The "φ(。。*)" emote, also known as the "Worry Writer" emote, is a Japanese emoticon that typically represents anxiety, stress, or worry. It features a face with a furrowed brow and a mouth drawn in a straight line, with two vertical lines on either side of the face to indicate sweat drops. The "φ" symbol represents the forehead, while the "(。。*)" symbols represent the eyes and mouth, respectively. It is commonly used in online communication, particularly in chat rooms and forums, to express feelings of unease or concern.
