It all started in 2016 when Johnson put out an Instagram post which in conclusion read, “insert nonexistent pickup truck emoji here.” Soon after it became a norm for The Rock to insert non-existent pickup truck emoji* in many of his tweets.
The Ford Angle:
The video posted by Johnson shows a blue pickup truck that has a Ford angle too. It was proposed to the Consortium by Ford, the American automaker in 2017. However, the proposal was rejected back then. Ford then re-submitted a proposal of a blue pickup truck in May 2018 and did not mention the company name anywhere. It was only after the idea got approved that Ford announced that it was behind the truck emoji on July 17, 2019, The day is celebrated as World Emoji Day.
Reportedly anybody can propose an emoji that has to get approved by a Silicon Valley-based non-profit organisation Unicode Consortium. If approved, the emoji takes around two years to appear on people’s keyboards.
