"Multiocular O," eh?
I know a Half-Life Houndeye when I see one. 😏

Edit: I did this knowing full-well that it won't render in any way like in the post. Unicode is not magic, folx! The font still needs to handle this random string of bits. I'm sorry to have disillusioned a few of you… 😬
58unfortunately tricks like these are highly dependent on the way text is rendered, i found a wonderful circle character that made for great eye outlines for my nickname, rendered fine on my phone but awful on pc. shame cos it really was perfect
30Damn that would have been nice. The big circles are a nice alternative, though. ;)

For me ZWJ is not working on Eternity, Firefox and Chrome, on top of that the gender symbol is not recognised in Chrome.

Isn't Multiocular o the letter that as been used literally once, and yet we decided to include it in Unicode. But the original implementation had to many circles meaning we had a letter that has been used literally once and we fucked up in copying it.
32Yep, exactly. After someone pointed it out on twitter, unicode consortium updated the standard to increase the number of eyes to the correct number (10), but so far I haven't seen a single font that actually implemented the change. At least for me, ꙮ shows up with just seven eyes.
28The purpose of Unicode is to be able to represent everything humans have written. Doesn't matter if correct or not.
There are some Chinese characters that appear only once in written text, but they happen to be just typos of copying other text. They exist in Unicode.
5With all of those obscure characters that they keep on adding, you'd think they'd have the decency to have separate sets for japanese and chinese characters. But nope, those are all lumped together into the CJK Unified Ideographs block. Whether a character shows up chinese-style or japanese-style depends on the font.
2That's correct. The mistake made was making an error while transcribing the same symbol into Unicode

Man made horrors beyond belief
20Can somebody paste these as text into the comments? I’m on mobile but would love to send some of these characters to a friend with zero context.
14I met an angel the other day, but I couldn't keep the stare.
(also i didn't really know which eyes to look into to hold eye contact)
