Emoticons

Emoticons are what predated #Emoji in a lot of chatrooms, messages, emails, and texts years ago. Also many come from Japan like #orz (a stick figure kneeling down.)

They can be used to save text space as #Emoji often will take data/text amount to send, used where you can't send Emoji, and they can also be more complicated, too.

#Kaomoji (Japanese Emoticons) and ASCII (pictures from text and symbols) fall into emoticons sometimes yet it has now today evolved into their own thing, too.

Jim: what do you want for dinner :D ?
Emmy: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Jim: D: Cant decide again??

Emoticon

Emotion Icon
Given the fact that sarcasm, joking, kidding, and light humor can be taken SOOOO the wrong way via internet, IMing, email, and text, people use emoticons to show facial expressions and add dynamic to the conversation.

Emoticon:

I'm judging you SO hard right now ;-P (joking)

Ya, you should totally date him >.> (sarcasm)
