While this one regularly means that you’re about to play a song or a video, this emoji can be used in various ways and this is just one of them. We’d agree that this one is something we use every now and then to get the action going, or the camera rolling, or pretty much anything in between as this one stands for the beginnings and beginnings can be a great thing so make sure you caption that photo you’re posting the next time you enter a relationship, or have a great time with your friends, to let everyone know.
