The emote "\(-_- )" is commonly known as the "Queem band" emote, and it is often used to express frustration, disappointment, or resignation. The name "Queem band" comes from a mistranslation of the Japanese word for "sweat drop," which is often depicted in anime and manga as a vertical line with a small circle at the top. The emote has become popular on social media and messaging platforms as a way to convey a sense of exasperation or defeat.
