It's been a big year for avocados. So it's no surprise that the avocado emoji on Unicode 9 is basically groundbreaking news. Sure, there are important things going on in the world today, but nothing as fulfilling and long-awaited as the introduction of the avocado emoji. I mean, what have we even been doing all of this time without it? We've been exerting endless energy on typing out the word, suffering thumb cramps, and wasting time talking about it when we could be eating it.

Think about it. Avocado is like a universal favorite for every human. We eat it on our toast. We put it on our faces. We wear pictures of it on our t-shirts. We're all in love with avocados. And yet, up until now, they were completely left out of the emoji game. Thankfully, the Unicode gods listened to the song of our hearts and added them in our wordless lexicon — starting June 21.

And while you might be reading this and thinking, "Wow, is this seriously an article solely dedicated to the avocado emoji? Do people actually care?" I'll be the first to tell you that yes, they do care. People care a whole lot about the friendly vegetable that's actually technically a fruit. Look me in the eye and tell me this doesn't speak to you:

Are you weeping at its eternal majesty yet? Because the rest of the internet sure is:

It's What The People Want!

Finally, they have heard the wishes of the masses and given us what we want!

I mean honestly, it's on everyone's mind, isn't it?

All she needs to be queen is this emoji guys!!!

Living For It!

I mean, honestly, whatever gets you out of bed in the morning.

Avo-Sext

I wish the people I dated sent me avocados instead of eggplants. Y'know what I mean?

Well, what are you? A humanist, or an avocadoist? No one's judging. (Everyone's judging.)

The Cure-All

What Else Is There?

If you find out, let me know. We're all waiting to hear.

The Power Of Prayer

Some people don't believe in prayer. But after reading this tweet, you won't be able to avoid its clear capabilities. Request for OP: Please pray for cheese puff and orange finger emojis next.

I'll Avocado Toast To That

I think we can all agree this deserves a celebratory cheers ... or toast. PUN INTENDED.

The Rumors Are True

It's really coming you guys. And I hope it changes your life like it has changed everyone on Twitter's life.
