    Why use that image of edgeworth to make your point? That’s edgeworth standing on the right side of the courtroom, where he’s always wrong.

    The whole point of the ace attorney games is if you are on the left, you are good and correct. If you are on the right, you are evil and wrong. And if you are in the center, you are either a hopelessly confused idiot, or evil.

      type :shrug to look up emojis

      took the one of the argumentative lawyerman

      That’s… a bit of a stretch to consider that using a shrugging emoji of an antagonist in a video game means my argument is inherently wrong?

      I think the sidebar in the emoji comm is helpful to remember. It says “emojis are what they convey”, so expecting everyone to know the direct reference to the video game (and by extension all other 2400 emojis) is a little much. You can use it that way or as a lil guy shrugging.
