Which characters make funny kaomoji work?
Most funny kaomoji borrow characters from other writing systems and symbol blocks. Knowing them helps when a face breaks: if one character is missing from a font, only that part turns into a box.

Do funny kaomoji work on iPhone, Android and Discord?
We have not published a per-device test table for these faces yet, so we do not claim how each one renders on iPhone, Android, Windows or Discord. Faces made only of common symbols such as ω ▽ ∀ ͜ʖ usually display on current phones; faces that add a emoji show that emoji in your device's own style. Copy a face and paste it where you plan to use it to check.

FAQ
What is the funniest kaomoji?
The table flip (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ and the Lenny face ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) are the most widely recognized funny kaomoji. Variants like the calm flip (￣▽￣)ノ┻━┻ on this page add a twist.
What is a funny Lenny face?
A funny Lenny face keeps the ͜ʖ mouth but swaps the eyes, for example ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) winking or ( ͡$ ͜ʖ ͡$) with money eyes.
Why do some funny kaomoji break on Discord?
Discord treats * and _ as formatting, so faces with those characters can lose parts. Put the kaomoji inside `backticks` to keep it intact.
