Baristas at my favorite coffee shop are talking about emoting (in a game).

Barista one: "but what does the word (emoting) mean? Does it come from emoticon?"

Barista two: "yeah, I think so."

I want so so bad to "um, actually" them but this is my favorite coffee shop in the entire city and I am trying to pretend to be a Normal Person. I was soo close to doing it too.

(For context, I am sitting at a table and they are behind the counter. I would have to go out of my way to talk to them. I am very clearly Not Invited to the Conversation. )
