Remember XD? It was an emoticon used predominately in the early 00s in online chat in North America to represent excitement or happiness. It died out as cultural language changed and evolved but in Poland, it still lives on and is used like it never went out of fashion anywhere.
Nick Robinson travelled to Poland to find out why that was and it’s a fascinating look into how language is perceived and meaning can change with the touch of a button or switching from lower to upper case (and vice versa). I kinda wanna bring it back but I think I also only want to use my cringe powers for good and my quota is already full from being a dad. Ah well! xD
