Fix the discord cheese emoji


Fix the discord cheese emoji
The Issue
The cheese emoji in Discord was recently updated to rest upright; the triangular/cone-shaped side of the cheese faces up, and the two rectangular sides face outwards. This cheese has no conversational meaning and conveys no emotion, thought, or concept other than simply "cheese". However, the cheese slice used to rest on one of its rectangular sides, forming an inclined plane. See http://unicode.org/Public/emoji/3.0/emoji-data.txt for a visual. To us, this portrayal of the cheese communicates a much deeper message, so deep that it cannot be described with words; only such a cheese can appropriately convey this message. This recent update to the cheese emoji in Discord is purely negative; there are no positive outcomes of demeaning the cheese emoji. We kindly ask that Discord revert the cheese emoji to its old form.
