Thumbs Up

1) A sign of approval.
2) Also a insult equal to the middle finger in some cultures (namely the middle eastern ones, where you saw pics of iraqi children giving the thumbs up to american soilders)

1) "Good Job!" *Thumbs Up*

2) "Damn American!" *Thumbs Up*

thumbs up

An action with the hands that used to be used solely an expression of agreement or acceptance, but when used as an emoji on social media can now also mean "I'm pleased for you, but don't want to carry on the conversation" - a polite version of "whatever" - a way of saying 'whatever' but pretending that you liked what they said.

A:"did you see my photo of the grand canyon. What an amazing place! You should visit it sometime"

blue thumbs up

A sticker in messenger used to indicate, "I have stopped talking. You should also stop talking."
Although it also can imply that you like something, so it's still polite.

You: *Blue thumbs up*
Friend: Great! See you there!
