Thumbs up is such a common emoji but almost nobody gives IRL thumbs up anymore.

I fully expect what the first reply to this might be.

I love using thumbs up ironically. Like is someone trying to ask for an explanation to why i don't sit down to shit? 👍
That's not an example of irony though?
*I love using thumbs up in a way that invokes absurdist situational irony by laying out an absurd situation that the other person expects an explanation for, but instead receives a friendly affirmation in the form of the thumbs up emoji, which exemplifies situational irony by subverting the other person's expectations of what the situation is actually about.
Still not irony, are you American by any chance?
?? I don't really understand what your goal is here
Americans tend to have poor understandings of what constitutes irony.
