🤓 "nerd face" emoji (copy and paste)

A smiling yellow face with glasses, often with teeth showing, originally buck teeth on most platforms.

Meaning of the nerd face Emoji

While often used by people calling themselves nerds in a self-deprecating way, the nerdy glasses paired with buck teeth can evoke anti-Asian stereotypes, and the default yellow color of emoji faces may push this into racist "yellowface" territory. Some platforms have redesigned it to remove buck teeth, acknowledging potential harm, while others still include buck teeth in their designs.
