The 2012 movie, “The Lorax,” may not have gained a mass amount of commercial success amongst critics and film reviewers, but the film had managed to gain a massive cult following. 

The movie is packed with vibrant colors, melodic music, crucial lessons, intriguing characters, and much more. The movie also revolves around an invention created by the iconic character, “The Once-ler,” titled the “Thneed.”

The Thneed is essentially a fabric created from the feathers of Truffala Trees, which is then sewn and manufactured into an article of wool that can be used for a variety of activities and entertainment. As a matter of fact, one song from the movie named, “Everybody Needs a Thneed,” explains the things that can be done with the invention. These range from a super trendy hat, a tightrope for an acrobat, a net for catching butterflies, and daily use for exercise. 

Depsite all the useful things a thneed provides, there is no emoji for it. Considering a thneed can be used in an overwhelming amount of aspects of our daily lives, shouldn’t we be provided with an emoticon for the invention?
