What the frog emoji means
🐸 (frog) is a frog, a sarcasm device and a meme reference. 🐸☕ — the frog and the cup — is “but that’s none of my business”, the Kermit-sipping-tea meme for a pointed observation. The frog is also linked to Pepe, an internet character with a complicated history, so in some communities it carries that association; in most chats it is simply cute, green and a little smug.
