U+1F4B9. Really? Though I suppose after U+1F4A9, anything is possible.—@ndw
@ndw A graph with a yen symbol? Looks innocuous to me, if useless.—@larsga
@larsga Oh, it’s innocuous enough, but oddly specific. Where’s the one with the dollar or the pound? Or the downward trend line?—@ndw

@ndw Awaiting deplotment of U+1F4AB on technical mailing lists—@svgeesus
