Where it comes from
The mouth ﹃ is a vertical-writing bracket from CJK punctuation; its hook looks like drool running from the corner of the mouth. ￣ are full-width overlines used as sleepy, flat eyes.
When to use it
Use it when someone posts tasty food, when you are hungry, or when you want a new gadget or outfit badly. It can also mean dozing off, so context matters.
Examples
- That pizza photo is unfair (￣﹃￣)
- Payday can't come soon enough, I want those shoes (￣﹃￣)
