How to read a side eye

In (¬_¬) the eyes are the "not sign" from logic, where ¬A means "not A". Its short tail points down, so both eyes seem to glance to the side. The flat line for a mouth says the person is not amused.

The parts of (¬_¬)

¬U+00ACNot sign. An eye looking sideways.

_U+005FLow line. A flat mouth.

The monocle face ಠ_ರೃ

Both eyes are letters from the Kannada script, used to write the Kannada language in southern India. ಠ is the same letter that makes the famous look of disapproval ಠ_ಠ. The right eye is ರ, the letter "ra", with a vowel sign that hangs below it like the chain of a monocle.

ಠU+0CA0Kannada letter TTHA. The left eye.

ರU+0CB0Kannada letter RA. The eye with the monocle.

ೃU+0CC3Kannada vowel sign vocalic R. The chain.

Frequently asked questions

What does (¬_¬) mean?

It is a side eye. It means you doubt what someone said, or you are not impressed. It can be playful or annoyed, depending on the chat.

How do I make a confused face with symbols?

Use two different eyes, like (o_O) or ⁀⊙﹏☉⁀. Eyes that don't match look confused. Add a wavy mouth like ﹏ for extra worry.

Is there a text face for "I'm done"?

Yes. X‿X and (✖╭╮✖) have crossed out eyes, which means "this is too much" or "I give up". Pick one from "I'm done" in the tool above.

What does ｷﾀ━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━! mean?

ｷﾀ is "kita", Japanese for "it's here!" or "it came!". The long lines are a shout. People post it when something they waited for finally happens.
