About
The Pinched Fingers emoji (🤌) is pure Italian energy condensed into a hand gesture—the perfect way to say "what exactly are you talking about?" or "chef's kiss perfection." It's the emoji equivalent of that exasperated-yet-expressive hand motion that can mean everything from "this is magnificent" to "you've got to be kidding me," depending on your mood and the conversation.
