Those little "smiley" face emojis come on my Android phone keypad. I access them like I would switching from the alpha keypad to the numbers keypad...except it's a symbol keypad. There must be a few hundred of them....everything from faces to unicorns to buildings to cake slices...and the number seems to grow with each Android system update. They have an underlying code number like below, treated like html, I guess. You click on the smiley face and the keyboard automatically inserts the code...which then displays as a symbol in the final posted comment. (In the samples below, remove the "space" between the ampersand (&) and the pound symbol (#). I had to put the space in to show you the code, otherwise it would come up as a face or symbol. There are 2 spaces in the double codes.):

There's probably a list of these things on the internet. It would be grueling to put these in as code. Much easier since it's already on my phone keypad and I can tap the symbol I want to insert.
