Yeah. I like the stickers used in messaging in Asia. Asians, in my experience, were using this years before the US, and their messaging apps had it before Facebook.
I can type "sad" in Line and it'll show me a bunch of different characters with sad expressions [1] [2]. The stickers can make conversation more succinct.
Line is popular in Japan, Taiwan, Thailand and Indonesia. I have no affiliation. This came to mind when I read what you wrote =)
