Yep, wooden emojis, a joke about something that was already kind of absurd, are actually doing good in the world.
Last year, Conan O’Brien presented a bit about wood emojis that were handcrafted by Nick Offerman. Following that episode, people were actually into the idea of buying those wood emojis and Conan actually had them made.
They sold better than hotcakes.
As of now, over $93,000 has been raised for the Children’s Defense Fund Action Council. Let’s all hope that things like this, Will Ferrell’s spring day training stunt to benefit organizations fighting against cancer, and Kurt Braunohler’s jet skiing to send goats to Africa, keep happening more and more everyday.
