I couldn’t see the emoji on my Mac running Firefox, but to my surprise, they show up fine on my Android phone! The very first three in the body of the OP all look like the Android robot with different facial expressions!

What version of OS X are you using? 10,8 seems to be emoji-capable out of the box.

Emoki on Android devices display like dingbats. On OS X and IOS devices, they’re in full color.

For me, this is the only one that doesn’t appear to be working. I get reversed diamonds with a question mark inside. In fact, I’d thought he was being funny, and intentionally using that symbol to screw with us.
