We already had the taco, but Canadians will greatly appreciate the beaver. You already have the eggplant and it’s rather on point, the way it is rendered.

I recognize the knot (a double carrick bend) but I’m not sure where I would use it.

or Samsung’s, which is just a couple of loops of rope laid over each other, not a knot at all.

Maybe for joining two emojis to make a combination emoji?
