J Just Tom. , I'm amazed that I can "get" the cultural references in your "emoji-grams".
I guess it's true that a picture is worth a thousand words (or, in the second example, a dozen emojis is worth 3 words 😄).

Same way as for text: I highlighted it and then clicked the font size icon. (looks like the default size is 15) so select a number bigger 🔭 or smaller🔬.

You are too young to remember that one. Had you been a [geeky, unpopular] middle-schooler in the late 70’s or early 80’s, you would have practically memorized every line of that and a bunch of other Monty Python sketches. Back then everybody watched the same 4 or 5 TV channels, and if anything good aired, people would be quoting memorable lines from it to each other all the next day. Especially Monty Python, or Clint Eastwood westerns.

Your guess was so close, though.

That would have been a reference I wouldn’t have gotten...
I edited my post to include the full length sketch - I didn’t realize the one I linked cut off short.

My brother-n-law was/is a Monty Python fan, I have a hard time understanding them sometimes, that sketch you posted was funny!👍

My uncle used to drink RC by the case, we loved it when we were kids, haven’t had it in years. Do they still make it?

I just realized the clip I posted cut off short. I think I now successfully edited my post to link the full sketch.

I haven’t seen RC cola in years, but if anybody has, I would be curious to hear about it, and get some.
