The Speaking Head Emoji (🗣️), officially known as the 'Speaking Head' in the Unicode Standard, has evolved from a simple communication icon into a viral meme symbol for 'yapping' or shouting passionate opinions. While it was added to emoji sets in 2014, its peak meme status arrived with social media trends where users pair the emoji with walls of text or niche lore to represent someone who won't stop talking. It captures the energy of a loud announcement, an unsolicited lecture, or a 'hot take' that nobody asked for, making it the go-to graphic for irony-poisoned internet humor and enthusiastic storytelling.
