no, it is the world that is falling behind,

the world. I can not do that anymore,

Henry, I can not do that anymore.

No, no, cease it, Henry, No.

I’ll admit as troublesome as this challenge has been for us,

the coy monkey emoji has saved our marriage many instances.

No.

Phrases, they fall brief

[Gabriel] You see that is the hazard of emojis proper there.

They appear cute and enjoyable on the floor

however they insidiously modify our conduct over time

till you end up all of a sudden simply turning right into a monster

like Henry.
