Angry kaomoji and the famous table flip
The classic table throw is the one everyone knows. The most famous angry kaomoji isn't really a face at all. It's a scene: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻, someone flipping a table in frustration. The ┻━┻ is built from box-drawing characters, and the ︵ shows the table flying through the air.
The internet soon added the calm reply, ┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ), where someone politely puts the table back. Use the pair for a joke about losing and then regaining your temper.
Other kinds of angry
- The stare: (ಠ_ಠ) and (¬_¬) are flat, unimpressed looks.
- Grumpy: (￣^￣) and (｀ε´) are pouting and annoyed.
- Fired up: (ง •̀_•́)ง is ready to fight, or just very determined.
- Furious: faces with 益 or 皿 show gritted teeth, as in (╬ಠ益ಠ).
Keep it playful
Angry kaomoji work best when the anger is exaggerated and a bit funny: a slow internet connection, a stubborn printer, a game that keeps crashing. In a real disagreement, a face can come across as mocking, so use words instead.
For a softer reaction, try the shrug and reaction faces.
Table flips and their comebacks
The table flip has grown a whole family over the years:
- The classic: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
- Extra furious: (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ and (┛◉Д◉)┛彡┻━┻
- Double flip: ┻━┻ ︵ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ︵ ┻━┻
- Putting it back: ┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ), the calm reply after someone else's flip.
Grumpy, annoyed or furious?
| Level | Try |
|---|---|
| Mildly unimpressed | (¬_¬) · (눈_눈) · (￣^￣) |
| Annoyed | (｀ε´) · (｀へ´) · (-_-メ) |
| Angry | (＃`Д´) · (╬ Ò﹏Ó) · (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) |
| Determined, not angry | (ง •̀_•́)ง · (•̀ᴗ•́)و |
Exaggeration is what makes these faces funny. Save them for things that deserve a dramatic reaction, like a game that crashed right before saving.
Table flip and mad faces
The table flip emote (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ is the most famous angry kaomoji, and it is on this page. For a quieter mad kaomoji, try the clenched-teeth faces instead. If you only mean to tease, the evil kaomoji are a better fit.
