根据New York Post报道，“点赞”、“爱心”、“OK”和“对钩”等表情符号被国外的Z世代评选为十大“中老年表情包”。
而排名第一的“点赞（thumbs up）”还被Z世代视为咄咄逼人的代表。部分Z世代称，“点赞”表情带有挑衅色彩，在任何聊天中使用这个表情，他们都会感到被冒犯。
Sending a thumbs-up can be seen as passive aggressive and even confrontational, according to Gen Z who claim they feel attacked whenever it is used.
Z世代称，“点赞”可以被视为带有挑衅色彩，甚至是咄咄逼人的表情。他们声称，无论何时使用这个表情，他们都会感到被冒犯。
有网友在网上发表动态称：“No one my age in the office does it, but the Gen X people always do it. Took me a bit to adjust and get [it] out of my head that it means they're mad at me（和我同龄的同事没有人用‘点赞’表情，但X世代经常用。我需要花时间让自己适应，不去想他们发这个表情是在‘阴阳怪气’。）.”
Gen Z
Generation Z，通常是指1995年至2009年出生的一代人。
Gen X
Generation X，通常指1965-1980年出生的一代人。
“X代”或“X代人”一语首创于加拿大作家道格拉斯·库普兰（DouglasCou-pland）所著《X代：加速文化的故事》（1991）（GenerationX：TalesforAcceleratedCulture）一书的书名。所以作者便冠以这代人为“X代人”这一称谓了（X表示“未知数”）“Y代人”为“X代人”的子女，按“X一Y—Z”字母顺序，故三代人被称为Gen X Y Z。
Others agreed it is bad form, especially at work where it can make the team appear unfriendly and unaccommodating.
其他人也认为这不是一个明智的选择，尤其是在工作中，这会让团队显得不友好和冷漠。
'My last workplace had a WhatsApp chat for our team to send info to each other on and most of the people on there just replied with a thumbs up. I don't know why but it seemed a little bit hostile to me,' one woman said.
一位女士称：“我上家公司建了一个WhatsApp群组，大家可以互发消息。大多数人都只在群里回一个‘点赞’表情。我不知道为什么，但是对我来说这有点冒犯。”

Some were less offended by the thumbs-up emoji but felt the heart symbol was actually the most inappropriate.
有些人没那么讨厌点赞表情，但他们觉得爱心符号更让人不适。

网友评论道：“事实上，我觉得工作信息中的爱心符号很奇怪。当有人说‘我新养了一只小猫’或‘苏茜做得很好’时，我会发爱心表情。”
