Meaning and Interpretation
So this is one of the Three Wise Monkeys, right? The one who covers his eyes. In chat, it basically means 'I didn't see that!' or 'Nope, not looking!' It's super versatile. Use it when you're caught red-handed doing something you shouldn't, or when you see something super awkward or cringe. It's like a playful way to say 'My bad!' or to just pretend you're blind to the situation. Kinda like 👀 (peeking) but the total opposite—pretending to be oblivious.
