About
The Skull emoji (💀) is Gen Z's dramatic flair for when something is so funny, embarrassing, or shocking that you've metaphorically died. It's the digital equivalent of clutching your pearls and gasping 'I'm deceased!'—whether you're laughing at a meme that hits too close to home or witnessing someone's spectacular social media fail.
