About
The NG BUTTON emoji (π) is the digital equivalent of a buzzer on a game showβthat harsh "NOPE" when something just isn't cutting it. It's borrowed from Japanese TV and gaming culture, where "NG" stands for "No Good," and now it's the perfect way to deliver a firm but oddly polite rejection to whatever nonsense just crossed your screen.

The "NG" comes from Japanese television and film production, where it means "No Good" - essentially marking a take that needs to be redone, making this emoji a little piece of behind-the-scenes media culture.
One emoji wins every day. Will this one best tell the story of 12/29/25? Get rewarded for guessing right.
