The 38 New Emoji's Set For Next Year Will Finally Include BACON!!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

The peeps over at the Unicode Consortium must have one of the best, most powerful jobs in the world - deciding which emoji's we can have on our smartphones. And we had no idea it all got taken quite so seriously!

They've just released a report - a full on REPORT - outlining their proposed new emoji's for next year, along with all the reasons why we need them. And we really do need them.

The gender gap seems to play a big part, with a dancing man, a prince and a Mother Christmas recommended to make sure things are aaaall equal, and red dancing lady looks like she's been getting biz-aaaay as she comes back at us with huge baby bump.

THE BIG EMOJI DEBATE GOES ON: IS IT A HIGH FIVE OR A PRAYER?? 

The 'call me' and the crossed fingers are going to become our new fave hand gestures fo sho, and we're finally going to be able to portray our feelings of pure annoyance with the palm-to-forhead girl. It's a dream come true!

But it's really the bacon and avocado emoji's that are going to change our lives. Seriously, should we send Unicode a gift? A basket of bacon muffins?! 

This is what the report says: ''The subcomittee recommends the following set of 38 characters for encoding in version 9.0 of the Unicode Standard. These symbols are considered for incorporation into Unicode for reasons such as compatibility usage, popular requests from online communities, and filling the gaps in the existing set of Unicode emoji."

See. SERIOUS business.

THE EMOJI DICTIONARY: WHAT YOUR EMOJI'S REALLY MEAN IN TEXTS

This is what some of those emoji's might look like:

The Full List: Face with cowboy hat, Clown face, Nauseated face, ROFL, Drooling face, Lying face, 'Call me' hand, Selfie, Raised back of hand, Left-facing fist, Right-facing fist, Handshake, Crossed fingers, Pregnant woman, Face palm, Shrug, Man dancing, Prince, Man in tuxedo, Mother Christmas, Wilted flower, Scooter, Motor scooter, Octagonal sign, Clinking glasses, Black heart, Croissant, Avocado, Cucumber, Bacon, Potato, Carrot, Fox, Eagle, Duck, Bat aaaand a Shark!!
