Logan: My guess is a form of pettiness? Or humor? Sarcasm works in many ways- as an insult if one is feeling particularly spiteful or as a joke if the communicants can understand one another in that manner

Logan: Possibly? Personally, if I were to ask someone what they'd want from me and they'd respond with a single eggplant icon, I'd think they want the plant. If they had something else in mind, they could...

Logan: Just say so?

Logan: Digital communication is strange, isn't it?

Eden: I feel like such a child, everyone having to explain everything to me. I'm sorry for that, but thank you. I think that's mean. Being spiteful, or trying to find humor in being mean.

Eden: I agree!!! I don't understand why everyone here seems to be so up in arms about sex. In the commune, where I grew up, if we wanted to have sex, we just had sex. We just fucked each other and that was it.

Eden: There are too many games now. And yeah, digital does more harm than good.

Lauren: Hello. Is this some kind of a trick question?

Eden: No, it's seriously not. I heard people talking about it and I have no clue what it is.

Logan: I'm not very well-versed in emojis myself, but I'm certain that yes, context matters. Some people may send smiling faces but in a sarcastic manner

Logan: What are eggplants supposed to mean? They seem like one of the more useless emojis offered

Logan: Unless they're for a grocery list or something of the sort

Eden: Then why would they send smiling faces? I don't understand sarcasm. Why wouldn't you just say what you were thinking?

Eden: Sizes of eggplants or something? If each emoji symbolizes something, then the contextual clue would indicate it was phallic, but then again... many things in today's world are phallic.

Eden: That's what I would do.

Tyler: You were raised in a commune? That sounds wild. I'd love to have that kind of freedom.

Tyler: Right you are, every hole is a goal.

Tyler: I find I have even more drive when someone is watching. The pressure to perform.

Eden: Yes! It was the BEST. Everyone grew their own food, raised everyone else's kids, and it was just a whole mess of freedom and love all the time.

Eden: Every hole is a goal! I laughed. Some people don't like all of their holes filled, but I think it's fun.

Eden: It's pressure to you? That's funny. You don't seem like the type to be pressured by anything.

Tyler: Who the fuck wants sex in private?!

Tyler: I want an audience. I want people standing around wishing they were me or with me.

Tyler: What can I say. I like showing off.

Eden: In the commune, people just did it whenever they wanted to. Wherever they wanted to.

Eden: I just think that's how things should be, you know?

Eden: Sex is to be shared. And joined in.

Tyler: Fucked if I know.

Tyler: I've never been the type to hold back. Would rather fuck than worry about relationships anyhow.

Tyler: Preferably as many people as possible ... at the same time.

Eden: You are the first person here to say that!!!

Eden: People are so private about sex, but that's not what sex is supposed to be, right?

Logan: Good afternoon. My understanding is that "emojis" are small images/icons typically used in digital chats. Allow me to demonstrate:

[five minutes of searching later]

Logan: [sunglasses emoji]

Logan: What class is this kind of question for?

Eden: OH. Okay. That makes a lot of sense.

Eden: But different emojis mean different things based on context?

Eden: It's not for a class. I was outside and heard some people talking about getting emojis. Eggplants? I can guess based on contextual clues, I guess.
